The 5-10 freshman point guard has a combination skillset of size and speed when he has the basketball in his hands. Moss seems to be very adapted when it comes to scoring off of drives to the basket and is unafraid to finish at the front of the rim, while absorbing contact. His release on his jump shot has continued to improve as well where he can score off the bounce as well as off the catch. He makes a good defensive presence as well where he can guard multiple positions on and off the ball.
The 6-7 freshman power forward shows fluidity on both ends of the floor where he can score around the rim against multiple defenders on the offensive end, as well as rim protection and shot blocking abilities on the defensive end. He shows great intangibles to get his teammates involved as he is one of the top underrated passers in the state for his position. Nelson will be a name scouts are going to get used to hearing as he is already seeking college offers and still hasn’t turned 15 years old. He has a clear pathway and is only going to continue getting better for the next four years.
The 6-3 freshman combo guard brings a good combination skillset of energy and toughness at both ends of the floor. Delancy is also an above-average rebounder for his size where he can quickly push the ball ahead in transition finishing on all three scoring levels. He also tends to attack the basket effectively where he can finish on either side of the rim, as well as score on put backs. Delancy is a work-horse where he can carry his team to a load of wins this upcoming season and will be a name to keep tabs on this season. He currently holds an offer from South Florida but don’t expect that to be his last offer.
The 6-1 freshman point guard has a tremendous first step where he can blow by defenders finishing above the rim as well as off the bounce. He has a high release on his jump shot where he can comfortably knock down shots from up to 20-feet from the basket. His defensive footwork has also continued to improve as he can defend multiple positions utilizing his speed and awareness at the perimeter. Keep an eye on this kid as he is playing his first high school season in Florida, after transferring from the Atlanta area over the summer. He is highly skilled and will be fun to watch for the next four years.
