Continue ReadingAs the playoffs approach, some of the 2020 combo guards will be using the extra gameplay to prove their worth to the many colleges that will be watching. Down below are some of the names to keep an eye on in the upcoming games.
Marcus Banks Jr- 6’4/Bethel. Marcus Banks has been competing at a high level his entire high school career. In the summer time the past few seasons Marcus has run with some of the best AAU teams in the area, and in the school season he has played for the likes of Walsingham Academy and Bethel. Recently, the shooting guard secured 1st Team honors for his district, averaging around 19 a game and rebounding at a high rate for a guard, even pulling in 17 boards in one game. This postseason, Banks will have a chance to show off his promising jumper, leadership skills and his solid size for his position as he tries to help his Bethel squad make a run.

Torrey Jordan Jr- 6’3/Oscar Smith. While Torrey Jordan almost always boasts a contagious smile on the court, do not let it fool you: Jordan competes. Gifted with quick feet and a nice wingspan, Jordan has cemented himself as one of the best perimeter defenders in the area. Whether on the ball or playing the passing lanes, Jordan has shown an excellent ability to read the play and make the right decision on defense. With the size to play either point guard or shooting guard, Jordan is an excellent shooter and a sneaky play maker. Jordan should use this post season to show colleges all of the tools he brings to the game.
Quishaun Brevard- 6’1/Woodside. Brevard has had quite the season leading the way for his Woodside team. Averaging around 18 points and 2 and a half steals, Brevard has been a consistent two way player for his team. Brevard is a hard guard to keep out of the paint, finishing strong at the basket and is even liable to dunk on you. What colleges should most pay attention to is his basketball IQ and his wingspan. With his length, Brevard can play against bigger match ups without issue. During the post season, Brevard will have another chance to show off his two way ability for any of the schools interested in a versatile guard.
Ray Bellamy- 6’4/Lakeland. Ray Bellamy has some of the best physical gifts for any combo guard in the area. Blessed with great height and length, Bellamy is a nightmare for almost any guard to match up with. Whether off the drive with his quickness and handle, or even catching lobs, Bellamy can either finish above the rim or with finesse. On top of these traits, Bellamy is also an excellent rebounder, using his length and quick bounce to haul in 10+ boards on multiple occasions despite being a guard. Schools will drool over his athleticism and length once they finally lay their eyes on him in the playoffs.
