The St. Francis (PA) commit has a smooth release on his jumper and can knock down triples in bunches. Clayville is more than just a shooter as he can also get into the paint off the bounce and finish in a variety of ways around the basket. He has a nice touch on his floater and is an underrated passer. Clayville had 13 20-point games in his senior season as he was one of the top scorers in Middlesex County.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1395998' first='Nico' last='Peña'], 6'1 St. Peter's Prep</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Peña paced the Marauders in scoring as he helped them to a Hudson County Tournament title and a 26-3 record. The 6'1 guard uses his handle effectively as he is able to get to the rim off the bounce and finish around the basket. Peña has a good release on his jumper and sets his feet before he shoots.

The 6'4 guard explodes off the floor for dunks and finishes through contact around the rim. Carson uses his size to see over his defender and he makes opponents pay for giving him space behind the arc. He works hard on the glass and can defend multiple positions on the floor. Carson is looking to conclude his varsity career with a Group 4 final in his last high school game on Saturday.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1203976' first='Taj' last='Bryant'], 6'2 Patrick School</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bryant has had a solid 2023-24 season for the Celtics as he's established himself as a reliable option in the backcourt.
