Florida Top 250 Expo Prospect Report: Milos Merrick (2020)
2020 IMG guard Milos Merrick was one of 33 underclassmen and 86 total prospects in attendance at the Prep Hoops Florida Top 250 Expo on Saturday at DME Academy in Daytona Beach.
I sat down with Mack to talk about his time at the expo.
Q: What was your experience like in Daytona at the Prep Hoops Top 250 Expo?
A: It was great, I got to show everyone what I am capable of doing.
Q: Where did you first hear about it?
A: I first heard about it from my friend from Chicago, Max Williams, who attended it the year before and played well and got a write-up.
Q: What was the best thing you learned?
A: Always play hard, you never know who is watching.
Q: What positive in your game grew? What negative in your game did you notice and try to fix?
A: My basketball IQ and court vision I feel are the two strongest attributes in my game. I need to improve my conditioning and strength. When I improve on that my game will be at a whole new level.
Q: Would you recommend the expo to your peers? How come?
A: I would most definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to play at the next level. The whole Prep Hoops team truly cares about the players.
Q: What is your role looking like this season?
A: My role in this season is yet to be determined but I want to step up and be more of a leader. I will need to score the ball more than I have in previous years, so that will be a new asset to my game that everyone will see.
Merrick has really good court vision. His passing was among some of the best out there on Saturday. He hit jumpers and focused in on scoring points during key possessions, but his ability to lead an offense is undeniable. Merrick will be a sought-after player. He’s a natural playmaker whenever he has the ball in his hands.
