Continue ReadingThe first NCAA live period of the year is May 17-19, allowing college coaches from every level to evaluate players in-person. So while some 2025 prospects have interests or even offers, many have nether. Below are SIX guys whose recruitment should takeoff after next weekend:
Never shying away from the moment, Harris is always prepared to make a splash play no matter who he’s playing beside. He gets active on defense, poking the ball away for steals and contesting shots. And as a knockdown shooter when his team has the ball, Harris stays ready to fire or drive to the hoop.
Highlights
A versatile stretch forward, Hunter has a smooth jumper that he can get to from anywhere. His catch-and-shoot game is potent from beyond the arc. But, when he has to create for himself, he also has the footwork to go east and west to get to his spots around the elbow or get off his step-back jumper.
Highlights
Kelsey’s vision and accurate passing are his calling card, but he’s recently been supplementing those skills with his play as a guard connector on the EYBL circuit. Working mostly off-ball this spring, his corner three has been money. That and his hustle plays have been crucial to the team’s success.
Highlights
The high volume three-point shooting that Muhammad provides for Team Final Black is accentuated by his ability to set screens from his 4-spot. He can be directly involved in the action, opting to pick-and-pop or ghost the screen to get himself open. And when Muhammad’s on the backside, he instinctively sets off-ball screens to indirect himself open.
Highlights
Although he’s one of the top prospects in Delaware and on a top UAA team, Lloyd is still a bit of an unknown in the region. He tries to swat everything on defense and dunk every time he gets a post up opportunity or is rolling to the rim on offense, no matter who is on him. However, he shows touch at the foul line and from the mid-range as well.
Highlights
Ra’ifa is a dynamic scorer, regardless of which guard spot he’s playing. Comfortable moving without the ball, he’s an elusive threat at the second and third levels coming off of screens or DHOs. And when his SMM squad needs a bucket, Ra’ifa can break his man down off-the-bounce and get to anywhere he needs to.
