Providence Day Vs Cox Mill HS (Charlotte Hoops Challenge): This game will be feature some of the top prospects in the state in the class of 2018 and 2019. Cox Mill HS features 2018 Guard Rechon Black who has already committed to UNC as well as 2019 Wing Wendell Moore who has recently narrowed his list down to 10 schools. Providence Day features its own dynamic duo in 2018 Guards Devon Dotson who has committed to Kansas and Guard Trey Wertz who has committed to Santa Clara. The X factor of this game could end up being who steps up as the 3rd scorer for either team, for Cox Mill it could end up being Caleb Stone-Carrawell.
Overhills HS vs Terry Sanford HS: This matchup has been a good one over the years and there should be no difference this season as both of these teams feature impressive talent. Terry Sanford features 2018 Guard Malik Johnson who currently holds Mid-Major offers but has picked up interest from high major programs. While Overhills has the dynamic duo backcourt of 2018 Guard Latrell Lloyd and Guard Zavian Mclean who has been on a tear all summer and preseason. You can expect a lot of buckets, dunks, defense and intensity in this one without a doubt.
Hoke County vs Freedom Christian: Technically it’s not even a game that’s going to count on either team’s record due to the fact that it’s taking place in a jamboree but this has all the makings of being a very interesting matchup. Hoke County features Point Guard Dakari Johnson who can fill up the stat sheet at any given moment and Forward Silas Love who is a walking double/double. While Freedom Christian has the backcourt tandem of Jamahri Harvey and Brandon Murray teamed up with newcomer Milos Stajic. They key matchup in this game may very well end up being the Milos vs Silas matchup, both have the height and skillset to play at the next level but which one will impose their will ? The team that forces their style of play throughout this game will be the team that leaves victorious.
