Femi Ogunbunmi (5’5/PG/’25/Britt Basketball Academy White)

Femi is a small lead guard who controls the offense and sets the pace for his squad. As mentioned, he is not the biggest, at 5’5, but he is a heady player who is reliable as an orchestrator of the offense. He is as crafty as I saw when it came to point guards at the tournament. He was solid with the ball in his hands and a good visionary as a passer. He thrived running the show, as he has the keys to the squad.
Beau Harvey (6’1/PG/’25/Rising Pros Training)

Beau was shaky early in the game I was watching him compete, but when he got it going, he was one of the best scorers I saw in the entire tourney. He is a multi-level scorer with a nice stroke from the perimeter. He maneuvers well through the paint off the bounce and is a good finisher at the rim. Even though he is listed as a PG, I would say he is a score-first PG, but truthfully, he could be effective at any perimeter position. He is a scoring machine who plays with a lot of confidence and is very aggressive, seeking ways to put up shots.
Tucker Malin Tucker Malin 6'3" | CG Good Hope | 2025 State AL (6’3/CG/’25/NC PREMIER)

Tucker is a scoring talent who is at his best getting to the cup. He is very aggressive off the dribble and gets downhill in a hurry. He beats defenders off the rip as he quickly gets into driving lanes and does a good job finishing at the rim. Tucker is comfortable scoring off the catch or off the bounce and is really good at creating separation to get his shot off. With his ability to put pressure on the defense and get a bucket at any moment, he showed that he uses the attention he gets to create a lot of good looks for his teammates.
Carson Purkey Carson Purkey 6'0" | PG Hayden | 2025 State AL (6’0/PG/’25/NC Premier)

Carson is a skilled lead guard. He is a very good three-point shooter and was very productive from deep in the game I saw. He is good in his c&s opportunities as well as his c&s opportunities coming off screens. He does a good job manipulating defenders with his handles, which leads to being able to get to his spots on the floor. He has the vision and passing skills to make the right passes. He is a talented playmaker who can create his own offense as well as opportunities for his teammates.
Alexander Rokovich (6’1/SG/’25/Team Ballnetic)

Alex is a lethal shooter from behind the arc. The three-ball is the strength of his game, and he is a player that defenders must be aware of at every moment he is on the floor. Despite his scoring prowess from deep, he spent time at the lead guard spot initiating the offense. He has a good understanding of the game and good vision, which allows him to see openings to get his teammates the rock when defenders give too much attention to the potential of him getting his shot off from deep. He forces defenders to be locked in at all times, which led to some overplay, which led to some easy offensive looks.
Andrew Moseley (6’0/CG/’25/AR Elite)

Andrew is listed as a combo guard but spent a good bit of time running the show for his squad. He has good court awareness and vision and gets his teammates the rock where they can be productive. He is an unselfish player who is very reliable with the rock in his hands. He gets his squad into what his coach is looking for, as he is like a coach on the floor. He showed his ability to score in his middle game and from behind the arc. He has a good understanding of floor spacing, and he does a good job keeping the ball moving. He often got into the heart of the defense in the game I saw, and his game draws fouls, which leads to trips to the charity stripe.
