Drummond is very vocal on the floor with his teammates and always looking to communicate. Bryson dropped some open jumpers on perimeter when he wasn’t distributing the ball around. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/B5A6CAFB-8157-4598-B020-CE1547D49602.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1241821" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/B5A6CAFB-8157-4598-B020-CE1547D49602-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1239536" first="Nehemiah" last="Thompkins"] - Greenville HS - 1 SC Elite 2025 </strong></p> <p>Thompkins was quick off the bench for the 1 SC Elite 2025 squad. Nehemiah came out firing dropping a few three pointers and a knack to score the ball. Thompkins and Drummond both could see some minutes this season on the Red Raiders rosters for Head Coach Mike Anderson. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/0042CDA0-F487-4956-B28A-043CF0A3E7C7-crop-2476x1626-1626873746.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1241826" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/0042CDA0-F487-4956-B28A-043CF0A3E7C7-crop-2476x1626-1626873746-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1241815" first="Joey" last="Tracey"] - Aiken HS - Carolina Lakers </strong></p> <p>Joey was able to penetrate-kick to open teammates all day long. Tracey converted a nice 1-2 dribble pull-up jumper when he wasn’t dropping floaters in the lane. Tracey really looks to swarm the ball on the defensive end of the floor. Joey finished at the cup with his left-hand while showing good body control. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1158155" first="Terrence" last="Smith"] - South Aiken HS - Carolina Lakers (pictured on front)</strong></p> <p>Smith Jr. is a pesky defender for the Lake Show. Terrence plays active in the passing lanes picking up deflections just like on the gridiron as a defensive back. Smith Jr. never looks to leave the floor for Head Coach Marcel Harley. Terrence was able to connect on some short jumpers here today to help the Lakers win. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/F36C7B21-845E-453E-A43C-62B42A3DA8CB.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1241820" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/F36C7B21-845E-453E-A43C-62B42A3DA8CB-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1239541" first="Seth" last="Sims"] - White Knoll HS - PCH Nightrydas SC 15U </strong></p> <p>Sims confirmed to Prep Hoops he will attend White Knoll HS this coming fall. Seth does a good job of working from block to block and really looks to challenge shots on the defensive end of the floor. Sims has a good motor and always keeps his feet moving around the paint. Sims finished very well around the basket today with his soft hands. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
