Felipe Patino Felipe Patino 6’4″ | SG Winston-Salem Christian | 2024 State NC debuts in the 2024 rankings at the 24th spot following an explosive spring with Team Loaded NC on the 3SSB stage. He’s a certified shooter on the perimeter that’s fearless in getting to his spots and making shots in rhythm. He’s a name to start tracking out of Winston-Salem Christian School with an offer already from East Tennessee State.
Ebrima Jabbi Ebrima Jabbi 6’10” | C Combine Academy | 2024 State NC is a sizeable name to get to know over at Combine Academy as they look to join the OTE stage this upcoming season. He’s a 6-foot-10 post presence that’s shown he can be a mobile threat in more ways than one on the floor with his ability to defend the paint/perimeter and make things happen around the rim as a finisher. He’s only been in the states for a brief period, but as he adjusts to the speed of the game, look for him to emerge as a name for colleges to get to know.
Kyrell Shaw Kyrell Shaw 6’4″ | SG Northside Christian Academy | 2024 State NC has been off to a hot start this spring with PSB Kisonas coming off a state title with Northside Christian Academy. He’s another sharpshooting name to get to know inside NC’s Top 100 that gets after it with his shooting ability. He’s a prospect that knows how to fill the stat sheet up as a rebounding threat and playmaker just as much as a scorer. Colleges in the region should get eyes on him soon!
Xavier Johnson Xavier Johnson 6’5″ | PG Fayetteville Academy | 2024 State NC is a name to get to know out of Fayetteville with Team Wall . He’s a combo guard that’s slowly figuring out his role on the perimeter as a knockdown shooter and finisher around the rim when he puts the ball on the floor. He runs the point guard role at Fayetteville Academy during the HS season, where he’s shown he can handle ball pressure and run the offense there. As he learns to play more without the ball in his hands, look for his stock to grow within the state.
Highlights
Team Swish has hit the ground running as a new grassroots program in the area and Ashton Dillon Ashton Dillon 6’2″ | PG Veritas Christian Academy | 2024 State NC is a name that’s emerged out of AC Reynolds High. He’s shown an advanced skillset as a facilitator and playmaker when he’s on the floor that can get hot in a hurry himself as a scoring threat. He’s even more of a presence defensively that knows how to set quite the tone with his pressure defense. He’s a name out in the Western NC region for colleges to get eyes on.
