He's producing 14.1 points, 9.2 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game and was formerly committed to Maryland before announcing his de-commitment and joining Word of God on the OTE stage. He's a high-major target at 6-foot-10 with the tools to succeed at the next level as his development continues over the next few months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2633043"],"_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-677e07de1003e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Miller is an intriguing guard prospect for DI and DII programs in the region to get to know. He's a sizeable creator off the bounce at 6-foot-5 who's shown he's capable of getting paint touches and making things happen within the rhythm of the offense. He's quite the finisher around the rim and in traffic who's shown he's worthy of being targeted by programs in need of a versatile guard presence in their rotation.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1332455"],"_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-677e07de10083"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Evans looks to make a splash on the OTE scene with the YNG Dreamerz squad as he debuts at No. 50 in the latest rankings update. He's a versatile presence at 6-foot-3 who's shown he can operate in a variety of ways in the backcourt. He'll look to make his presence felt on a talented Moravian Prep/YNG Dreamerz rotation which features a number of top prospects in the state already.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2700434"],"_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-677e07de100c1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Linney is a new face in the 2025 class to get to know at Kings Mountain High. He's emerged on the wing as a prospect to know as he's put up 19.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.5 assists per game. At 6-foot-3, 190 pounds, he's shown he can hold his own in more ways than one both scoring and rebounding the ball in bunches. As he finds his efficiency in conference play, look for his recruitment to grow as a DII/DIII prospect with programs in the region.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2715522"],"_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-677e07de100fd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wilson finds himself at 59th in the latest rankings update as a new face. He's emerged as a point guard prospect to know given his prowess distributing the ball. He leads Mooresville High currently with 6.1 assists per game. He leads the NCHSAA 4A West division currently while also racking up 12.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.6 steals per game as conference play ramps up. He's a prospect for DII and DIII programs in need of a true point guard to target given his playmaking ability.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2699092"],"_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-677e07de10138"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Madeira has been a big reason for Concord Academy's success in 2024-25. He makes his debut at 76th in the latest rankings update for the 2025 class as he's averaging 8.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.6 steals per game on 46 percent shooting from the floor and 34 percent shooting from behind the arc. He's been pivotal in their 11-2 start to the season and has emerged as a prospect for DII/DIII/JUCO programs in the region to get eyes on in the 2025 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2516211"],"_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-677e07de10172"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sherrill has been a combo guard prospect to get to know in the 2025 class out of Highland Tech High in the Gastonia area. He's pouring in a whopping 29.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.7 rebounds per contest in his senior season. He's quickly emerging as a prospect for DII/DIII/JUCO programs to know as he debuts at No. 92 in the latest rankings update.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2276718"],"_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-677e07de101ac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bell makes his debut in the Top 100 at 97th in the latest rankings update in the 2025 class. He's been quite the presence in the Freedom Christian Academy lineup, posting 10.9 points, 9.5 rebounds and 2.7 assists per contest. He's been a sizeable presence in the rotation and racked up eight double-doubles already with his activity on the hardwood. He remains a 6-foot-3 wing/guard for DIII/JUCO programs to target given his production on the NCISAA stage. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
