We will start with our point guards in this year’s junior class. If you have a player who deserves to be recognized, please send @RossVDG14 a direct message on Twitter.
The 6-0 point guard was a unselfish leader on the floor this past season as he continues to develop his game into a true three-level scorer and two-way player. Delgardo is a crafty ball-handler who has great court vision and plays with a high basketball IQ. He will be running the Grassroots circuit with G1 Sports. He will be a notable name to watch as he gears into his senior season as well. Delgardo averaged 18.3 points, 6.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game for Leto this past season.
The 6-0 point guard will be running with the Florida Rebels organization this summer once again. He plays with a fearless edge to his game and has great athleticism. This past season for Lake Highland Prep, Clarke averaged 14.2 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. Clarke also has one of the most efficient jump shots in the Central Florida area. Clarke also holds an offer from Kennesaw State.
The 6-0 guard is very creative on the offensive end and is proficient when it comes to shooting from the perimeter. This season for Victory Christian Academy, Andino shot 42 percent from beyond the arc. Andino averaged 16.2 points, 4.7 rebounds and and 1.7 assists per game.
The 6-0 point guard is at his absolute best when he is driving to the basket as he has the strength to finish around the rim with contact. He is a very dynamic ball handler who is always looking to make the right and unselfish play. His crafty ball-handling skills are also to make note of as he often fools defenses on whether he is going to pass or shoot the basketball.
The 6-3 point guard is tough as nails on the floor. He is a floor general as well as a leader helping set up his teammates for the open shot. He can score on all three levels, whether he is around the rim, mid-range or beyond the arc. On the defensive end he can be an absolute pest and his ability to stay in front of his man is off the charts. Look for his recruitment to start taking notice as we gear into the Grassroots season.
The 6-2 guard is unselfish and a well-talented prospect to keep an eye on this off-season. Burbridge averaged 13.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game this past season for Miami Palmetto. On the defensive end he is very shifty and can make an impact play whether it’s getting a steal or a blocked shot.
