He is a lead guard who saw his stock rise during the high school season and has started out having a fantastic grassroots season. He has the physical tools to play the combo position, as he can score and facilitate. He is a multi-level scorer who is a dynamic shot-maker off the bounce. Look for Bryson to continue making noise throughout the grassroots season.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2415060' first='Jalen' last='Chandler']</strong> (6'6/F/'25/Covenant Christian) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: xxjalenn</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Jalen makes his debut in the 2025 rankings at the #18-spot. He is a versatile wing who actually can play the 2-5 on the high school level. He has good positional size and is quick off the floor with his hops. He has proven that he can change the course of the game with his ability to take over a game and carry his team in the scoring column. He is a very good scorer off the bounce and often uses his athleticism to finish over the top of defenders at the cup.&nbsp;He has to continue to hone his handles and his perimeter game as he eyes life at the next level.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Jamarcus Thomas</strong> (6'3/SF/'25/Pinson Valley) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: 1k.jamarcus</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @Jamaricus1</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Jamarcus makes his debut in the 2025 rankings at the #27-spot. He is a physical inside presence and is an absolute workhorse. He listed his position as an SF, but he is probably one of the best PFs in the state. He loves to bang, and opponents must be ready for a battle when playing against JT. He is a player with a high motor and intangibles that allow him to impact games in ways that don't always show in the box score. He is a relentless competitor, which often gives him an advantage over many he faces off against.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2278518,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/11/PH-Braylon-Patton-C.png"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/11/PH-Braylon-Patton-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-2278518" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2291522' first='Braylon' last='Patton']</strong>&nbsp;(6'1/PG/'25/Hueytown HS)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: brayllonnn</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @brayllonnn</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Bryson makes his debut in the 2025 rankings at the #28-spot, and is possibly the best pure scorer in the entire class. Many may question that he is ranked too low, and I would offer no argument against their argument. He is a dynamic, prolific, and potent scorer who can score at will. He operates well using ball screens and is very good at creating his own opportunities off the bounce. He is a tremendous slasher who can finish through contact, drive with either hand and score at every level. BP can get it done from behind the arc, as he had several games where he hit five or more threes in a game, and he is efficient when pulling up in the mid-range and going all the way to the basket.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2415098' first='Cannon' last='Pigg'] </strong>(6'6/C/'25/Mars Hill)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @CannonPigg</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Cannon makes his debut in the 2025 rankings at the #41 spot. He is one of the best rebounders in the class, and he showed his paint production during the Final Four. He traces the ball well and has quick jumping abilities. He has a good physical profile, and his strength is an advantage when battling on the inside.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Eli Pouders </strong>(6'6/SG/'25/Mars Hill HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: carsoneli4</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @PoundersEli23</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Eli makes his debut in the 2025 rankings at the #42-spot. Eli is a wing with good positional size and length. He is a threat to score at all levels and showed during the Final Four that he is lethal from behind the arc. Eli has a very good all-around game, as he can do a little bit of everything on the floor and fill up the stat sheet. His game tendency is to be a scorer, but he can be a playmaker when he has the ball, making him an intriguing prospect to consider for coaches at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
