<h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1273237" first="Zymere" last="Hudson"] | 6’1 Wing/Guard | Team Davie/Yadkin/Wilkes</h5>
<p>Hudson was impressive when his counterpart, [player_tooltip player_id="577860" first="Zaharee" last="Maddox"] went down with injury, stepping up to show he was more than just a wing prospect. He showed off his ability to get downhill and finish through contact and knock down shots on the perimeter and in the mid-range area.

<p>Graves is a speedy guard that set the tone getting to the rim for Team Roc/Alam/Cas/Rand as a new face. He’s got some nice speed and underrated bounce that allows him to squeak past defenders for buckets through traffic. He’ll be a name to know over at Winston-Salem Prep this season after transferring over from the state of Virginia.</p>
<h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1273265" first="Isiah" last="Lash"] | 6’5 Forward | Team Stokes/Surry | 2024</h5>

As he shows he can protect the rim and be a defensive anchor, look for his stock to grow in the 2024 class.</p>

Look for his name to grow in the state going forward.</p>
<h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1273255" first="Jamias" last="Ferere"] | 6’5 Guard/Wing | Team Guilford | 2024</h5>
