Here is a look at some of the best wings I got to see in person on September 27. There were 20 teams with five games going at once, giving us a smorgasbord of great basketball.
2022 6-5 W Sebastian Tidor Sebastian Tidor 6'5" | SF East Paulding | 2022 State GA – East Paulding
The steady improvement of Sebastian Tidor Sebastian Tidor 6'5" | SF East Paulding | 2022 State GA gives him plenty of intrigue. He gets taller and taller and better and better. When Tidor decides to get to the bucket, his long strides cover up so much ground as he needs only one, maybe two dribbles to get to the rim. His athleticism has improved over the past year, now able to throw down dunks with ease in game settings. Sebastian still has a funky looking three-point shot, but his confidence has improved and he’s capable of hitting a handful each game. Tidor’s always had a great motor, especially on defense. He loves to hit the glass and with his wingspan, he can disrupt passing lanes and block shots. He made a statement all weekend and tipped it off with 23 points (3 threes), 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks including the game-winning layup in sudden death overtime. Consistently playing against elite competition and getting as many quality reps in as possible will be paramount for Tidor’s growth.
2021 6-6 W Elijah Williams Elijah Williams 6'3" | SF Thrive Christian Academy | 2021 State GA – Providence Christian
Elijah Williams Elijah Williams 6'3" | SF Thrive Christian Academy | 2021 State GA is a great slasher that does a good job of attacking baseline. He’s strong enough to power through defenders when he squares his shoulders. Williams has a solid three-point shot that can be lethal when in rhythm. He’s got a lot of tools to work with and it will be interesting to see what he does as an encore after a breakout junior season.
2022 6-5 W Destin Logan – Parkview
Able to play the wing or even handle point guard duties which he did so a lot throughout camp, Destin Logan really is an attractive prospect. He’s got exceptional length and showed the ability to get downhill and play make for others. Logan can guard multiple positions and can be moved around all over the floor to create mismatches. The southpaw is a wiz in the classroom, already with over 20 college credits. His game will be on full display after moving to Parkview where he replaces Miles Kelly on the perimeter. Logan sank five threes en route to an impressive 21 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
2022 6-4 W Davis McCarn Davis McCarn 6'4" | SG Atrios Academy | 2022 State GA
A premier floor spacer that can bomb from distance, Davis McCarn Davis McCarn 6'4" | SG Atrios Academy | 2022 State GA proved his value at camp with his shooting ability. He’s got great size on the wing and stretches out defenses as he can shoot from 25-feet. McCarn nailed four threes and finished with 16 points and 5 rebounds in his first game of the day.
2022 6-3 W Jermaine Smoak Jermaine Smoak 6'3" | SF Heirway Christian | 2022 State GA – Cumberland Christian
A tough rugged slasher that can do the dirty work inside, Jermaine Smoak Jermaine Smoak 6'3" | SF Heirway Christian | 2022 State GA brought consistent play to the Top 250.
