I was fortunate enough to spend 24 hours over 2 days watching the class of 2024 players compete and make a name for themselves. Here are some of my stand-outs for an exciting weekend of competitive basketball.
2024 6’1 Reginald Reinhardt Reginald Reinhardt 6'0" | PG Wellington | 2024 State FL Guard
Reinhardt is a physically tough do it all guard. This stalky 2024 prospect loves initiating contact when finishing around the rim. With a college-ready frame, great perimeter jump shot, and an ability to finish in traffic with contact.
Reginald will be playing at the next level. College coaches should start paying attention now, in my personal opinion I believe him to be a top 5 combo guard for 2024 in the state. He’s without a doubt the reason his Stampede squad are currently 4-0 in the passion region.
2024 6’4 Ryan Blout Guard
Ryan was hands down the best shooter in the gym for 2024. One game shooting a remarkable 7 threes. But it doesn’t stop there, Blout is physical and loves to do the dirty work and rebound.
He’s able to handle the ball in transition and finish around the rim with both hands. Another prospect with a college-ready frame, I expect Blout to start popping up on college coaches’ radars very soon.
2024 5’8 Tyrese Mayo Point Guard
Mayo was the backbone of his Fill The Lane squad. The two games I watched this scrappy guard play he didn’t disappoint. At times he seemingly scored at will. Topping the weekend off with a 36 point game.
He shot the 3 ball well, but what really caught my attention was his ability to get in the paint and finish with a layup or floater over taller defenders. Expect big things from him this travel season.
2024 6’1 Trey Murray Trey Murray 6'2" | PG Wesley Chapel | 2024 State FL Point Guard
Trey Murray Trey Murray 6'2" | PG Wesley Chapel | 2024 State FL set out this weekend to make a statement and put people on notice and did just that. This scrappy Tampa guard was taking pride in his defensive effort and team leadership. Trey shot behind the arc spot up with great efficiency.
What really stood out was when Heart and Hustle Elite needed a basket they called on this guard and his slithery finishing ability slipping thru the defense and finishing at the rim. Murray also demonstrated an effective handle, keeping composure in transition when pressed. This PG was one of my favorite prospects to watch this weekend.
