<p>With such a deep group of talented players across the state, it's only normal to see many eclipse the one thousand point threshold over their high school careers. With it being such an achievement to accomplish, we decided to take a look at some of the newest members of the club this year. Check out some more guys who have etched their names into the history books over the course of this season.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2279860' first='Jordan' last='Gonder']</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The NW Cabarrus standout crossed the 1,000 point barrier in December, as he continues to excel both on the hardwood and the football field. He's picked up multiple D2 offers to play football, but continues to lead his group as a physical forward who finishes well on the interior.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2351709' first='Jayvin' last='Bradley'] - Neuse Charter</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Bradley has always been a good high school player, but a massive jump in production has him going from 11 to 26 PPG this season and crossing the 1K mark! He's an electric scorer at that level and should have Neuse Charter primed to be a tough exit in the state tournament.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1672429' first='Cameron' last='Newman']</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Newman is now the newest member of the 1K club as of this article, reaching the milestone Wednesday evening for Gaston Christian as only a sophomore. He is quite advanced for his class, with great playmaking and a slithery scoring ability despite his 5'10 frame.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1409592' first='Isaiah' last='Thomas']</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The guard from Wayne Prep is an electric, quick scorer who has hit the 1,000 point milestone earlier this year, and puts up impressive numbers every night. His change of speed and mid-range ability should make him a next-level target soon.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} -->
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Dylan Lampley - Scotland County</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lampley transferred from Richmond County to Scotland County this past season and finally hit the 1,000 point mark in his senior year, as he's become a leading player for the Fighting Scots. He's an outstanding high school player in that area of the state.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} -->
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1273265' first='Isiah' last='Lash']</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lash has become even more efficient his junior year as South Stokes are off to a hot start. He's been efficient as well as scoring in volume as he captured point number 1,000 a few weeks ago. He olds an offer from Guilford and should expect to receive more soon. </p>

<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} -->
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1990406' first='Dacen' last='Petty']</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Petty has shown he can be a capable shooter so far this season and is dominating opponents with East Rutherford, one of the best prospects in a while for the school. His millennium mark came earlier this season and he should continue to tear up scoring marks.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} -->
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1556663' first='Q' last='Williams']</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Williams is only a sophomore but has reclassed once, but hit the 1K mark this year. Nevertheless, his ability to play mature beyond his years and both score and make plays from the point guard spot is impressive, and is the key to a FCDS state title run.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} -->
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1774476' first='Jordan' last='Patterson']</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Patterson is an electric guard from West Caldwell who was a recent addition to the club, hitting the mark against West Lincoln last week. He's putting up gaudy numbers and is starting to draw D1 and D2 interest from schools as a junior.</p>
