CBG Unsigned Senior Standouts (Part 2)

<p>The CBG Unsigned Senior Showcase featured some of the top unsigned seniors in the state of VA, and they played in front of a number of college and post grad coaches.</p> <p>Here’s a look at part two of the standouts from the event.</p> <p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Alex Orr | 6’3” WG | James River</span></strong></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Orr-Alex-CBG.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1419562" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Orr-Alex-CBG-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Orr was one of the breakout players at the event, as the 6’3” wing from James River showed he was one of the top shooters in the gym and made shots consistently. He has pretty good size on the wing and works well off the ball to get open, he has a quick release and deep range off the catch and he can be a secondary ball handler that can create shots and knock it down off the bounce too.</span></p> <p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">[player_tooltip player_id="1387029" first="Leroy" last="Hamilton"] | 6’2” CG | Oscar Smith</span></strong></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Hamilton-Leroy-CBG.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1419563" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Hamilton-Leroy-CBG-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Hamilton was one of the top scorers in the 757 this past year, and he showed why at the event as he showed the ability to play both on the ball and off the ball and score it from different levels. He’s shifty off the bounce and knows how to create space and make shots from all over the floor, he can shoot it from deep and finish in the lane and understands angles and he can get hot quickly and score it in bunches.</span></p> <p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">[player_tooltip player_id="1107833" first="Georges" last="Archer"] | 6’4” WF | Princess Anne</span></strong></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Archer-Georges.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1419567" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Archer-Georges-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Archer had a lot of coaches asking about him throughout the event, as he showed a lot of tools that translate to the next level with his size and athleticism. He’s a long and bouncy wing who got downhill and finished at and above the rim, he showed the ability to catch and knock down shots as well as hit the pull-up and he played with a good motor on both ends and rebounded well too.</span></p> <p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Devin Walker | 6’1” PG | Blue Ridge</span></strong></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Walker-Devin-CBG.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1419568" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Walker-Devin-CBG-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Walker was a big part of Blue Ridge’s run to yet another state championship, and the way he improved over the past few years bolds well for him moving forward. He’s the type of guard who is always under control and can play in different roles, he shot it very well from deep off the catch and got to spots off the bounce and he made good decisions and didn’t force things even in a camp setting.</span></p> <p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Zach Kennedy | 5’6” PG | Banner Christian</span></strong></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Kennedy-Zach-CBG.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1419569" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Kennedy-Zach-CBG-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Kennedy may have been the smallest guy in attendance, but he showed he can hoop with whoever as he has a good skill set and didn’t back down from anyone. He stays out of traps with the ball in his hands and has good shift off the bounce to get in the lane and make plays for others, he showed the ability to make shots from multiple levels and score efficiently and he was able to get under ball handlers and stay in front to make them uncomfortable.</span></p> <p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">Corey Long | 6’6” PF | Eastern View</span></strong></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Long-Corey-CBg.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1419571" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Long-Corey-CBg-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Long had a breakout senior season for an Eastern View team that surprised a lot of people, and he is an intriguing forward with his mix of strength and skill set that makes him a walking mismatch. He has a very strong frame but is mobile and can run the floor and use his strength to clear out space and finish in the paint, he can step out to the elbows and knock down shots and pass to cutters and shooters and he plays with a great motor and rebounds well too.</span></p>
