is my favorite player to watch in the class of 2021 for the 757 area. No other player plays harder than he does! This shooting guard is well built and very strong, using his power to hassle guards on defense. Johnson also crashes the boards hard for a guard and he has excellent shot selection. For colleges that need an energy guy,

is the man.
Cameron Edmonds 6’1 PG 2021

is one of the most consistent point guards in the state, with averages around 17 and 5. Edmonds excels at running the team, using his patience and vision to get the offense going. Edmonds is also a consistent defender, making him reliable on both sides of the ball. As he progresses, expect his scoring to rise as not many guards can consistently stop Edmonds.

has been working hard this summer and the results are obvious. This high IQ guard has great size for the lead guard, and his quickness is undersold. White is a proven scoring point guard as he had several 20+ performances last season. With his exceptional academics, White should have many options for the next level.

is one of the most athletic guards in his class for the state and this fact should be fully recognized next season. At 6’4, Brown combines excellent size with incredible bounce, allowing him to float around the rim. What is most exciting is his potential. Brown has all the raw abilities to be a dominant combo guard. Expect recruiting to pick up soon!
Greg Melvin

Jr 6’7 F 2022
I have Melvin at the top of the board for 757 in terms of potential latent prospects. Melvin has the chance to develop into an incredible multi positional player. Already 6’7, Melvin is hard to contain in the paint. On top of this, Melvin is a great rebounder and defender. As Melvin develops his perimeter game, expect his stock to rise massively.
