5-10 G Malique Johnson – Our Lady of Mercy
Malique Johnson has displayed a mature floor game, averaging 14.5 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 2.9 steals as a freshman. Johnson has been able to loosen up the defense with his outside shot and has made plays off the dribble with his passing ability. Malique provides good defensive energy and a strong motor.
6-6 W David Clark David Clark 6'7" | PF Wheeler | 2024 State GA – Campbell
Clark has the size and athleticism to become an attractive prospect over time. He’s carried much of the scoring burden for a rebuilding Campbell program, pitching in 13.9 points and 5.3 rebounds. David is a willing three-point shooter that is getting better at scoring off the dribble and around the rim.
5-11 PG CJ Brown – Walker
With a good feel for the game and a quick first step, CJ Brown is a solid prospect for Walker. He’s shown flashes throughout the year of his high-level skill set. When he stays aggressive, he’s at his best. Brown can get downhill and finish through traffic. He will need to develop his three-point shot to further round out his arsenal. He’s putting up 9.6 points and 4.8 rebounds.
6-0 G Tahai Morgan – Lanier
“Boogie” Morgan has already hit timely shots early on in his career. He has a nice scoring touch, able to hit floaters over shot blockers. Morgan plays extremely hard. He loves to crash the glass and earn second chance points. Boogie gravitates to big moments and can be trusted in important spots.
6-7 F Jayce Nathaniel – Lanier
The long mobile forward has tools to work with. He’s athletic and can battle in the paint, grabbing rebounds and altering shots. Nathaniel will need to continue working on his offensive game and developing a go-to post move, but his defense has proven to be varsity-ready.
5-8 G Christian Anderson – Lovett
Christian Anderson has been Lovett’s best and most consistent scoring guard this season. He’s a dangerous three-point shooter that can get hot in a hurry. While his outside shooting opens up the defense, he’s able to attack with the dribble and set up teammates. Anderson’s ability to create his own shot has been a boon for the Lions.
