Myles Jones Myles Jones 6’2″ | CG Gateway Charter | 2025 State FL is an athletic 6’3 lead guard with a knack for defense. He’s laterally quick and has the length to keep ball handlers in front. He runs the floor, forces turnovers, and finishes well on the break and in traffic.
Highlights
Evan Roberts Evan Roberts 6’1″ | PG Palmetto | 2026 State FL is a twitchy guard with a ton of upside. He’s quick with a dangerous stop start game that allows him to shift his defender. The 2026 guard is an explosive leaper who finishes with touch and explodes for dunks. He gets downhill and draws fouls.
Highlights
Nathan Kirk Nathan Kirk 5’11” | PG Mainland | 2026 State FL is a lightning quick lead guard. The 6’1 2026 prospect gets to the rim and has an impressive finishing package. His speed can throw off timing, and he has floaters to score over bigs.
Jonathan Watts passes the eye test with flying colors. He’s a 6’6 wing with long arms and a frame that could develop over time. The 2027 prospect is developing his skills but is a phenomenal athlete. He’s learning to be more physical, pushes the ball in transition, and has a solid stroke from the free throw line. A long term prospect to keep an eye on.
Sean Standifer Sean Standifer 6’4″ | SG Lake Worth | 2025 State FL is a 6’5 wing with a versatile skillset. He has the size to guard 1-3, rebounds well for the position, and plays with a toughness. He isn’t the best iso scorer, but he can knock down long jumpers and draw fouls on drives. An interesting three and D player who can help a program at the next level.
