He's a wiry forward prospect at 6-foot-8 who's shown he can be versatile on the defensive end and dial it up from deep on the perimeter with his length and range. He flies around the floor getting blocks and deflections and knows how to make his presence felt offensively. He's a prospect for DI and DII programs in need of a mobile forward prospect to take a look at this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1226599"],"_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-672831fe5c687"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Smith is another mobile forward prospect who's shown he can operate inside and out, though he likes to operate in the painted area. He's a prospect for programs to get eyes on given his energy and activity around the painted area. He's continued to draw DI interest from a number of MM/LM programs across the region. It wouldn't be surprising to see him announce his college decision soon given his counterpart, [player_tooltip player_id='1410266' first='Gevonte' last='Ware'], is already headed to Rutgers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1731146"],"_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-672831fe5c6ce"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He's an unsigned senior name for college programs to get eyes on the OTE stage with the YNG Dreamerz/Moravian Prep. At 6-foot-8, he's really starting to fill out his frame and get ready for the next level by playing against top-notch competition. He's a sizeable forward name with versatility and good instincts when he's on the hardwood. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1892438"],"_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-672831fe5c710"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fannon has proven to be quite the engine for East Lincoln heading into his senior season. He's a sizeable stretch-forward who produced 21.6 points, 7.6 rebounds and 1.1 assists per contest while knocking down 103 3-pointers as a junior in 2023-24. He finished Top 5 in the state of North Carolina in 3-pointers made according to MaxPreps as he continues to improve his presence around the rim. Look for him to show his improvements on the glass this season as a DII/DIII prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1990377"],"_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-672831fe5c752"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tangiora is starting to show his stuff in the Swansboro High frontcourt as he heads into his senior year. He's an active big man who knows how to make his presence felt offensively after posting 16.3 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game this past season. His presence was a big reason the Pirates made it to the NCHSAA 3A Elite Eight this past year and with their core backcourt returning, they're looking to do more damage. Tangiora is a prospect for DII/DIII programs in the region to get eyes on. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2302749"],"_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-672831fe5c794"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Leuthardt is an international prospect with some savvy on the hardwood with Mooresville High. He's got good instincts around the rim as a shot-blocker and rebounder. Offensively, he's shown nice touch around the painted area and does well to mix things up with his playmaking and shot creation on the perimeter. He's a prospect for DII and DIII programs in the region to take a look at this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2448909"],"_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-672831fe5c7d5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Studer is a tweener forward at 6-foot-5 to get to know at West Stokes High this season. He plays with tremendous energy on the floor, flying around on both ends to make his presence felt. He's a double-double machine on the glass and isn't afraid to mix it up as an attacker off the bounce. Randolph College and Roanoke College have extended him offers as he goes into his senior season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1211774"],"_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-672831fe5c816"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ahart is an underrated name to get to know in the Christ School frontcourt this season. He's a 6-foot-9 forward who's shown he can be a presence in the pick-and-roll game as well as on the perimeter as a stretch forward and creator. He's an improving name with offers recently from Newberry College and Oglethorpe University with another season approaching. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1892439"],"_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-672831fe5c858"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Powers is another underrated forward prospect in the 336 area to get to know at Davie County High. He does a lot of his work early, including the dirty work, in creating space/opportunities in the painted area for points and is quite the efficient shooter from deep. He produced a double-double with 13.9 points and 10.6 rebounds along with 2.2 assists and 2.0 blocks per contest as a junior and remains a name for DII and DIII programs in the region to know given his activity on the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2243806"],"_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-672831fe5c89b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fenn is a prospect who continues to climb up the PH radar in the 2025 class out of Palisades High. He's a patient forward prospect who lets the game come to him with a nice shooting touch on his shot in the mid-range and painted areas. He's a prospect who can do more than score the ball and utilizes his size well to make an impact on the floor. As he continues his development, he's a name for colleges of all levels to get eyes on. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
