KC Shaw KC Shaw 6'4" | CG Mooresville | 2022 State NC (6’4″ Combo Guard) Moresville High (2022)
Shaw may be one of the most explosive senior guards in the State. The crafty finisher is also a tenacious rebounder, especially on the offensive glass. Shaw possesses a motor that can prompt any fast break into a momentum-swinging play. Shaw lead his team in two dominant wins this past week. Scoring 28 points with a near triple-double in a dominant win over Hickory Ridge. He followed that performance up with a team-high 15 points and 10 rebounds against West Cabarrus.
Sir Mohammed Sir Mohammed 6'6" | SG Myers Park | 2024 State #83 Nation NC (6’5″ Shooting Guard) Myers Park High (2024)
Mohammed is continuing to build on his impressive sophomore campaign with his elite impact on both sides of the floor. Averaging 14 points a game and second in assists with four. He is also being in the top seven of his conference in steals and blocks. Mohammed’s size and his fluent playmaking make him one of the most unique prospects within the state of North Carolina.
Mychael Mitchell Mychael Mitchell 6'2" | PG Gray Collegiate Academy | 2023 State SC (6’1″ Point Guard) Northside Christian (2023)
Mitchell is a true point guard that has taken a very impressive defensive jump from his sophomore to junior year. Averaging three steals a game and scoring in double figures(11.4) so far this season. Distributing the ball averaging nearly five assists on the season, Mitchell is getting his teammates involved but he is also averaging three turnovers a game. Mitchell taking better care of the ball and improving on his three-point shooting will not only maximize his potential on the floor but it could be the turning point in the season for the Knights to reach their full team potential.
JJ Moore JJ Moore 5'9" | PG Quality Education | 2024 NC (5’11″ Point Guard) Lincoln Charter (2023)
JJ was selected as the player of the game after scoring his season-high 41 points in a win over Langtree Charter Friday. Moore is a versatile guard that loves to defend averaging over four steals a game on the season. He had six steals in the win on Friday and seven assists. JJ continues to light it up from beyond the arc, shooting an impressive 43% on the season so far. A tough guard in space and has a knack for getting to the rim and finishing over defenders especially downhill.
