Continue ReadingThe Class of 2017 in NC is another group of youngsters that are solid at the big man spot, although the star power like the 2016 class is not here , there are still some legit players available. D2 and D3 coaches should def check the players listed below that could have big seasons.
- Village Christian 6’7, F/C Nassyr Daniels: Nas isn’t a player that’s going to create a bunch of offense on his own, however he does the small things that you like to see from a big. Things such as: running the floor, blocking shots, rebounding the ball and getting it to the guards, D2 schools should watch him closely
- South View HS, 6’6 F/C Vernon Mcwhite: Vernon is player with a lot of potential and is still raw at this point, he has some skills facing up to the basket and can step out and shoot the midrange shot. If he continues to add some bulk and back to the basket moves his recruitment could improve without a doubt, D3/NAIA schools should be blowing his phone up.
- Hoke County, 6’7, F Silas Love: Tucked away in the small town of Raeford this young man has been flying under the radar for a while now, he runs the floor well and finishes above the rim offensively. Defensively he’s a paint protector and is an outstanding rebounder, expect the offers to come in for Silas Love very soon
- 71st HS, 6’7 F/C Najee Thomas: Najee is another player that is very raw at this point but continues to improve each time he steps on the floor, he protects the basket well and will average a high amount of blocks this season. He’s a project player and any program that gets him will need to understand that but he can be a high reward player in a few years.
- East Bladen HS, 6’6, F John Bowen: Out of all the player listed, John is the most versatile out of the group, he can step out and shot the trey ball as well as putting the ball on the floor. He also is a very athletic player that could fit nicely into an up-tempo type team at the stretch forward spot.
