Julen Iturbe Julen Iturbe 6'8" | PF Riverside | 2024 State #234 Nation SC – Riverside HS
Iturbe picked up an offer from North Carolina A&T this past weekend. Julen has a great skill level and also took 5 charges in one game to my calculations. Iturbe brought the ball up the floor today, rebounded it on both ends through contact, finished everything in sight and at times just made WINNING PLAYS.
Ellis Graham Ellis Graham 6'9" | PF Gray Collegiate | 2024 State #305 Nation SC – Gray Collegiate
Ellis is a great addition to the War Eagles front court with his ability to be a rim protector. Graham is still a RAW talent who continues to keep getting better and better every day. Ellis is more polished on the defensive end of the floor right now with his ability to alter and challenge shots.
Yannick Smith Yannick Smith 6'3" | SG Summerville | 2024 State SC – Summerville HS
Yannick can fill it up from perimeter when he’s not stalking the baseline. Smith is a wide receiver on the Green Wave football in the fall. Yannick is a gifted scorer and athlete for the Green Wave.
Jaquarious Patterson Jaquarious Patterson 6'6" | SF T.L. Hanna | 2024 State SC – TL Hanna HS
Patterson a rangy forward does his best work around the basket. Jaquarious has a nice long wingspan that helps be disruptive in the passing lanes at times.
Brady Poole Brady Poole 6'1" | SG Chesnee | 2024 State SC – Chesnee HS
Poole is a SHOOTER who really piled up some numbers last season for the Eagles. Brady and his brother Coyie get to team up in the backcourt for Head Coach Andy Pitt.
Grant Beaton Grant Beaton 6'6" | PF West Florence | 2024 State SC – West Florence HS
Beaton is a nice addition to the green and gold Knights roster. Grant is a bruiser down in the paint and a transfer from nearby King’s Academy.
Caden Giles Caden Giles 6'10" | C Nation Ford | 2024 State SC – Nation Ford HS
Giles plays Quarterback on the football team for the Falcons. Caden has really sprouted up in the past year. Giles has good mobility and footwork around the paint. Can the Falcons make some noise this season in the Upstate?
Jordan Hunter Jordan Hunter 6'6" | PF Bull City Prep | 2025 NC – Camden HS
Hunter is a very nimble forward for the Bulldogs. Jordan will at times knock you on your block with his play as a mover-screener. He has a big set shoulders and he doesn’t mind using them from time to time either.
Joshua Nelson Joshua Nelson 6'4" | SF Spring Valley | 2024 State SC – Spring Valley HS
Nelson plays his position well around the paint for the Vikings. Joshua finishes putbacks on the glass and just outworks people on the floor at times.
Caleb Temoney – Spring Valley HS
Caleb was a pleasant surprise today with his play for the Vikings. Temoney a small forward was able connect on some perimeter jumpers. Caleb has a nice and long athletic frame to patrol around the perimeter.
Ghaleb Wilson Ghaleb Wilson 6'2" | SF Andrew Jackson | 2024 State SC – Andrew Jackson HS (Kershaw)
TOUGH, TOUGH, TOUGH is one word to describe this young man. Ghaleb spent plenty of time on the deck driving the ball to the cup, picking up a loose ball, taking a charge or running into the bleachers to save a ball from going out of bounce. Enough said here TOUGH young man and better kid.
Franklin Davis Franklin Davis 6'3" | SG Landrum | 2024 State SC – Landrum HS
Davis is best suited off the ball at times for the Cardinals. Franklin was able to connect on some jumpers today from downtown. The Cardinals will rely on him to provide some leadership on the roster for Head Coach Lyn Smith.
DaMario Saxon DaMario Saxon 6'1" | CG North Augusta | 2024 State SC – North Augusta HS
Saxon is super athletic and really brings it on the defensive end of the floor.
Jaylen Tillman – Richland Northeast HS
Tillman was quite a first impression for Prep Hoops here today. Jaylan originally came down from the Upstate. Tillman will be a nice addition to the Cavaliers rosters this season with his ability to play around the paint.
Nick Sweet Nick Sweet 6'3" | SG Powdersville | 2024 State SC – Powdersville HS
Sweet plays the game with a lot of hustle when on the floor. Nick can bury open shots when given the chance and always seems to be on the move and active away from the ball.
Amari Washington Amari Washington 6'5" | SF Stratford | 2024 State SC – Stratford HS (Goose Creek)
Washington transferred over from North Charleston HS to Stratford HS this season. Washington is rangy forward who likes to play out on the perimeter. Amari will look to lead the Knights this coming season.
Alex Atkinson Alex Atkinson 6'9" | C Lower Richland | 2024 State SC – Lower Richland HS (Hopkins)
Atkinson is run-jump-athlete who plays well around the paint. Alex is a quick leaper and really looks to alter and challenge shots on the defensive end of the floor. Atkinson does a good job of running the floor.
Sully Gay Sully Gay 6'3" | SG Catawba Ridge | 2024 State SC – Beaufort HS
Gay made the move over from Beaufort Academy this off season. Sully is best suited playing out on the perimeter. Gay runs on the Grassroots Circuit with H2 Elite.
