CBG Fall Series Finale 2022 Standouts (Part 1)

The CBG Fall Series finished up as part of the Feast Jam Jamboree at the Virginia Beach Sports Center. The event was a bracket style 8 team tournament featuring teams that competed in previous Fall Series sessions, and was a very high level event. Hayfield was crowned the champion after defeating Fairfax Christian in a thrilling championship game. Here’s a look at part one of the many 2022 standouts from the event. If you’re interested in watching the Finale in full, you can see the games on the <a href="https://cbglivenetwork.com/">CBG Live Network</a>. Kenny Page | 5’9” PG | Kecoughtan Page struggled a little bit early for Kecoughtan but he stepped it up throughout the event and showed why he’s been one of the top scorers in the CBG Fall Series playing in all four events. With the absence of starting point guard DJ Campbell, he stepped up big time as their primary ball handler handling pressure well, getting in the lane at will and using his slippery and shifty ability to make plays for himself and others. He’s a guy who can score it in bunches and get to the rim at will, and he made big plays on both sides of the ball. [player_tooltip player_id="1107838" first="Chris" last="Brown"] | 6’4” WG | Peninsula Catholic <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/10/Brown-Chris-CBG.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1306402" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/10/Brown-Chris-CBG-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> Brown played in all four CBG Fall Series sessions and continued to get better and show why he’s one of the most sought after 2022s in the 757. He was very good in the Finale helping PC to a 2-1 weekend after losing their first one to Miller School, and the athletic guard brings it on both ends of the floor with his playmaking ability. He is a big time defender both on the ball and in help side, he was great as both a playmaker and a shot maker and he is becoming more and more of a leader for this group. [player_tooltip player_id="1107849" first="Ashton" last="Pratt"] | 6’2” CG | Hayfield <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/11/Pratt-Ashton.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1320834" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/11/Pratt-Ashton-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> Hayfield won the CBG Finale defeating King’s Fork in a thriller in the first round where Pratt hit the game winner, Menchvillein the second round and Fairfax Christian in a very good championship game. Pratt was huge for them as their top shot maker, as he was the main reason they won the first game going for 23 points on 6 made three-pointers. He’s their x-factor as he can play on and off the basketball, he can score it from multiple levels and he has very good feel and instincts on both ends of the floor. [player_tooltip player_id="1107845" first="Dallas" last="Kendall"] | 6’8” PF | Menchville Kendall continues to come into his own as he’s improved immensely over the past few years and with an extra year he’ll have division one schools come knocking for sure. The 6’8” forward is long and a good athlete, he can guard multiple positions and is a good rim protector and he continues to become more and more productive every time I see him play. While he needs to fill out Kendall is very intriguing at his size with his versatility and ball skills as he can play both on the perimeter and in the post. [player_tooltip player_id="1217448" first="Anthony" last="Davis"] | 6’5” WF | Miller School <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/10/Davis-Ant-CBG.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1301648" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/10/Davis-Ant-CBG-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> The Fairfield commit was fantastic for Miller School on both ends of the floor, as the 6’5” wing is just a “dude” who finds ways to be productive with his athleticism and high motor. He’s extremely strong which allows him to be very good in their press and play through contact when he gets downhill, he hits the glass very hard on both ends of the floor and he finishes everything around the rim. He continues to improve as a shot maker and a ball handler, and he should be one of the top players in the VISAA this year. Ethan DeLaurier | 6’8” PF | Miller School The Navy commit has shown great improvement over the past few years, and he continues to be productive on both ends of the floor for the Mavs. The 6’8” big plays with a good motor and has good toughness to him, he can block shots well and switch onto wings and guards and guard in space and he’s able to stretch the floor and has improved as a shooter from deep. He’s a mismatch player who can plug and play in different roles for them. [player_tooltip player_id="964450" first="Jacob" last="Rice"] | 6’7” PF | Miller School <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/03/Rice-Jacob.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1159983" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/03/Rice-Jacob-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a> Another versatile and productive big man for Miller, Rice allows the Mavs to be a very big team as they can easily throw a lineup out there with three or four guys who measure 6’6” or more, making them very tough to match up with. Rice is a high motor forward who can do a little bit of everything as he can play in transition, he can step out and score it out to 20 feet and he play through contact and finish at the rim consistently too. He’s one of the top available seniors in the state and should be an x-factor for their talented team this year.
