At 6’4 Tre lockett Tre lockett 6'4" | SG Carrollwood Day | 2023 State FL has the size and game to switch between the guard spots. He’s a good athlete that rose above the rim in transition and the halfcourt resulting in a poster. He can hit the outside shot and break down defenders to get to the rim.
6’4 senior Troy Hodge Troy Hodge 6'4" Champagnat Catholic | 2022 FL is an all-around wing with hood tools. Hodge made shots from all over the court and punched one home on a late rotating defender. He made a few defensive plays, none better than his closeout block.
Isaac Celiscar Isaac Celiscar 6'6" | SG Winter Haven | 2024 State #263 Nation FL adds to the reasons I’ll be at Winter Haven this coming season. The 6’6 wing has a high motor, good court sense, and is a premier open court athlete in his class. He’s a great slasher in the half court and one of the best rebounders despite his position at the event.
Camp environments are made for athletic wings like John Gamble John Gamble 6'4" | SG Charlotte | 2023 FL . The 6’6 junior attacked closeouts, usually getting to the rim for a dunk after one dribble and two long strides. He’s a contact magnet that either finishes through bodies or earns a trip to the free throw line. I left game 1 learning that his passing can be a dangerous asset with the right pieces around him.
6’4 Jamie Phillips Jamie Phillips 6'5" | CG Winter Haven | 2024 State FL brings college three point range and rebounding to the table. As a bigger guard, he gets good positioning around the rim thanks to the added strength putting him in the position for putbacks. When the defense was playing Phillips tight on the perimeter, he could shed his man with a shoulder bump.
Braxton Horsman Braxton Horsman 6'6" | SF Palm Harbor | 2022 State FL caught my eye in game 1 earns and did t lose it until the end of game 3. He’s a long 6-5 wing that can get up and down in transition with big finishes at the rim. The senior knocks down perimeter shots at a promising rate.
