Really, really strong physically. Creed is both a deadly shooter and a bruiser of a guard. His handles must improve, as point guard looks to beyond his capabilities currently. It is simply because his dribbling is too unsteady.
The most important critique of Creed, from the perspective of a college recruiter/coach…he will not play point guard for you. As his senior year arrives Creed Musick Creed Musick 6'3" | SG Tennessee | 2023 State TN is the owner of a delightful assortment of tangible and intangibles, but he will not be a college point guard. This makes a difference, and frankly limits his recruiting potential a touch. What he does well and what he brings to each basketball program he joins is significant though.
Musick is coachable, likable, driven, committed, powerful, skilled, athletic.
In the last six months, Creed transferred to Tennessee High from Daniel Boone High. Last year Creed earned All-District Team Honors, All-Tournament Team Honors, and Hardees Classic All-Tournament Team.
Catch-and-shoot is the bankable skill for Creed. He is a really good leaper, and capable of finishing a dunk in the lane, but long-term the contributions in college will mostly come around the arc as an impressive shooter.

Wildly strong, Zeus Sanders Zeus Sanders 6'2" | SG Austin-East | 2023 State TN bullied opponents out of his way. Getting to the basket was very, very easy for Sanders Sunday. Half of the campers were younger and less physically mature, but Sanders overpowered nearly everyone that checked him, regardless of age and size.
Sanders’ weakness, as far as the combine showed, is outside shooting. He moved exceptionally well without the basketball and earned numerous open looks from the three-point line. Though you can’t make them all, Sanders must broaden his offensive potency with better catch-and-shoot accuracy beyond 16′.
Sanders projects as a strong, daunting two-way player capable of defending two or three positions at the college level. Fantastic guard rebounder.
Offensively, his game is always going to be that of a power wing. More slasher than shooter even though he can occasionally find success at both.
