Kendal Parker Kendal Parker 6'4" | NA lbs | SF Gray Collegiate | 2022 #NA Nation AL (2022) – Gray Collegiate – Team Power
Parker came across the border to play with the Augusta, GA based Team Power squad. Parker is coming off a strong June period with his Gray Collegiate team. Parker a versatile left-handed guard brings good energy to the floor. Kendal can play multiple positions on the floor along with being a great communicator on the floor. Parker doesn’t do just one thing well but sure does several things well to help your team win games.
TJ McElmurray TJ McElmurray 6'5" | SF Midland Valley | 2023 State SC (2023) – Midland Valley HS (Graniteville) – AC Elite (pictured on front)
TJ was really stalking the baseline today and on the other end of it were some above the rim dunks. McElmurray plays Quarterback – Safety for the Mustangs in the fall. McElmurray was a pleasant surprise here today with his activity around the basket and his productive scoring. McElmurray will sure to be a stock riser down the road.
Avantae Parker Avantae Parker 6'9" | PF Gray Collegiate | 2023 State SC (2023) – Gray Collegiate – Team USC Premier 16U
Parker and his teammates cruised in the game Prep Hoops was able to watch today. Parker a transfer from White Knoll HS has been a great addition to the roster for the War Eagles and Head Coach Dion Bethea. Parker a left-handed forward does his best work 2-4 feet from the cup. Avantae had several offensive rebounds today and always remained active on the floor.
Myles Squirewell Myles Squirewell 6'6" | PF Lakewood | 2023 State SC (2023) – Ridge View HS – Team USC Premier 16U
Squirewell knows where his bread his buttered. Myles gives you great production on the glass and put-back on the offensive end of the floor. Myles is always working for position down low while carving out space. Squirewell plays the game on contact and brings a blue collar mentality to floor every time he plays.
Nantambu Calhoun Nantambu Calhoun 5'11" | PG JL Mann | 2023 State SC (2023) – JL Mann HS (Greenville) – Team USC 2023 Elite
Calhoun does a good elevating on his jumper. Calhoun looks to create some havoc at times on the floor with his play. Nantambu was constant energy and always around the ball on both ends of the floor for Team USC.
Malik Smith (2023) – Butler HS (Augusta, GA) – AC Elite
Smith was a very PLEASANT surprise here today. Smith is a left-handed post player with a great set of hands and touch around the basket. Smith transferred in from Callaway HS (Hogansville, GA). Smith has good footwork for his size and is very crafty around the basket scoring the ball. Smith is a very deceptive for his size and actually handles the rock at times. Smith will use his wide frame to post-up and score around the basket. Smith was above average passer from the high post and recorded 5 assists according to my stats today along with scoring 23 points.
