Here is a breakdown of 14 local players who’ve already committed that highlights the potential impact they can make with their respective schools.
Quincy Allen Quincy Allen 6'7" | SF Maret | 2021 State #125 Nation MD | Colorado
Allen has grown into a very nice wing prospect who can not only score but has the eye for a good pass. He is a high major athlete who will certainly be able to hang in the Pac 12 and fill a myriad of roles at 6-foot-7. Colorado is a school that is known to develop pros and Allen has all the tools to become one down the road.
Ryan Conway Ryan Conway 6'0" | PG Dulaney | 2021 State #111 Nation MD | Seton Hall
Conway’s bucket-getting abilities intrigued the staff at Seton Hall, and to be quite frank, they should be intrigued by his scoring prowess. As a sophomore on the 17U EYBL, he was a standout performer with Team Melo as he led them in scoring while shooting exceptionally well from the field, three-point range, and the foul line. There’s no reason why Conway’s explosive scoring output should not be replicated at the next level.
Malcolm Dread Malcolm Dread 6'3" | SF Gonzaga | 2021 State MD | Richmond
Dread is the type of player that every coach loves to have in the locker room. He will fill whatever role is asked and do it to the best of his ability. Richmond is getting a hard-worker who is also a good athlete, a reliable defender, and a team player.
TJ Gadsden TJ Gadsden 6'6" | PF St. Andrew's | 2021 MD | George Mason
The staff at Mason is very excited about Gadsden’s versatility. At about 6-foot-7, he’s a plus athlete with a sneaky-good skill set and the intangibles of a winner. Look for Gadsden to grow into a leader sooner rather than later.
Garrett Johnson Garrett Johnson 6'7" | SG Episcopal | 2021 State VA | Princeton
Princeton landed an absolute steal in Garrett Johnson Garrett Johnson 6'7" | SG Episcopal | 2021 State VA . The 6-foot-7 wing came into his own this past season when you consider how well he embraced his role as one of the bigger players on his high school team and made a concerted effort to rebound the ball. Johnson is an excellent long-range shooter who converts at a high rate form the charity stripe and is steadily improving as a creator off the dribble.
Greg Spurlock | Coppin State
Spurlock is a hidden gem from the DMV that Coppin State has uncovered. At 6-foot-4, he’s a plus defender who can initiate offense and has special playmaking ability. It will be interesting to watch how he progresses at the next level.
D’Angelo Stines D’Angelo Stines 6'2" | CG Mount St. Joseph | 2021 State MD | Old Dominion
Stines enjoyed a breakout junior campaign and rightfully saw his recruitment trend up as a result. A skilled 6-foot-2 guard who can play on and off the ball, he will provide floor spacing, playmaking, and a commitment to the defensive end for the Monarchs. When you consider the track record of players that have come out of Mt. St. Joe and the impact they make at the next level, Stines is a safe bet to produce early and often in college.
Benny Williams Benny Williams 6'8" | SF St. Andrew's | 2021 #35 Nation FL | Syracuse
Williams is a great fit for Syracuse, especially on the defensive end. At 6-foot-8, his combination of length and athleticism will allow him to cover a lot of ground in their zone. Offensively, Williams can score from many locations on the court and this bodes well for his potential to grow into a productive player in the ACC.
