Justin Bailey Justin Bailey 6'1" | PG Blue Ridge | 2022 State SC – Blue Ridge HS
Bailey piled up the numbers in the score column this past season. Bailey a left-handed guard averaged 23.2 ppg, 8.4 rebounds and 4.4 assists for the Fighting Tigers last season. Bailey was able to get the ball into the gaps at times along with making solid passes to teammates. Bailey didn’t play much at all this summer with the Coid-19 Pandemic.
Nakeem Isaac Nakeem Isaac 6'4" | SF Sumter | 2022 State SC – Sumter HS
Isaac was very good here today with his physical play around the cup. Isaac bullied players to the rim and rebounded the ball on both sides of the floor. Isaac plays the game with a competitive edge and a aggressive matter. Prep Hoops watched Isaac scored 31 points in a game today. Isaac scored most of his points around the paint today and has the ability to step-out on the perimeter.
Sincere Pearson Sincere Pearson 6'1" | SF Lakewood | 2022 State SC – Sumter HS
Pearson has continue to impress us over the past few months. Pearson came on strong with the Carolina Pressure earlier this summer. Pearson didn’t play on the varsity last season for the Gamecocks. Pearson was able to knockdown three pointers if he wasn’t diving on the floor or taking a charge. Pearson just like Isaac leave it all on the floor for Head Coach Bryan Brown.
Samuel Perry Samuel Perry 6'2" | CG Christ Church | 2022 State SC – Christ Church (pictured on the front)
Perry took the summer off during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Perry came out on fire on a few occasions today with his outside shooting. Perry shot the ball at a high clip and a productive clip. Perry didn’t look to forces anything with his play today. Perry averaged 9.2 ppg last season for the Cavaliers (24-2). Perry has plenty of varsity basketball experience since being on the team since the 8th grade.
Edmundas Doviltis Edmundas Doviltis 6'3" | CG Trinity Collegiate | 2022 State SC – Trinity Collegiate (Darlington)
This was my first time seeing Doviltis play here at the Top 250 Expo. Doviltis a physical guard from Lithuania really has a good understanding of the game. Doviltis really understands spacing and playing away from the ball. Doviltis will pop off screens for open looks and knockdown shots.
Amauri Johnson Amauri Johnson 6'2" | SG Christ Church | 2022 State SC – Christ Church
Johnson is making a move over from Wren HS to Christ Church this coming season. Johnson a left-handed guard-wing has a nice-mid range game and likes to play the game in transition. Johnson will be a great addition to a already talented team with the likes of John Butler John Butler 7'0" | PF Christ Church Episcopal | 2021 State #51 Nation SC , Jordan Butler Jordan Butler 6'11" | PF Christ Church | 2023 State #57 Nation SC , Samuel Perry Samuel Perry 6'2" | CG Christ Church | 2022 State SC , Mason Johnstone Mason Johnstone 6'7" | PF Christ Church | 2022 State SC and Bennett Rogers Bennett Rogers 6'1" | CG Christ Church | 2021 State SC .
Tre McLeod Tre McLeod 6'0" | CG Trinity Collegiate | 2022 SC – Trinity Collegiate (Darlington)
McLeod brings toughness to the floor for the Titans. McLeod a defensive back on the football field can knockdown the 3-ball when needed. McLeod plays the game very well in the passing lanes and isn’t afraid to sacrifice his body for a charge.
Aaron Medley Aaron Medley 6'2" | PG Laurence Manning | 2022 State SC – Laurence Manning Academy
Medley will have plenty of chances to be one of the go-to guys for Head Coach Will Epp this season. Medley a slender-sleek guard was able to connect on a few short jumpers. Medley still must get stronger and more physical for the down the road.
Marcus Saunders Marcus Saunders 6'2" | SG Christian Academy of Myrtle Beach | 2022 State SC – Conway Christian
Saunders a off guard needs time and space for his shot. Saunders can knockdown three pointers and seems a best fit off the ball. Saunders has a good shot form and seems to be shot ready when he receives it.
