2022 6-1 CG DeMyron Williams – Walnut Grove
Talented athlete with lateral quickness and good wingspan. DeMyron projects to be an impactful perimeter defender. Offensively he can keep defenses honest with his outside shot. Williams has shown flashes of being able to slash to the rim.

has gotten better over time and has had his best moments over the travel ball season. He has yet to replicate the same success at the high school level but will have an opportunity to do so this year. Rudolph is an interesting prospect that still has his best basketball a year or two down the road. He’s wiry and has exceptional length. Consistency and knowing where his hot spots are will be a key factor for him. He doesn’t handle the ball well enough to be a full-time wing and is better suited as a stretch-four for now. His best offensive production came on the low block when he kept things simple and scored on baby hooks. I would like to see him be more efficient in face-up opportunities. He has a good enough touch to shoot over defenders and can make moves off the bounce. Adding strength will help his balance when play gets physical inside. I also like his defense better in the paint. He struggled at times to stay in front of guards in switches and got misdirected when guards hit him with crossovers. When he didn’t get stuck on an island on the perimeter, he was an effective rim protector. Schools will want to track Rudolph’s progress his senior year. He could be a major boon in due time.
2021 6-1 SG Kintavious Dozier – Lanett, AL
The lefty from Alabama was one of the best shooters in camp. He found his spots on the perimeter and drilled shots when he got his feet set. He showcased the ability to make some plays when driving baseline and used his athleticism to help snatch rebounds.
2021 6-5 W Matt Brown – Walker
A wing that can double as a power forward at times, Matt Brown has some tools to work with. He has the ability to start his own fast breaks by rebounding and pushing the ball up the floor. Brown will need to improve his creativity with the ball as he is more of a straight-line driver right now. When he gets space, he’s a dangerous three-point shooter.
2021 6-2 G Elijah Marsh – Redan
Glue guy that doesn’t force the issue. Quality defender and a good teammate. Had a nice floater in the lane and was not afraid to attack the teeth of the defense.
2021 5-9 PG Keontae Grider – Liberty County
Shifty guard that looked to get his defender off balance and then dish to the open man. Did the little things like setting back screens. Was an effective defender with quick hands and feet.
