<h5>The second half of the high school season is underway. Here’s a look at some unsigned senior point guard prospects to get eyes on in the 1A East &amp; 2A East region at the NCHSAA level. </h5> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1368524" first="JD" last="Gibbs"] | 5’11 | Pamlico County </h5> <p>Gibbs is a steady point guard in the Pamlico County High rotation that remains unsigned. He’s averaging 12.2 ppg, 5.4 rpg, 3.4 apg and 2.9 spg through 13 games played for the Hurricanes. He’s been an impressive playmaker and scorer while showing off his handling and quickness in the backcourt as the pace-setter. He’s a prospect that DII and DIII colleges should take a look at.</p> <h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1368523" first="Ky’saun" last="Russell"] | 6’0 | Granville Central</h5> <p>Russell has emerged as Granville Central’s best playmaker in 2021-22. He’s posting 15.0 ppg, 5.5 apg, 3.3 spg and 2.8 rpg through the Panthers’ first 15 games of the season. They’re off to a 12-3 start and 3-1 in conference action with him leading the way and controlling the pace at the floor general spot. He’s a prospect DIII and JUCOs should get eyes on in the 2022 class in the state.</p> <h5>[player_tooltip player_id="577832" first="Zymir" last="Best"] | 6’0 | Pamlico County</h5> <p>Best is another name in the Pamlico County backcourt that can change the pace at the point guard role. He’s producing 9.6 ppg, 2.5 rpg, 1.8 apg and 1.5 spg and has produced 12.5 ppg in their last two victories while setting the tone in the backcourt. He’s another point guard that can get downhill and make things happen for the Hurricanes. DIII and JUCO schools should get eyes on him.</p> <h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1322085" first="Markel" last="Lloyd"] | 6’2 | Henderson Collegiate</h5> <p>Lloyd is a big point guard prospect at 6-foot-2 that’s developed into quite the presence for Henderson Collegiate. He’s averaging 10.2 ppg, 2.9 rpg and 2.8 apg as they’re off to a 2-0 start in conference action. He’s done well to show an ability to get the team where they need to be and make things happen while running the show at the floor general role. He’s a prospect that’s shown he can hang on the DIII and JUCO levels with his ability to handle the ball and score the ball in a variety of ways.</p> <h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1368517" first="EJ" last="Gatling"] | 5’8 | Northeastern</h5> <p>Gatling is a late-emerging point guard prospect at Northeastern High that’s climbing up the radar. He’s a speedy floor general that’s putting up 15.4 ppg, 3.6 spg, 3.3 apg and 2.4 rpg as one of the leading names for the Eagles. He’s a big reason they’re off to a 9-1 start and 4-0 in conference play as the bulk of their conference slate kicks off. He’s a name to keep an eye on in the 2A East region.</p>
