Elijah Duval Elijah Duval 6'2" | SG Martin County | 2024 #118 Nation FL (PH Ranking #18) 6’2 Martin County High School- Elijah has yet to play a single minute of High School basketball in Florida and yet the buzz is at an all time high to see this young man in action. He has high major potential and I really believe will be in the Top 20 nationwide for this 2024 class in a short amount of time. He is nearly unstoppable going to the rim and has some of the best ball handling skills I have seen especially at his age. Already holding a Division 1 offer this is just the beginning for his recruitment and I believe colleges will be lining up very quickly to have this young man a part of their program at the next level
Stone Bureau Stone Bureau 6'0" | PG Calvary Christian Academy, Ft. Lauderdale | 2024 State FL (PH Ranking#16) 6’0 Suncoast – Stone is another one I could see going Division 1 he has an elite skill set and can score at will. He is great at creating his own shot and is very tough to defend. He has a very quick first step and can also hurt you from behind the arc. Stone plays with a ton of confidence and is always attacking. Stone plays with a ton of energy and goes hard on both ends of the floor. Suncoast is loaded and I look forward to seeing what they can do this upcoming season
Ian Smikle Ian Smikle 6'9" | C Suncoast | 2024 State FL (PH Ranking #54) 6’7 Suncoast – I have seen Ian play since 5th grade and he continues to evolve his overall game. Ian has above average footwork and is tough to defend around the basket. Ian’s perimeter shooting has been consistent and he is always in the gym working on his game. Ian creates fits from a matchup perspective for the opposing team and is poised for a strong sophomore season at Suncoast. I expect Ian to continue to rise in the 2024 rankings
Reginald Reinhardt Reginald Reinhardt 6'0" | PG Wellington | 2024 State FL (PH Ranking #72) 6’0 Wellington High School – Reggie is an elite scorer who shoots with confidence. Recently transferred from Dwyer Reggie will quickly add value to an already loaded Wellington squad. Reggie has made the mid-range jumper “cool again” and is a consistent outside shooter. Reggie creates matchup problems for the opposing team and will be one to keep an eye on in the 2024 class. I look forward to seeing what he will do this upcoming season
Berreky Fleurissaint (PH Ranking #100) 6’1 Treasure Coast High School – Rounding out our Top 5 “Becky” as he goes by is a 4 year varsity starter for Treasure Coast High School with huge upside. Becky is a true slasher and gets to the basket with ease. He is lightning quick and is a high flyer who can jump out of the gym. Becky is very athletic and already one of the top overall players in his area. Treasure Coast will be a team to watch with several 2023 and 2024 Prep Hoops ranked players ready to make a splash this upcoming season.
