Riley Leonard (Hawks Elite)- Leonard continues to impress with his scoring ability and smooth shooting. At 6’4-6’5, this kid has really good size on perimeter. LM and MM level schools have been all over Leonard.
De’Marquiese Miles (Team Carroll)- Miles is a dog. This kid competes at a high level on both ends of the court. Miles fits the definition of a floor general, and several LM-MM schools have taken notice. Look for the 6’1-6’2 guard to climb the rankings.
Hayden Lamey (Birmingham Thunder)- Lamey continues to impress with his consistency and scoring ability. He’s improved his playmaking which gives him reps as a primary handler. This kid is a high academic student and would be a very good pick up at the D2-LM level.
Chance Beard (Birmingham Thunder)- Beard is a work horse. This kid just plays so hard every time he hits the floor. The 6’5 forward impacts the game at both ends and on the glass. Beard is another high academic student who would fit in nicely at the D2-LM level.
Sedrick Pettway (Alabama Celtics)- Pettway continues to show off his scoring ability from all 3 levels, but this weekend was one of his better defensive performances. This kid works hard and his overall improvements are making him a must see prospect.
Brody Peebles (Pro One Select)- Peebles is making waves as one of the state’s best scorers no matter the class. The 6’2 2021 guard has the ability to play both on and off the ball. MM level programs have been all over him.
Jamarion Ryans (Alabama Celtics)- Ryans is a 2022 guard that has a lot of Kam Woods in him. This kid is electric with the ball in his hands and can score all over the court. Ryans will be a fun one to watch for the next couple seasons.
