The long wiry prospect has work to do offensively, but he’s interjecting himself on the defensive side when he enters the game. At 6’6 he has the length, and bounce to go after blocks, and rebounds out of his space, he changes shots. He’s an excellent court runner, takes it up strong off two in the paint. 2pts 4rebs, 2blks off the bench.
Moore is a rising prospect in the 2025 class, he continues to transform his game away from the post and into a legitimate wing prospect. His improved handles, passing up top, and on the perimeter allows him to create opportunities for himself off the dribble. We saw a dribble drive mid-range jumper. 3pt range. 12pts
Sykes is gaining confidence in his abilities on the court. He’s been producing good numbers lately, not only in the scoring column buts in other areas as well. He’s defending hard, helping on the boards. He brings a good set of tools to produce buckets. He has the handles to get to his spots and challenge defenders in the paint. He knocked down 2-3’s at this event. 19pts, 4rebs, 1stls, and a block.

He’s a multi sport athlete. Word has it that football is his sport. He did good on the court at this event. He played sparingly, his energy, and activity on the defensive side of the ball is what got our attention. He challenged, and changed shots. By our count he had 10 rebounds, 3 on offense, and a block. He showed a good strong outlet pass, and ran the court hard. He made a 3ptr for his only points.
A solid prospect in this 2025 class. He got the opportunity to show his skills in a lopsided win. He gets, and gives good minutes off the bench. He can shoot with range, he handles well in the open court, and attacks the basket when he sees an opening.
