A move from GMC to St. Francis and playing with Team Dickerson has already paid dividends as Keith Robbins Keith Robbins 6'5" | SG TD Prep | 2022 State GA picked up an offer from Xavier on September 1.

State
GA
– Sequoyah
(Up from No. 87)
Not many players filled it up more than Dylan Wolle Dylan Wolle 6'3" | SG Sequoyah | 2022 State GA . He had some offensive eruptions throughout the summer and carried the Georgia Legacy offensively, helping put the independent program on the map as one of Georgia’s best 16U groups. Wolle is an elite shooter from the mid-range and three-point line. He’s always on balance and rises to get clean looks at the hoop. Dylan has strong footwork in the paint and can score out of the post when needed. He is going to have a breakout season at Sequoyah and already has Mercer and Jacksonville offers in his back pocket with Belmont on verge of adding to the list.

(Up from Unranked)
A dynamic scoring guard that put up points and assists this offseason for the D-Favors Celtics, Mitchell Taylor Mitchell Taylor 6'2" | PG Westlake | 2022 State GA has caught the attention of D-I schools, namely CSU Bakersfield who was among the first to show interest. Taylor is tough with the ball in his hands. He’s able to create separation and get into the heart of the defense to either score or set up teammates. The duo of he and Mason Lockhart Mason Lockhart 6'6" | PF Columbia | 2022 State GA should have Carver-Atlanta contending for a postseason bid.
45. 6-6 F
Aidan Hadaway
Aidan
Hadaway
6'6" | SF
Lafayette | 2022
State
GA
– LaFayette
(Up from Unranked)
The best motor I saw all offseason belonged to Aidan Hadaway Aidan Hadaway 6'6" | SF Lafayette | 2022 State GA . The habitual double-double man plays like his hair is on fire, flying all over the court. Hadaway covers ground like a gazelle and never gets tired. He swoops in for rebounds and always brings energy in the paint. The lefty played up in 17U and was the most consistent rebounder the state had to offer. With a little more fine tuning, Hadaway could be a legit D-I prospect.
50. 6-6 F
Izaiyah Nelson
Izaiyah
Nelson
6'8" | PF
Marietta | 2022
State
GA
– Marietta
(Up from No. 75)
Another energetic forward, Izaiyah Nelson Izaiyah Nelson 6'8" | PF Marietta | 2022 State GA is more than just a rim protector, he’s now becoming a reliable scorer. Nelson wipes the glass at a high rate and can score around the bucket, but his three-point shot is steadily improving as well. He has the upside to add on some more guard skills and if he does, Nelson could become a household name. D-II’s and Low Major D-I’s will want to track his progress. His best basketball is still ahead of him.
