2023 PGs to Watch During the Live Periods

These are some of Georgia’s top point guards that have been flying under the radar. I expect these guys to gain a lot of attention throughout the remaining live periods this summer and in the upcoming high school season.

5’11 PG James Tyre James Tyre 5'10" | PG Lambert | 2023 State GA – Lambert / Atlanta Timberwolves

Tyre is a gifted athlete that commands the offense well. He’s a tough shot maker that can get hot from deep. His twitchy handle and quick shot release make him dangerous in the mid-range. Tyre’s put together an impressive spring playing with the Atlanta Timberwolves and it’s only a matter of time before he starts receiving offers.

6’3 PG Chase Hill Chase Hill 6'2" | SG Rockdale County | 2023 State GA – Rockdale County / PSB Atlanta

Chase Hill Chase Hill 6'2" | SG Rockdale County | 2023 State GA is a smart point guard that coaches can trust to lead the offense. He plays the game at his own speed and is methodical when setting things up in the half-court. He’s got good size at 6’3 and plays hard defensively. Simply put, there’s not many things Chase Hill Chase Hill 6'2" | SG Rockdale County | 2023 State GA can’t do.

6’1 PG Jaylen Sanford Jaylen Sanford 6'1" | CG Jones County | 2023 State GA – Jones County / Game Elite Big 5

Sanford is an uber athletic point guard that can score at all three levels. He plays well in the pick-and-role and is able to create space for his mid-range which is nearly automatic. Sanford is also a springy jumper that can finish above the rim. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Sanford averaged 20-25 PPG for Jones County next year.

6’2 PG Kevin Anderson – Valor Christian / Team Dickerson

Kevin Anderson has been undoubtedly one of my favorite guards to watch this spring. He’s able to bully smaller defenders with his toughness and physicality while hurting bigger defenders with his nasty hesitation cross and range from downtown. Anderson is crafty in transition, creating easy buckets for his teammates. At this point, Anderson is criminally under-recruited. 

5’11 PG Jeremy Armour – McDonough / Georgia Fire

Armour is a defensive menace, capable of changing an entire game. He’s always playing hard and hustling for loose balls. He’s disciplined while guarding in the half-court, especially when playing help side defense and often disrupts passing lanes and shots around the rim. Armour is also a solid finisher and displays great focus when finishing through contact. Armour might not put up huge numbers but he impacts the game tremendously and one coach will be lucky to have him.
