Continue ReadingFlorida’s senior class is one step closer to the next level as their final varsity begins in November. A reclassification and a handful of transfers shook up the top prospect. Without further ado, We’ve got answers to all your burning questions.
Who has a high ceiling?
At 6’5, Jamie Phillips Jamie Phillips 6'5" | CG Winter Haven | 2024 State FL combined proximal size with strength. When he gets downhill, he’s a force few high school-level defenders can handle. He has a high IQ and knows how to use his advantages. Add in high-level passing, deep three-point range, and defensive chops, and you have a five-tool player that Stetson will love.
Which prospect from your area is ranked too low?
With elite speed, quickness, and a coloring streak, Ta’veon Jones is an elite playmaker. His move to the SIAA may put him in the position to impress coaches against tougher competition. His height will make coaches question him, but armed with a college physique and proving he can play with talented players will help him convince them otherwise.
Who has the potential to outplay their ranking this year?
The 6’8 shooting guard Diamant Blazi Diamant Blazi 6'8" | PF Jordan Christian | 2024 State FL has the positional size and athleticism to reach high major status with a strong senior season. He dunks everything around the rim, flashes creation skills for himself and others, and has the lateral quickness to defend several positions. One senior in Florida always shoots up the rankings, and it could be Blazi.
Anyone you think will play their way onto this list?
The 2024 class is insanely deep. We left off several guys who’ve compiled resumes worthy of college interest. Ralph Blanc Ralph Blanc 6'5" | SF Mater Lakes | 2024 FL , an athletic 6’6 forward who rebounds and plays above the rim, could play his way onto the list if he impresses during fall ball. Telario Pringle Telario Pringle 6'0" | PG Wekiva | 2024 State FL , a hard-playing, defensive guard who can create shots in space, will battle for a spot as the next update nears.
