Zaccai Allen Team Trezz 2028 Allen is a fast guard that consistently scored the ball all weekend long. Love his constant activity on the defensive side of the ball and he doesn’t stop moving that often offensively. Is a solod option as a secondary ball-handler and could develop into a solid two-way threat in time.
Ayo Awosanya Cota Elite 2028 Ayo was an impressive player that showed he can do virtually everything well on the court. He’s a next level athlete that can play above the rim, he can pass the ball well, defends and communicates well for a young wing. Love his motor and competitiveness. One of the better rising prospects out of his area.
Chase Bollinger ACTS Elite 2028 If you like high IQ players, look no further than Bollinger. He dominated games with his passing, pump fakes and fadeaway jumpers. Despite being undersized, he dominated games with his shot making ability, passing and attacking of angles.
Travis Cooper Team Curry 2028 Cooper blazed the scorebooks with 3-pointers and breakaway layups. He does an excellent job of getting deflections that lead to easy scores on the opposite end. Has really good size for his position and a good basketball IQ.
Eddie Cota Jr. Cota Elite 2028 Tremendous point guard prospect that made passing the ball look easy. When he wasn’t scoring, he was setting his teammates up for easy looks along the perimeter and inside the paint. When he looked to score, he showed a nice looking pull-up jumper and the ability to finish with either hand inside.
Reginald Gray III 7th Nation 2028 Very strong lefty that can power his way to the basket through most defenders. Showed some crafty moves along the perimeter and a solid in-between game when defenses tried to push him away from the basket. One of the better all-around offensive packages in his division.
Ray Herring Atlanta Swish 2028 Ray can flat out score the ball. He gets downhill off the dribble, makes shots at odd angles and gets to the free throw line regularly. He’s the type of player to score over 20+ consistently within the flow of the game. Doesn’t force much.
Camden Hill Team Curry 2028 Hill stands around 6’6″ and uses his size and finishing ability well for an 8th grader. Rebounded the ball at a high level, boxed out and ran the floor in a way that you love to see from a post player. A lot to like long term.
Antoine Moreman Jr. Team Curry 2028 Outstanding lead guard that plays with an advanced skillset & an advanced feel for the game. Made timely passes, timely shots and got key defensive stops every time his team needed it. I’d be shocked if he wasn’t a productive varsity player from Day 1 in high school. Well on his way to garnering many accolades in the coming years.
Brelyn Moses Team Curry 2028 Many people consider Brelyn as one of the top players in his class & he showed why. He’s as versatile as they come in 8th grade. Excellent athleticism, solid ball-handling skills and great size for his position. Will rise above the rim to hammer it home on drives to the rim & can knock down the jumper in rhythm. Excellent wing prospect.
Aaron Parker Jr. Garner Road 2028 Parker was a bright spot that scored the ball efficiently and made plays on the defensive side of the ball as well. Has really good size, length and versatility on the floor. Will be a productive player in high school and possibly beyond as his game & height continue to expand.
Jaleek Parson Warriors Life Elite 2028 Parson is one of the fastest guards with the ball that you’ll find. Very quick and changes directions at the drop of a dime. Defensively, he sits down well in a stance and hounds opposing teams point guards without fouling.
Lonnie Porter ACTS Elite 2028 Porter is due for a breakout travel season. One of the purest scoring guards in the 8th grade division but also effortlessly makes plays for others. The best way to describe his game is by calling him “smooth” with the ball. Made his case as a top guard in his class in NC.
Jeremiah Russ Cota Elite 2028 Russ did an excellent job of moving without the ball. Majority of his points came from catch & shoot situations and from filling in open lanes on fastbreaks. When he sees one shot fall, more are bound to fall through the net sooner than later. Excellent scoring guard.
Isaiah Walker NET Foundation 2028 Walker has some shifty moves that he converts regularly during the games. As a primary ball-handler, he got to wherever he wanted and made life easy for his teammates in the process. Very crafty lead guard that will make a name for himself over time.
Keshawn Wilson NET Foundation 2028 It’s arguable that Wilson had one of the best weekends on both sides of the ball. He applied a ton of pressure defensively and offensively was much of the same. He excels at getting downhill and converts floaters around the rim.
