Bryson Graves Bryson Graves 6'1" | SG West Florence | 2023 State SC – Carolina Bad Boyz – West Florence HS
Graves came out on fire on Sunday knocking down shots and scoring the ball from all over. Bryson connected on 3 trey balls from behind the arc on his way to scoring 17 points. Bryson has a quick shot release and always seems to be around the ball to make a play.
Merel Burgess Merel Burgess 6'5" | PF Wilson | 2023 State SC – Carolina Bad Boyz – Wilson HS (Florence)
Burgess finished with 21 points in the game today. Merel a undersized post really understands how to use his body through contact and getting to the foul line. He has a nice touch from the foul line and generally converts most of his free throws while on the charity stripe. Burgess can be a true mismatch with his ability to face-up from the perimeter or take you down on the block.
Justin Daniels Justin Daniels 6'2" | PG Manning | 2023 State SC – Team USC – Manning HS
Daniels looks to be a halftime entertainment show at time with his athleticism. Justin looks to stalk the basket and tries to dunk whenever he can. Nicknamed “Boobie” Mr. Daniels has gave an early pledge to Jacksonville University before his senior season. Daniels can create his own shot with no problems while on the floor. Justin plays the game in the passing lanes and really looks to manufacture points at times with steals going the other direction.
Donovan Rivers Donovan Rivers 6'8" | PF The Skill Factory | 2023 GA – Carolina Pressure – Ridge View HS (pictured on front)
Rivers really looked good finishing around the basket and playing like a true big man down in the post. Donovan is a left-handed forward who will play with his back to the basket. He really has a nice set of hands and reactions when comes to the ball. Rivers has really done a good job of getting his body into shape and really looked good running the floor today.
I expect to see Donovan has his recruitment pickup down the road for sure.
TJ McElmurray TJ McElmurray 6'5" | SF Midland Valley | 2023 State SC – AC Elite – Midland Valley HS (Graniteville)
McMurray is truly a very solid athlete. TJ plays Quarterback for the football team in the fall and hoops in the winter. He tends to be of the grid a bit over in the Western part of the State in Aiken County. TJ has a nice mid-range game to go with his ability to rebound on both ends of the floor. He truly is a highflyer at times on the hardwood.
Kane Eanes Kane Eanes 6'3" | SG Hilton Head Prep | 2023 State SC – Big Shots SC Elite / Team Salley – Hilton Head Prep
Kane was able to pop off some screens and down knockdown some shots from behind the arc today. Eanes does a good job moving without the ball and looking to retrieve his shot on the floor. He never seems to force his shot or pass selection and always seems under control. Kanes averaged 12.4 ppg this season for the Dolphins.
