Lawrence Brown Lawrence Brown 5'11" | PG St. Andrew's | 2026 State MD | St. Andrew’s ’26
Shooting is not the first thing most people would think that Brown excels at, but I beg to differ. I watched him hit 4/10 threes from vs. Severn to go along with 5/6 free throws. Brown has volleyball line range and gets to his spots from the in-between areas as well.
Derek Dixon Derek Dixon 6'4" | SG Gonzaga | 2025 State #153 Nation MD | Gonzaga ’25
Every time I watch Dixon shoot the ball, I have a firm belief that it’s going in. He hit 4/8 threes vs. Ireton. Dixon has unlimited range and uses shot fakes to keep defenders off balance. On top of that, he can create space for his jumper off the dribble.
David Dorsey III David Dorsey III 6'6" | PF Frederick | 2024 State MD | Frederick ’24
Dorsey hit 3/7 from downtown vs. Jefferson. He has a soft touch at 6’6″, and is a dangerous mid-range pull-up shooter as well.
Thomas Farrell Thomas Farrell 6'0" | SG Whitman | 2024 State MD | Whitman ’25
I watched Farrell hit 6/15 (40%) from three-point land in two games this month. What impressed me most was not just his volume, but his short memory. The term “shooters shoot” definitely applies to Farrell.
Dezmond Hopkins Dezmond Hopkins 6'0" | CG Patriot | 2024 State VA | Patriot ’24
Hopkins has long been on my radar as a knockdown shooter. He had a great performance vs. South Lakes during which he connected on 4/5 attempts from behind the arc. Hopkins is also adept at using shot fakes to make foes hesitate.
Jack Siwert Jack Siwert 6'2" | SG Centreville | 2025 State VA | Centreville ’25
Siwert is a 6’3″ guard who is shooting 50% from 3 on the year per Wildcats Head Coach Andrew Hypnar. I saw him connect on all three of his tries vs. Gar-Field. Siwert has incredible range and a quick release.
Ricardo Zeno | McKinley Tech ’26
Zeno has been labeled a gym rat by Trainers’ Coach Head Coach Ali Foster, and it shows in his game. He is a constant outside threat. Zeno drilled 3/4 from downtown vs. Seton. He can put it on the deck and attack closeouts as well.
