Jalyn Connor | Team Charlotte
Connor’s shotmaking from all levels paid dividends for his undefeated team. He creates his looks with speed, a slick handle, and acumen for getting to his spots. He can shoot the three with volume and accuracy. Connor plays well in the midrange, working his pull up jumper and passing. At 5’11, he shows a strong ability to finish deep in the paint.
Cooper Whitby Cooper Whitby 6'1" | SG Westminster Christian | 2025 FL | Thunder Supreme
Whitby is an unflappable combo guard that just knows how to put points on the board. He can create for himself when he has the ball, but it’s the off ball shooting that makes him dangerous. Whitby knocked down threes in each game, including a 31 point performance with 8 makes from beyond the arc. He made a healthy dose of midrange shots to balance out a 20+ point per game weekend.
Brown was another fast-starter in his respective backcourt for CAAT Wildcats 2025 as they went 4-0 on the weekend at the Carolina Cup. He did well to force defensive pressure and easily turned steals into buckets for himself and others with his ability to handle the ball and get downhill. He’s one of a few names that impressed from this group.
Jayden Agbanoma | No Excuses Elite
One thing this age group had was shotmaking guards and Agbanoma was one of them. He left the weekend averaging double digit points, hitting shots from deep and the midrange in all four games. Agbanoma can score without having his number called by converting turnovers to transition points and crashing the offensive glass for second chance plays. He did all the little things that might not pop in the game’s flow but lead to winning, including getting to the free throw line.
James Carswell James Carswell 6'4" | SG Cox Mill | 2025 State NC | Underrated Athletes
The 6’5 forward dominated with agility and low post play. When he’s playing with his back to the basket, he has a go to right hook that he consistently knocked down. He knows how to use his size to take advantage of the mismatches he has at this level. Carswell showcases massive upside with the mobility he uses around the paint. He even took his man off the bounce with a between the legs crossover that turned to a floater. It’s footwork, scoring IQ for his age, and upside that land this young man on this list.
