Cam Jones Cam Jones 5’10” | PG Heritage | 2026 State NC is another name at Heritage High who should do damage in the backcourt this season alongside Jon Mwanda Jon Mwanda 6’3″ | PG Heritage | 2025 State NC . He’s a gritty combo guard who knows how to make an impact on both ends of the floor with his skill set.
Elijah Deifer Elijah Deifer 5’11” | PG Ravenscroft | 2026 State NC continues to move from the Watch List into the 130th spot in the latest rankings update. He had himself a productive grassroots campaign with WCBA 2025’s as he continues to develop in the class. He’ll be one to keep an eye on at Ravenscroft this season.
Highlights
Xavier Stroud Xavier Stroud 5’10” | CG Southeast Raleigh | 2026 State NC is a shifty combo guard name to get to know out of Southeast Raleigh High in the class. He’s a 5-foot-10 menacing presence given his confidence handling the basketball and his ability to defend 94 feet. Look for his name to grow with the Bulldogs this season.
Davis is a name out of Page High to keep an eye on as he works his way off the Watch List and into No. 140 in the latest rankings update. He’s a confident guard prospect who’s shown he can knock down shots on the perimeter and off the bounce while keeping others involved. He’ll be an interesting piece at Page High in 2023-24.
Zaymon Gibson Zaymon Gibson 5’10” | CG Farmville Central | 2026 State NC is a young prospect to get to know with Farmville Central High as they continue to build their dynasty. He’s another combo guard who can do a little bit of everything in their backcourt and should boost their attack in 2023-24.
