Chris Cornish– SWFL Hoops 2024 RED: Cornish, a 6-4 wing makes impact plays in a variety of ways whether he is finishing with vicious dunks or making crisp passes to his teammates for great shots. Cornish is also an athletic rebounder who can be a force when it comes to a transition offense. His quickness is the next big step to help him become a multi-dimensional player.
Sterling Moody Sterling Moody 6'5" | PG Impact Christian | 2025 FL – OTOD 2025: Moody is still finding his rhythm after coming off an ACL injury that derailed most of his sophomore season on the high school circuit. His high motor and energy were very productive for OTOD 2025 as he continues to get his full legs back. He is an exceptional rim-runner whether it’s on the break or off a made basket on the other end. The 6-5 forward looks to have a ton of upside and promise as he gears up for his junior season.
Daniel Coldiron- Florida Elite SW: The 6-0 wing was putting up numbers on the stat sheet as he brings a smooth approach with him to the court on every single night. His ability to score on all three levels has spoke volume on his game whether he is attacking the rim, pulling up from the mid-range or becoming a threat to shoot from beyond the arc. Whenever his team needed a bucket, Coldiron would deliver when it mattered most.
Jordan Taylor Jordan Taylor 6'7" | PF Charlotte | 2025 FL – SWFL Hoops 2025: The 6-7 forward plays a versatile role whether he is in the post or a stretch forward with an occasional threat to shoot from the mid-range. He was a sensational rebounder finishing with a double-double in three of the four games last weekend. Taylor has huge upside as he gears up for his junior season where he could start to seek interest from the college coaches.
Daunte White Daunte White 6'6" | PF LaVergne | 2024 State TN – Clarksville Crossovers– The 6-6 power forward is a threat around the rim whether it was finishing with either hand or helping on the boards. His physical presence has spoken volumes about his game and can finish against multiple defenders. On the defensive end he brings quick movement and the ability to defend multiple positions.
Patrick Johnson Patrick Johnson 6'7" | PF Gateway Charter | 2025 State FL – SWFL Hoops 2024 RED: The 6-8 power forward is a Top 10 ranked prospect in the state of Florida for the Class of 2025 and will be playing with the SWFL Hoops 17U team this weekend. Johnson nearly does it all as he brings a ton of athleticism and versatility on the floor. Johnson can score on all three levels as well as finish viciously around the rim.
