Lets take a look at some of the Top 2022 Performers we were able to see in attendance this weekend. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1036935" first="Richard" last="Black III"] - Westminster Catawba (Rock Hill) - Team Synergy 17U (pictured on front) </strong></p> <p>Black was great on opening night dropping 36 points. Black really can score the ball and does most of his damage attacking the basket. Black excels in the transition game. Black a slasher deluxe can fill up the score sheet at times. Black seems to be best from 12-14 feet in on the floor. Black creates a lot of offense on the floor with his play and ability to create. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/04/F3FAC1EA-6C21-4DDF-BFDA-062BF6CE703C.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1168598" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/04/F3FAC1EA-6C21-4DDF-BFDA-062BF6CE703C-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="837333" first="Samaad" last="Wright"] - Blythewood HS - PSB Elite 17U Lowery </strong></p> <p>Wright a combo guard has the ability to score at the basket by dropping a floater in the lane. Wright plays well away from the ball and works to get it in his hands and find open the man. Wright can either score the ball or make a extra pass to a teammate for a good look. Wright plays the game extremely unselfish. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/04/B291C62E-461F-43C2-AAA1-1BACB5FC7E05.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1168602" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/04/B291C62E-461F-43C2-AAA1-1BACB5FC7E05-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1041323" first="Jalen" last="Hicklin"] - South Pointe HS (Rock Hill) - Next Level </strong></p> <p>Hicklin has rugged blue collar look to him in the paint. Hicklin fresh off a Class 4A State Championship this past February just constantly brings production around the cup. Hicklin a defensive lineman in the fall for the Stallions doesn’t mind playing the game on contact. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/04/F37768E9-5DCB-4934-949A-98DDEFB8C511.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1168601" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/04/F37768E9-5DCB-4934-949A-98DDEFB8C511-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1158150" first="Rohan" last="Petiote"] - Westminster Catawba (Rock Hill) - Team Synergy 17U</strong></p> <p>Petiote has really had a good spring so far with Prep Hoops in attendance to watch him. Petiote a very athletic young man really looks to attack the baseline at times. Petiote swarms the ball on the defensive end and really plays his tail off at all times. Petiote plays with a high motor and can explode to the cup with 2-3 dribbles. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/04/24B1B51C-5907-45F3-A42C-05B602915232.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1168599" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/04/24B1B51C-5907-45F3-A42C-05B602915232-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1168579" first="Waymond" last="Jenerette"] - South Pointe HS (Rock Hill) - Next Level </strong></p> <p>Jenerette a wide receiver on the Stallions football team in the fall came to play today. Jenerette really excels in the open floor scoring baskets in transition. Jenerette a pesky on the ball defender did as much as he could with his team that had just 6 players today. Jenerette plays very well in the passing lanes with his length. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
