Let’s take a look at some of the players that have a chance to have a bigtime season and names that college coaches should have on their radar.
One of the best overall defenders in the area, his team will need him to play a huge role on both ends of the floor this year once again. Last season he averaged over 17 PPG as well as picking up just under 3 steals per contest. Smaller college programs should drop in and give him a look as he could be a nice overall fit for a team on and off the court.
Highlights
He’s a new addition to the Fayetteville Academy squad that didn’t take long getting use to his new team. His performances during Fall League were very impressive as he showed his ability to score and rebound the ball at a high level. Keep a close eye on him as he has all the tools to be one of the top players in the conference this season.
He’s new to the Fayetteville area but steps in and provides a nice amount of offensive firepower to a team that the top player in the County to graduation. His ability to knock down shots from the perimeter as well as make plays above the rim on both ends are some of his best traits and we fully expect him to have a nice overall season for Northwood Temple.
Last season he showed some flashes of what he could potentially be, which included a big-time game in the state playoffs that helped his team advance. This year he looks as if he’s ready to make an immediate impact and step into a leadership role for a team that has quite a bit of youth but are a talented group that will make some noise throughout the year.
Out of all the players listed, he had the best statistical season last season, but we truly feel that the extra year of experience will help him to be able to lead his team to more wins over quality opponents which should only help his recruitment. He has outstanding shooting range as well as impressive court vision which could be seen with his 17 Points & 10 Assist per game stats last year.
