2027 Scorers

New readers: Use code "Proia30" at checkout     As we continue to shine a spotlight on some promising prospects outside of our top 50, we decided to turn to the bucket-getters. In a game that is becoming increasingly more focused on what value you bring to your team as a scorer--especially for the guards--we thought we would touch on several guys that excel in creating their own shot. Let's get to it!    -Ayana will likely be one of our biggest stockrisers in our next rankings update as he has really impressed our scouts with his play. Ayana is a versatile W/F tweener that can put it on the deck, finish in the paint amongst the trees, knock down 18-footers, and guard several spots at the defensive end of the floor. Want to see him outwork his matchup to long rebounds and 50/50 balls instead of relying on his size/length but he has pretty good instincts and usually knows where the ball is coming off the rim. If he can continue to put on weight and become a lights-out three point shooter, I think he can become a top 25 prospect in the local class by his senior year if not sooner.     -Love watching the lightning-quick, explosive Adofo play whether it is in an AAU or HS setting because of the flash that he plays with on a nightly basis. One of the most explosive players in the area at his size, he can rebound and finish with the best of them around the basket due to how quickly and how high he can get off the ground. Want to see him continue to develop his vision in the halfcourt as he will likely need to play PG at the next level because of the paint touches that he generates with his speed.     -The skill progression has come along nicely and he is thriving in a bigger role with the VA Playmakers this summer as a skilled CG prospect that can do a little bit of everything for his team. Iyer can shoot the cover off the ball, has really taken strides to improve his handle to navigate tighter gaps in the defense, and has gotten both faster and stronger. Expect him to take a nice jump this summer and earn consistent minutes within the Carroll rotation as a guard that can play both on or off the ball.     -Has a lot of wiggle on the ball as a creative scorer that doesn't need a ball screen to get to his spots. Morris sees the floor and times his crossovers or hard drives well to the rim to get into the teeth of the defense to force rotations. If he can morph into a knockdown perimeter shooter off the ball-- I wouldn't be surprised to see him carve out a role for himself at McNamara.     -Love the fire and energy that brings every time that he touches the floor. Adoko leverages his size well to get underneath his matchup to beat his man to his spots to score--mostly in the paint. The handle has sharpened to allow him to take advantage of above average back foot burst, love watching him play.     -Very skilled guard prospect that can shoot, pass and dribble well. Harris does a great job of feeling out what his team needs from him in a particular game to either score or facilitate at a pretty high level. He has a pretty tight handle that frees up space for him to get off perimeter looks that usually find the bottom of the net.
