Caleb White (5’11/Point Guard/2024)

Caleb White is the #1-ranked player in the Birmingham and surrounding area region. For those that do not know of him, he is one of the top bucket getters in the state. He is a score-first PG capable of taking over a game at any moment, making a game-winner on the biggest stage, and getting 40+ on any given night. He is one of the reasons many say Pinson Valley is the #1 team in the state regardless of class. If Pinson lives up to the expectations, Caleb will be the leader of the stable of guards that will lead Pinson to the promised land. If I were a betting man, I would go all in with Caleb and this Pinson squad.

Win is an ultimate gamer who can score and will be the leader in that area for the Rebels of Vestavia Hills. Win will definitely have a huge load to carry, but he is definitely capable of leading Vestavia into a deep playoff run. He is lethal with the ball in his hands or coming off screens. He is a heady player who plays with a high IQ and, in my opinion, will have the kind of senior year that will have some putting his name in the hat for player of the year.

Salim is the 3rd-ranked player in the Birmingham and surrounding areas region, and many think he could make a case for one of the top two positions. Undoubtedly, he could be the #1 or #2 player in the area, as many coaches on the next level are taking notice of him and putting their names in the hat for his services. I was talking with one coach, and he told me that Salim is the caliber player that will be able to write his own ticket to any college in the country. That’s a lot of expectations on the young guy, but he has been living up to all of it so far. He is a smooth lefty that can score the rock with the best. The scariest thing about Salim is the fact that he is still young, still learning the game, and still growing physically. I can only imagine what I will be writing about this kid in a couple of years.

Many will look and wonder why Pinson Valley has 2-players in the top 5 in this area and think there is bias. Still, when you look at the Pinson Valley team, you not only see how loaded they are at the guard spot, but you see that along with Caleb, Terry better known as TC, are two names that are thrown around in the area as being two of the best players around. Much talk is given about Caleb, but if you study the dynamics of the Pinson squad, TC is at the helm of the ship. This Indians squad will go in the direction that TC goes. Also known as the Wizard, he is a lefty who can adjust and play in any fashion. He can get it done on and off the ball, is efficient at all three levels, and is comfortable in transition and running sets. Many people overlook TC but watch out as the Wizard is about to take his show to the big stage.

Rounding out the Top 5 is Dasean Sellers Dasean Sellers 6'5" | SG Wenonah | 2023 State AL over at Wenonah HS, led by Coach Cedric Lane. He is an impactful scorer in his own right and does not take a back seat to no one in the state when it comes to being able to fill it up. He is going to be looked upon to get Wenonah back in contention for a state championship run. Wenonah, under Coach Lane, had some amazing success during his first stint as the head coach. Upon his return, he has been slowly building an army ready to push the Dragons back to prominence, and obtaining Dasean to lead a talented yet young squad could be the catalyst to move the Dragons back to the civic center. I am looking forward to Dasean putting up some big numbers that will lead to results in the win column. Keep an eye on Dasean and the Dragons.
