He plays with a ton of energy on the floor, flying around for rebounds and altering shots with his length and athleticism. As he continues his development and shows he can step out and knock down shots on the perimeter at the forward spot, look for his name to grow in the 2028 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2194636"],"_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_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-670f242cce35d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Smith is another sizeable name to know in the 2028 class set to make quite the impact at Queens Grant High in 2024-25. He was a top performer at this year's Phenom Hoops NC Frosh 40 as he showcased his ability to finish around the rim as well as extend the floor with his ability to handle and create on the perimeter. He's a name with a bright future in North Carolina.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2619625"],"_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_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-670f242cce39c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tucked away at Havelock High in the 252, [player_tooltip player_id='2619625' first='Nehemiah' last='Martin'] is an intriguing name to know at 6-foot-6. He's a two-way presence in the paint who's shown he can be quite the anchor when he's locked into things. He'll be one to track given his energy and effort around the rim in the 2028 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2623268"],"_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_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-670f242cce3d4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dalton was another standout performer at Phenom Hoops NC Frosh 40 who showed he's got a bright future heading into Year 1 at Forsyth Country Day School. At 6-foot-5, he's another prospect with long-term potential as a top name given his versatility already at the forward spot. He'll be a name to keep a close eye on this season in the 2028 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2619630"],"_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_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-670f242cce409"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hill is an emerging name to know over at Panther Creek in the 919 area in the 2028 class. He's another prospect who's shown he can fly around and utilize his length and athleticism to make an impact on the floor. Given Coach Robinson's pedigree for molding big men over the past few seasons, Hill gives him an intriguing piece to work with, should he be ready for the varsity stage in 2024-25.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
