Saragba's physical tools immediately jump off the page and will allow him to make an impact at the varsity level right away. His wingspan is noticeably impressive and leads me to believe he could add a few more inches. He plays with a high motor as well and should be a force on the boards. [player_tooltip player_id='2102289' first='Taj' last='Saragba'] will certainly be one to track over the next few years.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":[2894779],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='2102290' first='Brock' last='Bonner'] made a statement with North Cobb Christian this summer and he'll likely play a major role next to senior point guard [player_tooltip player_id='1062217' first='Gabe' last='Bolden']. Bonner has great size for a freshman at 6'6 but his skillset allows him to be effective either inside or out. His outside shot has looked solid so far and he's an aggressive driver when able to get downhill. If given room to lift off, Bonner will rise up and punch it. With the 2026 rankings set to release soon, Bonner is making a strong case for a top 5 spot in Georgia.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["2102285"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"While the loaded 2023 class is out the door at Cherokee, [player_tooltip player_id='2102285' first='Braylon' last='Luster'] will be expected to step in and contribute right away. The 6'1 combo guard is skilled offensively and understands the game well for a player his age. At the very least, I think Luster will provide a consistent shotmaker to play off of [player_tooltip player_id='1534489' first='Lawrence' last='Sanford'] until they each settle into their new roles. Learning from Sanford will likely benefit Luster tremendously before he eventually takes over the reigns.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["2046364"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='2046364' first='Justin' last='Wise'] has impressed with every showing this summer and he's in a great situation over at North Oconee. Wise will have the opportunity to see the floor right away but North Oconee's strong senior class will help him acclimate. He already has the size to play against varsity guys and I think his deadly three-point shot could help North Oconee win a couple games. Wise enters his freshman year as one of the most highly touted '27s in the state and could garner college interest sooner than later.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["2102283"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Lovett will look to replace a ton of production as Christian Anderson heads off for Oak Hill and they'll likely turn to the young backcourt duo of [player_tooltip player_id='2102283' first='Cameron' last='Cannon'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1543489' first='Kingston' last='Whitty']. Cannon plays with an IQ beyond his years and finds ways to impact the game beyond his scoring ability. That being said, Cannon shoots the three extremely well and loves to turn loose balls into fastbreak points. Cannon will have to learn on the fly this year but often times, that can be the most beneficial.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64ee112dc4089"} /-->
