Syncere Harris Syncere Harris 5'6" | PG Mount Vernon | 2022 State GA (2022, N ATL Orangemen) – While scoring in bunches controlled the tempo and made great decisions, another undersized PG with tons of heart and savvy
Stephon Castle Stephon Castle 6'6" | CG Newton | 2023 State #29 Nation GA (2023, Atlanta Xpress) – One of the state’s best D1 PG prospects right now playing up in the 17U’s, such good size, control, awareness, glides along the floor
Tayden Owens Tayden Owens 5'9" | PG Cherokee | 2023 State GA (2023, Wood Elite) – Looked composed but still explosive in darting by defenders and being a smart distributor, when on his game awfully tough to deal with with shooting and driving
Elijah Crawford Elijah Crawford 6'1" | PG Brewster Academy | 2024 State #169 Nation NLG (2024, AOT, pictured above) – Possibly the best PG performance I saw all weekend, strong & steady and a load getting downhill, sweet stroke and high IQ passer
Tayshawn Griffith (2024, TSF) – Another good-looking guard prospect for this club, a crafty scorer at the 1 and was among the best rebounding guards I saw
Cade Simmons Cade Simmons 5'11" | CG Gainesville | 2023 State GA (2023, AC Georgia) – Loved his pairing with Brent Bowman Brent Bowman 6'3" | SG Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe | 2023 State GA , the noted shooter showed more of his dribble-drive game and surprising burst off the bounce
Gaddis Heath Gaddis Heath 6'3" | CG Westlake | 2022 State GA (2022, D-Favors Celtics) – Many instances where you just give him the ball and get out of the way, but at same time is a heady passer and sees his teammates for such a gifted scorer
Tyrhell Branch Tyrhell Branch 5'9" | PG Social Circle | 2022 State GA (2022, AC Georgia) – Speed and strength packed into a smaller package but no less difficult to get in front of, can really guard you
Melvin Smith (2021, Atlanta Lightning) – Everyone can handle and shoot it for the Lightning, loved Smith’s composure and cool handle, Joshton Mincey and Stanley Haliburton are two others with similar skills and so impressive was the whole Lightning bunch last weekend
Chase Ballard Chase Ballard 5'7" | PG Stephenson | 2021 State GA (2021, GA Canes) – Recent signing since my last publication with East Georgia State, so well deserved, may be 5-9 but plays PG with massive heart and the skill to go with it
Dillon Hunter (2022, GA Stars) – Perhaps not his best stuff in a prime time matchup with Game Elite’s Scott Henderson, but remains of course a top prospect nationally with a great body and top-notch skills as lead guard who can create and score
