2025 6’4 G Zane Restelli – Game Elite
Restelli is a name to know in this 2025 class. He’s a gifted passer and has excellent court vision. He always seemed to know where his teammates were going to be and often saw plays before they were happening. Restelli also proved to be a constant scoring threat from all three levels. He would attack the rim hard and had great body control. He also fought for offensive rebounds and tip-ins. Restelli is a talented all-around guard that should get lots of attention in the future.
2024 6’5 G Amari McCottry – Power Five
McCottry had a great weekend, scoring in different ways and getting active on defense. He’s got good size and length for the position to match his athleticism. He controlled much of the ball-handling duties for this Power Five team out of Wisconsin and controlled the ball well. McCottry’s ability to drive and get into the paint opened up the rest of the offense. Defensively, he works hard and pressures ball-handlers with his quick hands and long arms. I think he has the ability to guard every position on the floor, that’s how versatile he is. McCottry certainly made the most of his trip to Atlanta.
2024 5’11 PG Clark Mastin Clark Mastin 5'11" | PG Eagle's Landing | 2024 State GA – Atlanta Express
I believe Mastin is one of the most underrated guards in this 2024 class. Mastin isn’t the biggest name on this Atlanta Express team but he’s the kind of point guard that coaches long for. Mastin does all the little things to help his team win. He was using his quick hands to get lots of steals and tipped passes on the defensive end. Despite being undersized, Mastin is more than willing to fight for rebounds inside and scrap for loose balls. Offensively, Mastin is a solid ball-handler that likes to feed his bigs inside. He doesn’t try to do too much but he’ll knock down the open three if you give it to him and capitalize on defensive mistakes.
2024 6’9 F Dennis Scott III Dennis Scott III 6'8" | PF Mt. Vernon | 2024 State GA – AE5
Scott may be the most highly recruited of this group but his play this weekend can not go unrecognized. He was picking defenses apart with his scoring and passing ability. Scott is most dangerous at the high post where he can shoot it, back you into the post, or space the floor for cutters and shooters. Scott’s versatility as a big man makes him extremely dangerous. His list of offers should grow rapidly over the next year.
2025 6’4 G Matthew Able – Team Huncho
Able is a gifted scorer and plays years beyond his age. He shoots it well from deep and off the dribble. He’s a solid ball-handler and has shown the ability to create his own shot in the half-court. If Able keeps growing and becomes more aggressive attacking the rim, he could be one of Georgia’s premier 2025 prospects.
