North Florida Stock Watch: Prospects Making an Early Impact

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2299658' first='Marvin' last='Christie'] | G | 2026 | Providence School | @_m4rv</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Christie is a 6-3 combo guard who continues to show growth as a scorer and decision-maker. Recently committed to Jacksonville State (Ala.), he scores in a variety of ways — attacking the rim, pulling up in the midrange, and stepping into open threes. He plays with confidence but stays under control, and his ability to score in stretches while still involving teammates has pushed his stock up quickly this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1633109' first='Tekelvin' last='Jackson'] | CG | 2026 | North Marion | @TekelvinJackson</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jackson plays with confidence and energy, getting more comfortable as the event went on. He's effective coming off screens, attacking closeouts, and creating clean looks for his jumper. Once he finds a rhythm, he becomes tough to stay in front of. Should keep his name moving in the right direction.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2445638' first='Denoris' last='Young'] | G | 2026 | San Jose Prep | @Denor1s</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Young stands out with his quick first step and ability to create off the bounce. He can beat defenders with speed, get into the midrange, and make plays when defenses collapse. When locked in, he does a solid job setting up teammates and competes defensively. His combination of pace and shot creation gives him clear value in the backcourt.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2800180' first='Gabe' last='Parks'] | CG | 2026 | Chiles | @GabrielParks26</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Parks is a dependable combo guard who has earned a reputation as a confident perimeter shooter. His offseason work is showing, particularly in his consistency and shot preparation. He plays with good control, understands his role, and brings leadership to the backcourt. A steady presence who helps keep Chiles organized on both ends.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Logan White | F | 2026 | Weeki Wachee | @Logan_White14</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>At 6-5, White offers a strong mix of scoring feel, spacing, and passing ability. He can stretch the floor, read defenses, and step up when his team needs offense, highlighted by a 40-point outing last season. His size and skill set give him versatility as a forward who can impact the game without needing constant touches.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Calvin Thomas | F | Rickards | @cthomas__4</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Thomas brings physicality and effort every night. An athletic wing/forward who can guard multiple positions, he plays through contact and looks to make plays in the paint. His toughness and willingness to defend and rebound give him real value, especially in physical matchups.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2211182' first='Dylan' last='Larsen'] | G | 2026 | First Coast Christian | @Dylan_Larsen_26</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Larsen is one of the more confident shooters in North Florida. He's shown the ability to score both off the catch and off the dribble, including a recent 31-point performance on efficient shooting. He handles the ball well, plays with good pace, and has solid length for the guard spot. Defenses have to account for him at all times.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Justus Clements | G | 2026 | Eagles View | @Justis2026_PG</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Clements is an under-the-radar scorer with good size at 6-2. He's comfortable scoring at all three levels, knocking down threes, pulling up in the midrange, and creating his own look when needed. His smooth offensive game and shot-making ability make him a reliable option heading into his junior year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1633120' first='Javion' last='Davis'] | PG | Andrew Jackson | @Jv_Daviss</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Davis is a true point guard who plays with pace and control. He can knock down open threes, operate in the midrange, and rebounds well for his size. What stands out most is his defensive mindset — he takes pride in guarding the ball and setting the tone. A floor general who values running the team the right way.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
