He produced 15.4 ppg, 6.9 rpg, 2.3 apg and 1.4 spg on 43 percent shooting from the field as a senior at Chapel Hill High.
Jai Williams Jai Williams 6’3″ | SG Wayne Country Day | 2024 State NC looks to make a splash as a new face in North Carolina’s 2024 class at Wayne Country Day School. He’ll look to lead them once again on a deep postseason run after producing 12.3 ppg and 3.3 rpg as a junior on their 29-4 squad from the 2022-23 season. As he fills out in the weight room and improves his defense, he’ll be a name to track in the class in no time.
Highlights
Markiest Houston Markiest Houston 5’10” | CG Rocky River | 2024 State NC is a new face to keep track of at Rocky Ridge High given his exploits in the backcourt. He’s contributed sparingly in the West Charlotte High backcourt putting up just 3.0 ppg as a junior but he looks ready to turn a corner after his productive spring with Upward Stars Carolinas. He’s a heady guard that makes solid decision with the ball in his hands.
Grant Hamilton Grant Hamilton 6’2″ | CG Weddington | 2024 State NC is a name to get to know at Weddington High and on the grassroots stage with CC Elite /Team CP3, depending on the setting. He’s a confidence scoring guard that can fill it up in a hurry while also maintaining the ability to keep others involved. He’s set to have a strong senior campaign as he’s shown this spring with his ability to operate on the perimeter and in the backcourt.
Highlights
Cooper Jackson Cooper Jackson 6’7″ | PF Reagan | 2024 State NC is a big name to get to know out of Reagan High and with NC Spartans on the grassroots stage. He’s a 6-foot-7 forward that plays with a ton of energy on both ends of the floor given his length and athleticism. He’s shown he can finish with authority offensively and maintains quite the presence as a rim-protector and rebounder in the paint. He’s a name for college programs in the region to get eyes on given his skillset.
