2019 Park Vista guard AJ Mackrey was one of 53 upperclassmen and 86 total prospects in attendance at the Prep Hoops Florida Top 250 Expo on Saturday, Sept. 30th at DME Academy in Daytona Beach.
I caught up with Mackrey to talk about his time at the expo.

Mackrey stands at 5’11” and he has the ability to see the court with his point guard skills. He is a gifted passer and facilitator. If he can continue to develop a consistent outside jumper, then he’ll be a solid player. He is important to Park Vista this season as a junior.
