<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">The NAC6 Conference should be as competitive as ever as another season of high school hoops quickly approaches!

Look for the trio of teams to battle it out once again at the top in 2024-25!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Early Favorites</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Knightdale</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Knights finished 7-3 in the NAC6 this past season a few close losses this past February down the stretch should have them playing with a chip on their shoulder. 2025 guard [player_tooltip player_id='2289353' first='Isaiah' last='Green'] is set to prove he's one of the top shooters in the class while 2025 big man [player_tooltip player_id='2283174' first='Brandon' last='Adams'] will look to continue his continued emergence in the frontcourt. 2025 point guard [player_tooltip player_id='2299818' first='Jamari' last='Williams'] is a 5-foot-9 speedy floor general with a lot to prove as well as the Knights look to prove they're top dog in the conference in 2024-25.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Millbrook</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With [player_tooltip player_id='1272558' first='Colt' last='Langdon'] off to college early, it certainly hurts their forecasted rotation but there's hope that the addition of Ashton King can prove effective as he looks to lead with his two-way abilities. He'll certainly have a few young pieces around him to work with with Alonzo Hester in the backcourt and 2026 stretch-forward [player_tooltip player_id='2415282' first='Josh' last='Conti'] on the rise. They'll be a well-coached group as always as they look to continue their conference dominance.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wakefield </h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wakefield is another well-coached group that always has a well-connected group of guards that are tough to beat and 2024-25 should be no different. 2027 wing/forward Avery Hicks got a bit of experience practicing with varsity which should help his cause in 2024-25 though Dylan Goodknecht and Colin Taylor are two returning names who should contribute as well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
