He's a prospect who's athleticism and length are hard to come by at 6-foot-5 with a strong knack for attacking the painted area and defending with good instincts on the opposite end. He was a key cog this season at Southern Guilford in his final season as they made a deep run in the state playoffs. He's a prospect who's developed consistently over the past few seasons. College coaches at the DI and DII levels would be wise to check on his status on the recruiting trail.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/CoachJuke/status/1788644697256165546","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/CoachJuke/status/1788644697256165546 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1608360' first='Xavier' last='Perry'] | 5'11 Point Guard | Victory Christian Center/Charlotte ACES</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Perry was a terror for opponents all season long in the NCISAA at Victory Christian Center at the lead guard spot and he continues to be a factor with Charlotte ACES on the grassroots scene. Fresh off a NCISAA State Title, Perry has shown his pedigree to win games this grassroots cycle. He's shown he can push the pace and score in a hurry with his prowess getting to the painted area and knocking down shots with efficiency from 3-point range. He's one of the more underrated perimeter threats in the class, at least in the recruiting realm, he shot 36 percent this past season while knocking down 64 3-pointers on the HS stage. He's a prospect looking for an opportunity on the college stage to show off what he can do. Caldwell CC has offered him but look for things to possibly change as more programs get eyes on him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1693993' first='Kaleb' last='Spencer'] | 6'9 Forward | First Flight</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Spencer is a sizeable name to get to know in the 2024 rankings who's still available out of First Flight High. He's a prospect who's shown he can play inside and out despite his size on the floor. He can handle the ball on the perimeter and create his own shot off the bounce as well as battle in the painted area to make things happen. As he continues to develop and maintain his conditioning on the floor, he's a prospect for DII programs in the region to get eyes on. He put up 12.7 PPG, 5.5 RPG and 1.0 BPG as a senior in 2023-24.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='854906' first='Quasim' last='Oden'] | 6'1 Point Guard/Guard | Grace Christian</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Oden is coming off an All-State season with Grace Christian which saw him lead the backcourt with 18.3 PPG, 4.2 RPG, 4.0 APG and 2.1 SPG on 47 percent shooting from the floor. He's a guard prospect who doesn't force shots given his ability to handle the basketball and handle defensive pressure. He navigates well to the painted area, getting paint touches and makes things happen as a playmaker and scorer with consistency when he's on the hardwood. He's quite the underrated and underrecruited name in the 2024 class. DII and DIII programs in the region would be wise to get eyes on him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2238223' first='Brady' last='Kester'] | 6'8 Forward | Davidson Day</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kester is a versatile forward with quite the motor out of Davidson Day School. Fresh off a state title, Kester has shown he can do a little bit of everything to boost his team to victory in the frontcourt. He's shown he can hold his own rebounding the ball, altering shots in the paint and won't hesitate to step out and knock down shots on the perimeter. He's a prospect at 6-foot-8 for DI and DII programs in need of a hard worker who plays with energy and effort. He can finish in traffic and battle under pressure, as evidenced by his highlights below. He's another available sizeable name still unsigned as a senior.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/DDSPatriotsBB/status/1753097032821022958","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/DDSPatriotsBB/status/1753097032821022958 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1055591' first='Chandler' last='Watts'] | 6'6 Guard/Wing | Combine Academy</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Watts is a strong, physical presence on the hardwood who's shown he can be a factor this grassroots cycle with NJ Shoreshots on the UAA scene. He's got a nice blend of athleticism and strength that allow him to attack the painted area on the fast break and in the halfcourt. He's electric in transition, looking to always finish with authority when given opportunities. Given his high academic status, it would be wise for college programs to take a look at him. He's still turning heads of college programs this grassroots cycle as he recently earned offers from the University of Albany and Fairfield.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/chandler_watts1/status/1792944275342147661","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/chandler_watts1/status/1792944275342147661 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":"","_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player":"","_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player":"","_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player":"","_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_player":"","_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_player":"","_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":6,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66549bf872acb"} /-->
