ENC early week stat sheet standouts!

<p><em>With public schools beginning play this week, we can now officially say that basketball season is back! Let’s take a look at a few of the players and storylines that have already caught our attention this week as teams are beginning to show what they are made of.</em></p> <ul> <li>Kinston HS Star 2021 Wing <strong>Dontrez Styles</strong> didn’t waste any time as he finished with 24 points &amp; 13 Rebounds against West Carteret. Styles is a player that has already picked up some ACC level offers and should only see his stock increase as time goes on if he continues to play well.</li> <li>Trinity Christian is off to a good start and they picked up a nice performance from 2022 Guard <strong>Freddie Dillione</strong> as he scored 22 Points in their win Tuesday night. The upside of Dillione is clear, if he can play with a high motor consistently, the sky is the limit for how good he can possibly be.</li> <li>We told you all to keep an eye on the Richmond County Raiders this year and game one of the season is just a glimpse as they were absolutely dominant throughout. 2021 Forward <strong>Nygie Stroman</strong> led the way for his squad with 18 points, Stroman is a player than can finish inside the paint as well as extend to the perimeter to stretch a defense.</li> <li>Scotland County 2020 PG <strong>Garrett McRae</strong> is a player that we felt would have a big time season this year and he’s off to a good start. Mcrae finished with 22 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assist in a loss to Union Pines on Tuesday, and college coaches will want to make a trip to see Garrett without a doubt. He’s a PG that can score it well, knows how to run a team and is an outstanding student academically.</li> <li>Clayton HS Guard/Forward <strong>BJ Freeman</strong> put on a show in their matchup against Corinth Holders as he finished with 35 points. Freeman can play the SG and SF spots but also does a nice job of battling inside with opposing bigs by using his strength.</li> <li>Lumberton HS 2020 Guard <strong>Jordan McNeill</strong> finished with 21 points in their win over Red Springs, Mcneill is a player that has already picked up D2 offers and should see his stock continue to rise. We love the fact that he can rebound the ball at a very high level from the guard spot to go along with impressive scoring ability.</li> <li>Northwood Temple 2020 Forward <strong>Reggie Raynor</strong> had a big time game on Tuesday night as he went for 31 points. The 6’5 Forward has picked up some really good D2 offers from schools such as: Queens, Mount Olive and Catawba, he’s athletic with the ability to rebound at a high level as well.</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p>
