Smith a left-handed freight train in the lane spent time knocking bodies around down in the paint. Smith plays the game extremely aggressive and really looked to bullied defenders around the basket. Smith was relentless on the boards and didn’t mind spending time on the floor grabbing loose balls. Smith scored 22 points in a win on Sunday in win over NOVA UNFD. Smith plays bigger than his size down in the paint.  </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1016450" first="Jasaan" last="Faulkner"] (2024) - St James HS (Murrells Inlet) (pictured on front) </strong></p> <p>Faulkner played a bit more aggressive on the offensive end of the floor this weekend. Faulkner finished with 10 points in the last game of the day on Sunday in a win over NOVA UNFD. Faulkner really looks like a old school guard at times with the use of the bounce pass. Faulkner made several heady plays today with his timely passing and defensive stops. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/05/2FC15FF1-5976-4C89-BC77-C2C388AB5B0E.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1190201" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/05/2FC15FF1-5976-4C89-BC77-C2C388AB5B0E-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1184789" first="Moe" last="Davis"] (2024) - Carolina Forest HS</strong> <strong>(Myrtle Beach)</strong></p> <p>Davis really does a good job finishing around the basket with his left-hand. Davis is very active on both ends of the floor. Davis can play inside-out from the basket and really manufactures a lot of his points on put-backs and effort. Davis scored 15 points in the last game of the day vs NOVA UNFD. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/05/333D2DAC-144A-49F0-B4CE-FCF7B54A020D.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1190202" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/05/333D2DAC-144A-49F0-B4CE-FCF7B54A020D-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>Landon Cloninger (2025) - North Myrtle Beach M.S. </strong></p> <p>Cloninger a Quarterback could be the future for the Chiefs football program. Cloninger just a 8th grader currently attends North Myrtle Beach M.S. Cloninger has a bit of hitch on his set shot but looks really good coming off the bounce or screens. </p> <p>Lookout for this team down the road from right here on the Grand Strand. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
