Rankings Update: 2021 Top Newcomers PART 1

<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1041139" first="Joryam" last="Saizonou"]- 6’3” CG Beckley Prep</p> <p>Saizonou transferred to Beckley Prep (Beckley, WV) from McCallie School (Chattanooga, TN). Joryam is 6’3” and can play either guard position. I personally think he’s at his best when going downhill and is looking to score the ball. As such, I think he’s naturally more of a 2-guard, but definitely has the skill and IQ to play the point as well. He scores well at the rim and shoots the 3 ball well off the catch. He finishes well at the rim with either hand and is able to play above the rim. I’d like to see him improve his mid range game but in today’s basketball it’s a lost art. Joryam is a good ball handler and is a good passer who is unselfish and is always looking to make the right play. Defensively, he applies good pressure and has quick hands. Mid major D1s should inquire.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1051401" first="Richard" last="Law Jr."]- 6’0” CG Winston Salem Christian (NC)</p> <p>Law is one of my absolute favorite players to watch. Offensively, he scores at all 3 levels and specializes in mid range scoring. He shoots the ball extremely well, does a great job at scoring off 1-2 dribbles, has range out to beyond 30 feet, moves well without the ball, finishes well at the rim and his strong build allows him to absorb and finish through contact. He is a good ball handler and a solid passer. He is able to play either guard spot but is also best used playing off the ball. Defensively, he does a great job at applying pressure and is always in the right spot. High level D2s need to get on him before it’s too late.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1051402" first="Luke" last="De Gannes"]- 6’5” SF/SG Teays Valley</p> <p>Luke is someone every team could use. He is a strong 6’5” wing player at Teays Valley. Offensively, Luke is a good ball handler, a solid passer, shoots the ball well out beyond the 3 point line, finishes well at the rim and can play above the rim. Defensively is where I absolutely love his game though. Luke is a big strong wing that can guard 1-4. He applies great pressure, knows where to be and when and is a good positional rebounder. High level D2s and NAIAs should inquire.</p>
