Lets take a look at some of the top players from the Hoop State while in attendance. </p> <p><strong>Linwood Grandy (2020) - Wayne Country Day (Goldsboro) - Kinston Ballers </strong></p> <p>Grandy is a big wing that plays on the Grassroots Circuit with Team Trezz.

Everett </p> <p><strong>Quan Hamilton (2020) - Bethel Christian Academy (Kinston) - Kinston Ballers </strong></p> <p>Hamilton really lacks a true position on the floor.
