Malachi Stevens Malachi Stevens 6'4" | SF Oceanside Collegiate | 2023 State SC – TMP 17U – Oceanside Collegiate (Mount Pleasant)
Malachi really showed some great glimpses of what we at Prep Hoops as seen in the past. Stevens is a kid who could have a breakout summer with his play from the wing. He really excels in the transition game while finishing on a handful of dunks today in transition. Malachi can stalk the baseline or connect on the perimeter jumper when given the chance. Malachi’s length and versatility on the floor at times helps him become a mismatch for defenders. Could Malachi have a breakout season for the Landsharks wait and see this summer and fall.
Dominick Jones Dominick Jones 6'3" | PG West Florence | 2023 State SC – Carolina Bad Boyz – Wilson HS (Florence)
Jones plays the game so hard and never looks to take a play-off while on the floor. Nicknamed “Spanky” he really plays the passing lanes well and will always come up with deflections on the defensive end. Dominick does his best work while attacking and working for that loose ball or rebound on the glass. EFFORT GUY at all times.
Merel Burgess Merel Burgess 6'5" | PF Wilson | 2023 State SC – Carolina Bad Boyz – Wilson HS
Burgess at times really looks to be figuring things out with his play. Merel is a deceptive athlete on the floor for the Bad Boyz. He can play inside-out out as post player or knockdown a short elbow jumper at times. Burgess is an above average passer from the high post at times.
Thomas Robertson Thomas Robertson 6'6" | PF Pinewood Prep | 2023 State SC – Palmetto Elite – Pinewood Prep (Summerville)
Thomas is an old school post player who really looks to manufacture points around the basket just on effort and junk baskets at times. Robertson works for his points in the paint and brings a blue-collar mentality to the floor.
Justin Coleman Justin Coleman 6'5" | PF Oceanside Collegiate | 2023 State SC – Lowcountry Storm 2023 – Oceanside Collegiate (Mount Pleasant)
Coleman was great all weekend long for his team. Justin delivered around the cup and at times just bullied his way through the paint. He has really started to figure things out this past season and he and Stevens could be a nice 1-2 punch for the Landsharks this season.
