3-Pack: 2021 Forwards To Watch

<p>The change in the recruiting cycle is going to be a big change for everyone. Right as we thought we were going to be getting out on the road, we get shut down. So, in order to spend as much effort as we can in getting players seen, we are going to do what we call, 3-Packs. </p> <p>With these, we want to highlight 3 players who are similar in class and position. Get some time to dive into some quick thoughts, stat breakdowns, and film. Today, we are looking at 2021 Forwards in [player_tooltip player_id="647206" first="Jaylen" last="Carson"], [player_tooltip player_id="874198" first="Quinton" last="Boyd"], and [player_tooltip player_id="874124" first="Terrence" last="Ringo"]. </p> <p style="text-align: center;"><iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/10384439/5a84b7d7478d920cd0a0517f" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="647206" first="Jaylen" last="Carson"] – 6’6 PF 2021 – Crispus Attucks (IN)</strong><br /> <strong>Stats</strong>: 8.9 ppg, 8.4 rpg, 1.1 apg  <br /> <strong>Thoughts</strong>: Carson is a tough, physical post player who can really impact the game on both ends of the floor. He is a defensive minded player but he has a good amount of offense in his skill-set as well. On offense, he is at his best shooting off the catch but can get buckets in the post area. Once he gets in a rhythm he is tough to stop because he’s 6'6 and really long. He has done a good job with getting better and better over the years. Carson should have a breakout senior season.                                               </p> <p style="text-align: center;"><iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/12130452/5e17781ba678400a5cd74813" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="874198" first="Quinton" last="Boyd"] – 6’6 PF 2021 – North Central (IN)</strong><br /> <strong>Stats</strong>: N/A<br /> <strong>Thoughts</strong>: Boyd is a big post player that plays pretty aggressively. He’s powerful and strong as well. For a big, he runs the floor well and gets most of his points in the post area. Has shown at times that he can shoot the ball around the 3 but that is not his first option. Does have the ability to play faced up in the mid-range and can really drive well at times. Needs to add some speed to his game if he wants to be able to compete with the other bigs at the next level. Boyd is the type of player with the right coaching that can be molded into a good player.                                   </p> <p style="text-align: center;"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/VeUMVQ3JFFU" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="874124" first="Terrence" last="Ringo"] – 6’5 SF/PF 2021 – Evansville Harrison (IN)</strong><br /> <strong>Stats</strong>: 6.2 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 1.2 bpg     <br /> <strong>Thoughts</strong>: Ringo is a tall forward that has a good amount of athleticism to his game. Solid at both driving and shooting but looks as though he would much rather stick in the post area to score. Runs up and down the floor pretty well and is good about locating the ball and getting to the right spot. Shooting has looked to have gotten much better as well. Rebounds at a pretty high level and can go track them down outside of the paint. Overall, Ringo is a tough forward that can provide solid production on the floor.   </p>
