Jani Vanholten | 6-2 | Guard | 2023 | Athens Drive High School
Vanholten is a guard with a quick first step that he consistently uses to get to the rim and finish. He runs the floor well in transition and in the half-court, he has the ability to create for himself and for others. He displays good shot mechanics and the ability to consistently shoot threes off the catch.
James Parrish | 6-2 | SG | 2023 | Broughton Magnet High School
Parrish is a big-time shooter off the catch and once you begin to play him for the three-point shot, he can then pump fake and drive the ball to the basket. He displays good handles and deceptive speed that he uses to get into the lane and finish.
Nathan Fife Nathan Fife 6'0" | PG Sanderson | 2025 State NC | 6-1 | SG | 2025 | Sanderson High School
Another big-time shooter with range and a ton of confidence. He has great shot mechanics and a lightning-quick release. You give him space and he will make you pay. He is also an active defender and uses his hands to play and create his fair share of steals and fastbreak opportunities.
Fisayo Adebimpe | 6-2 | PG | 2023 | Enloe High School
Adebimpe has great handles and he uses his handles to penetrate and create for himself and others. He has excellent vision and passing abilities. He uses his length to harass opposing ballhandlers. He can hit the catch and shoot jumper and when he is in the lane he can use his high arching floater to get off his shot over taller players.
Hayes Oxendine Hayes Oxendine 6'3" | SG Leesville Road | 2025 State NC | 6-2 | PG | 2025 | Leesville Road High School
Hayes fits the mold of many of the players on this list in that he is a big-time shooter with big-time confidence. He can shoot the three of the catch and off the dribble. He has solid handles and that allows him to get into the paint where he can create for his teammates.
