John, has great hands for a big man . He can play inside and out. He has a soft touch around the rim and a nice outside shot. He is difficult for opposing teams to defend . He has offers from Grambling and Texas Southern.

Braylan, was district 2-5A Mvp last season . He averaged over 12 points 2 steals and 2 blocks a game . He led Ruston to the state quarterfinals. He is great at controlling the paint and can guard multiple positions. He can score off the dribble , on the block , or from behind the arc. Braylan seems to always make the right decisions with the basketball and gets teammates involved.
