Arden Conyers Arden Conyers 6'7" | SF Westwood | 2023 State SC – Westwood HS – Upward Stars SE 3SSB Southeast 2023 (pictured on front)
Conyers has continued his hot play into Mid July. Arden has climbed up in the rankings and his recruitment has taken off this spring and summer. Conyers a big wing player can really knockdown shots on the perimeter and today showed he can slash to the cup at ease at times. Arden is looking to finish strong this coming week at the Adidas Boys 3SSB Open in Seal Beach, CA on the Grassroots Circuit.
Donovan Rivers Donovan Rivers 6'8" | PF The Skill Factory | 2023 GA – Ridge View HS – Team USC Premier 2023
Rivers a left-handed post player has really defined his frame in the past year. Donovan is highly effective around the paint with his jump hook and soft hands. He can step-out and knockdown the 15–17-foot jumper and at times extend it out to the 3-point line. Rivers likes to use the head-fake move to get defenders off the floor while absorbing contact.
Jamarcus Wilkins Jamarcus Wilkins 6'7" | PF Dorman | 2023 State SC – Dorman HS – Upward Stars Upstate 17U
Jamarcus is an ideal rim runner on the floor with his ability to move up and down the floor. Wilkins will challenge shots on the defensive end with his quick leaping ability. He was able to pick up some block shots today by defending around the cylinder. Jamarcus plays bigger than his size on the floor with his long wingspan.
Justice Johnson Justice Johnson 6'5" | SF Richland Northeast | 2023 State SC – Richland Northeast HS – HYB Raptors
Johnson is a Swiss Army Knife at times with his ability to play multiple positions on the floor. Justice handled the rock up the floor in transition and finished drives to the cup with both hands. Johnson will defend bigger players down in the post at times and then on the offensive end will overpower players to the cup. Justice is a bit of TWEENER who can bring good versatility to the floor for the Raptors. Justice was highly productive all long here today.
Jamari Briggs Jamari Briggs 6'6" | CG Christ | 2024 State NC – Hartsville HS – Upward Stars SE 3SSB Southeast 2023
Briggs was a bright spot for the Southeast 2023 squad today off bench. Jamari was effective slashing to the cup and leaking out in transition at times for some cheapies on the other end. Briggs has good body control to fight off defenders when heading to the cup.
