Continue ReadingRutgers commit, Ace Bailey Ace Bailey 6’9″ | SF McEachern | 2024 State #2 Nation GA is the undisputed #1 player in Georgia’s 2024 class after a killer junior campaign for McEachern. Bailey can play any position 1-5, is a high-flyer around the rim, and can hit 3s off a variety of stepbacks and dribble moves. Long and athletic, blocks a lot of shots around the rim.
Micah Smith Micah Smith 6’7″ | SF Sandy Creek | 2024 State #144 Nation GA has been at the top of this class for a while now and has put together an impressive list of high-major offers. He can play the 3 or the 4 and is hard to stop when attacking from the perimeter, especially his spin move. Smith lives above the rim, dunking everything and he runs the floor really well too.
Region 2-6A Player of the Year, Derrion Reid Derrion Reid 6’7″ | SF Prolific Prep (CA) | 2024 #26 Nation CA-N is a skilled forward prospect with great playmaking ability and physical tools. He’s got excellent out vision and can facilitate offense effectively. Picked up several high-major offers last spring and summer. He’ll be playing with Team Thad this year on the EYBL circuit.
Clark had an excellent junior campaign, worthy of being labeled a stock-riser. He’s an elite, 3-level scorer with a wide range of stepbacks and turn-arounds, lethal in isolation sets. Clark can take smaller defenders to the post and score over them using his size. Averaged 21 ppg and 8 rpg, sharing Region 2-7A Player of the Year honors with Jaiun Simon Jaiun Simon 6’7″ | SF Pebblebrook | 2023 State #220 Nation GA .
Region 4-5A Player of the Year, Lawson provided Tucker with leadership and a consistent presence on the floor. He’s a do-it-all forward that can play multiple positions. Provides double-double kind of production on a consistent basis and often adds a handful of assists too. Lawson is the leader of a solid 2024 group at Tucker that will likely contend in 5A next year.
