West Kellett West Kellett 6'4" | SF Woodmont | 2023 State SC – Woodmont HS (Piedmont) – Upward Stars Upstate 17U
Kellett does all the little things to help your squad win games. West rebounds the ball extremely well from his position on the floor. Kellett makes simple hustle plays and always looks to be around the ball. He can really impact the game from anywhere even without scoring the ball much.
Kameron Foman Kameron Foman 6'4" | SF Hartsville | 2023 State SC – Hartsville HS – Upward Stars SE 3SSB Select 17U
Foman does his best work around the glass just on effort. Kameron picks up loose change and pickups for an easy 2 points every time. He’s highly efficient just staying active and hitting the glass on both ends. Foman is not flashy at all with what he does but, when he’s on the floor he produces.
Ian Goings Ian Goings 6'3" | SF Lugoff-Elgin | 2023 State SC – Lugoff-Elgin HS – Carolina Pressure 2024 (pictured on front)
Ian is a JYD on the floor with his relentless play around the basket. He really embraces his position and role around the cup. Goings plays bigger than his size which at times it measures his HEART and PASSION. Ian plays the game extremely hard and at times it’s not pretty what he does but, he’s productive in the paint. He plays the game through contact all day long.
Ladarius Cloud Ladarius Cloud 5'9" | PG Great Falls | 2024 SC – Lancaster HS – Carolina Pressure 2024
Cloud scraps for everything he does on the hardwood. Ladarius will scrap on defensive end and cause problems for opponents while finishing drives on the offensive end through contact. He finished with 11 points in a win over Upward Stars SE 3SSB Southeast 2024 today.
Tristan Thompson Tristan Thompson 6'5" | SF Wilson | 2025 State #339 Nation SC – Wilson HS – Upward Stars SE 3SSB Southeast 2025
Thompson is highly effective around the paint area playing along the baselines. Tristan brings good activity and productive in his shot selection and rebounding ability. Tristan runs the floor and fills the lane in transition. He was able to pick up some steals today by getting deflections in the passing lanes.
