#725 Oliver Barnes Oliver Barnes 6'0" | CG Andrew Jackson Academy | 2027 State SC (Andrew Jackson) – Oliver made some nice hustle plays for Team 13. He is a solid athlete, helped fight for loose balls, and created some turnovers on the defense end.
#740 Jaden Hayden-Barber Jaden Hayden-Barber 6'2" | CG South Pointe | 2026 State SC (South Pointe HS) – Jaden had one of the better crossovers in the event this weekend. He frequently got passed his defender by crossing hard to set up a pass or a shot. He also has good athleticism and put on a show at the rim in transition.
#745 Hilton Dessausure Hilton Dessausure 5'11" | CG Northside Christian | 2025 State SC (Northside Christian) – Hilton has a very good frame and is just starting to fill into it. His combination of length and strength allows him to defend multiple positions and he also can attack around the basket on offense.
#747 Amare Merrell Amare Merrell 6'2" Cane Bay | 2026 SC (Cane Bay HS) – Merrell was one of the more active rebounders on Team 13. He has strong arms which allowed him to snatch the ball away from bigger opponents on multiple occasions. He also has very active hands on defense and created some turnovers.
#771 Amaveon Calloway Amaveon Calloway 5'7" | PG North | 2024 State SC (North Middle HS) – Calloway was one of the more impressive prospects on this team at the Prep Hoops SC Top 250 Expo. He is lightning-quick with the ball, but also has great floor vision and a knack for finishing through contact. Amaveon is also a strong rebounder for his size, which allowed him to push the pace quicker.
#777 Gavin Boyd (Lancaster HS) – Boyd has an extremely quick step and a smooth handle that allowed him to make some plays for teammates on the offensive end. Through the use of both attributes, he frequently beat his defender and was usually in pass-first mode.
#844 Reese Walter Reese Walter 6'1" | SG Boiling Springs | 2025 State SC (Boiling Springs HS) – Reese had a couple of solid performances for Team 13. He is a consistent perimeter shooter, but is also capable of taking his defender off the dribble. Walter has good vision as well when driving close-outs.
