2028 Breakout Candidates for This Spring/Summer (Part One)

There are a lot of really high quality players in North Carolina's 2028 class scattered all across the state on the verge of breaking out. This summer is such a vital time for the rising juniors across the country with the communication period opening in a few months meaning college coaches can contact them directly. With all of that said, there are some guys in this state that will see their stock rise, let's take a look at this group!    Womack will be playing this spring/summer with [program_tooltip program_id='2227286' first='Team' last='Loaded South'] 3SSB after an incredible season at West Charlotte where he helped lead his team to a State Championship as a sophomore. Womack's ability to make shots from different areas on the floor at his size, attack closeouts with control, and provide a ton of positive impact on the defensive end of the floor provide an incredible foundation for him as a prospect. He's a natural off ball guard but is capable of operating as an initiator or creator. Womack has a game that will translate well to the eyes that evaluate from a college coaches and scouts perspective. Womack's blend of production and potential will shine this spring/summer and his physical gifts will continue to blossom.     Tweedy is a very versatile wing forward with a ton of next level ability that will undoubtedly take a big leap if he can build upon his season at Cary Academy. He'll be playing with [program_tooltip program_id='2375668' first='SW15H' last='Elite'] UA Rise 16u this coming summer and he's shown tremendous growth in his game over the course of this season. The blend of defensive versatility with his ability to score from all three levels offensively at his size make him a very intriguing prospect that could very well vault into the top five of this class when we update the rankings shortly. Tweedy is active on both ends of the floor and as it starts to click in his own mind just how gifted he is, his stock will only soar from there. The UA Rise circuit is a great setting for his game, he's skilled with physical gifts and plays the game completely within himself. There are national services out there with him ranked and I think more will follow soon after they see what he's got this summer.     Beasley is a big time scorer here in the 2028 class and he just enjoyed a really special season at Hibriten where he used that dynamic shot making ability to lead the charge this season. Beasley has already clearly put in a ton of work in the weight room and that has allowed his game to flourish with the ability to play through contact and brush off smaller defenders on his drives. He'll be playing with [program_tooltip program_id='2227286' first='Team' last='Loaded South'] 16u and is on a roster where he can provide a real spark with his scoring ability. Beasley has an array of moves off the bounce to get the necessary separation to hit off the dribble jumpers. Beasley is also more than capable of playing the point when needed, but is at his best when looking to create for himself off the bounce. Beasley is also a really high level rebounder for his size, a trait he'll typically have the upper hand on with his matchup. I think he's an under the radar kid right now that will have a chance to really grab some attention this spring and summer.     Moore is a really athletic and skilled young wing forward who plays the game with a ton of energy and effort at all times. Despite still being raw in some areas and growing into his frame, Moore still brings consistent and undeniable production in multiple facets of the game. Moore can make outside shots but is at his best when attacking the basket where he soars above the rim with consistency. Moore's true calling card is his versatile impact on the defensive end where he is capable of guarding almost any position on the floor and protecting the rim as he averaged almost 3 blocks a game in high school this season while helping Greenfield win an NCISAA 2A State Championship. He'll also be with [program_tooltip program_id='2227286' first='Team' last='Loaded South'] this spring and summer, I fully expect Moore to start getting some more next level attention as he shows coaches what he brings to the table as a prospect.     Dalton is a supremely productive big that played a major part in Forsyth Country Day winning a State Championship this past season. His ability to bruise combined with his outside touch make him a very unique player to watch. He's willing to impose himself physically and show the skillset, making him a tricky young front-court guy to deal with. When Dalton is engaged he can be a dominant rebounder on both backboards, he has a chance to have some big rebounding games on the 3SSB Circuit with [program_tooltip program_id='2078500' first='Garner' last='Road'] this summer. As one of the feature bigs on this team, it perfectly lines up with his progression as a player and will allow him to showcase his game on a really big stage with G Road. As he continues to refine his back to the basket game, get more high level experience, and bring more consistent production, I fully expect Dalton to get some attention this spring and summer from coaches of the next level.
