High Point Christian Senior Guard KJ Garrett will be a nice late pickup for a college program that is looking for a guard to come in and run the show. He got off to a very quick start, scoring the first 7 Points for HPCA and remained aggressive throughout the day.
South Granville Senior Guard Bobby Pettiford Bobby Pettiford 6'1" | PG South Granville | 2021 State #115 Nation NC didn’t have his best day shooting the ball but once he made up his mind to attack the paint, he got going and had a big time showing. His end to end speed, upper body strength and leaping ability are all attributes that are impressive and should allow him to transition smoothly.
Lake Norman Christian Sophomore Trey Green Trey Green 5'10" | PG Link Academy | 2023 #69 Nation MO continues to impress with his overall play and natural feel for the game. He can play off the ball and score at a high level or you can move him to the PG spot and let him facilitate to his teammates. In the 3rd quarter he took over the game scoring wise and showed why colleges are really beginning to take notice and extend offers.
Lake Norman Christian Sophomore Guard Mikey Williams is a name that everyone knows due to his scoring and athletic ability. What impressed us on Saturday was how well he made decisions after getting by his own defender, on numerous occasions he got into the paint and dropped off nice passes to teammates, also does a nice job of letting the game come to him.
High Point Christian Sophomore Guard Isaiah Sanders is a young talent that we will be keeping an eye on over the next few years. He showed some flashes of what he could potentially be throughout the day, knocking down shots and slashing to the basket.
