The Burlington School 2021 Forward Kuluel Mading Kuluel Mading 6'10" | C The Burlington School | 2021 State NC : Walking in as the highest ranked player in the gym he was expected to perform and he left the gym as one of the top performers on the day. He displayed his scoring ability and athleticism but we also got the chance to see some much improved ballhandling skills from him as well.
Mount Airy 2022 G/F Caden Fitzgibbons: Smooth overall game, knocks down shots from multiple levels but really showcased his three point shooting. Gets good lift on his shot so he doesn’t have much of an issue shooting over opponents that may be taller. Doesn’t try to overdribble and displayed an ability to finish around the basket with both hands.
Burlington School 2021 PG Jamarii Thomas Jamarii Thomas 6'1" | PG The Burlington School | 2021 State NC : Continues to impress with his ability to be an outstanding facilitating PG but can go get a bucket whenever he needs to. Time and time again he found open teammates, converting passes that would be difficult for most. On the defensive side of the ball he can be just as good, using his strength to defend multiple positions.
Salem Baptist 2021 Forward Shad Thomas Shad Thomas 6'6" | SF Salem Baptist Christian | 2021 State NC : He’s a finisher and rim protector at this point, as he can make plays above the rim on both ends of the court. Potentially he has a chance to be a very nice overall prospect as he continues to round out his game.
High Point Christian 2021 Guard KJ Garrett: One of the first things that you notice about him is that he plays the game at his own pace. A gifted playmaker that plays solid defense without fouling, he’s the type of guard that can give you production on both ends of the floor.
