<p><em>On Saturday afternoon, I made a trip to the Triad area to check out the Blue Chip Triad High School Fall League. Here's a look at some of the standouts in Part 1 of 3.</em></p> <h5>2021 Jamarii Thomas, Point Guard, Piedmont Classical</h5> <p><strong>Jamarii Thomas</strong> was back in action in the Triad Fall League and wasn't donning the knee brace he wore for much of the summer. He's moving better than ever and made things happen every time he touched the ball for his squad. He flew to the rim and made nifty passes in his team's victory on Saturday. He continues to impress the more I see him play.</p> <h5>2020 Alex Holt, Center, Lexington Senior</h5> <p><strong>Alex Holt</strong> is a big man prospect that showed his prowess in the paint on Saturday afternoon. He runs the floor hard and has nice hands in the post. He showed off a plethora of post moves on offense and on defense, he showed off his ability to protect the rim and control the boards. </p> <h5>2020 Trey Dezern, Shooting Guard, Starmount</h5> <p><strong>Trey Dezern</strong> was a sharpshooter for BCBA Select, showing off his stroke from behind the arc.

He knocked down 3-pointers and got to the rim when necessary. His biggest asset was fighting down low for rebounds, which made him really stand out. He's got nice size at 6-foot-2 that allows him to play either guard spot and uses it well in the paint.</p> <h5>2020 Jalen King-Joiner, Wing, Piedmont Classical</h5> <p><strong>Jalen King-Joiner</strong> is a high-flying wing that used his athleticism to get to the rim and snag rebounds for BCBA Select. He's an active prospect that flies around the floor on both ends and makes plays. He's an intriguing player at 6-foot-6 with his ability to play around the rim.</p> <h5>2022 Caden Fitzgibbons, Guard, Mount Airy</h5> <p><strong>Caden Fitzgibbons</strong> kept his team in the game with his ability to finish plays and fearless defense.

He showed off his ability to get to the rim and finish above the rim as well as getting to the foul line in Week 3.</p> <h5>2021 Tyriek Leach, Point Guard, R.J. Reynolds</h5> <p><strong>Tyriek Leach</strong> is a pure point guard with tight handles and shifty moves that allowed him to break down the defense and make plays for others.
