He is as true a Point Guard as you will find in South Carolina's rising sophomore class. Reiser is an excellent passer who raises the level of his teammates whenever he's on the floor. He simply sees passes that most other guards his age don't, plus he can make a defense pay for gambling or sagging off with his scoring ability. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2935549"],"_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-6a19b76c61c2c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Checking in right behind Reiser at #61 is Thomas. Jaden is one of two Lugoff-Elgin Blue Demons in the Prep Hoops South Carolina Class of 2029 Rankings, and they should be excited about the future of that group. Despite his age, Thomas has a good feel for when to catch and shoot or when to attack a closeout, plus he's developing the ability to make his teammates better. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2894967"],"_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-6a19b76c61c56"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Carlos is a 2029 Point Guard who I've had on my radar since this time last year, but I got to see him in person again this spring with Upward Stars Pee Dee. Parker Jr. is an active defender, can punish defenses that leave him open from three, looks to play off two feet in attack mode, and is a scrappy finisher in the paint. Look for him to see an increased role with the Bruins in the winter. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2919832"],"_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-6a19b76c61c7a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">When talking to SCISA people, it's clear that Rylan is one of the top rising sophomores to know. The 5'10" guard averaged 8.4 points per game at Williamsburg Academy in 2025-26, and he's already putting together some strong performances with Upward Pee Dee this spring. Berry is a capable perimeter shooter, but will only add more to his offensive game as he gets older. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3644842"],"_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-6a19b76c61c9e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Myles leads off a run on forwards at the bottom of the rankings. He caught my eye recently at the Phenom Hoops Rock Hill Live, using his big frame to punish smaller bigs in the 15U division. When he's active, Priester is a handful on both ends of the floor with rebounding, rim-protection, and finishing through contact. Keep an eye on him and a talented young Lugoff-Elgin group. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3644832"],"_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-6a19b76c61cbf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top two-sport athletes to know in the Prep Hoops SC 2029 Rankings is Glymph. He has tons of potential on the football field as a Quarterback at Newberry High School, but he brings some much-needed physicality to the basketball court as well. Sincere rebounds, finishes through contact, and can guard taller players because of his big frame. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2896388"],"_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-6a19b76c61ce2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mackey is another Power Forward to know in the 70s. He's been on our radar since the Prep Hoops Freshman Showcase last September, but now, after seeing him a few times with Palmetto Pride, he makes his debut in the rankings. Despite only being listed at 6'2", Jackson is shy from battling with his back to the basket in the paint, plus he is skilled enough to face up with jumpers from the mid-range and behind the arc. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3583796"],"_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-6a19b76c61d04"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rounding out the new additions to the Prep Hoops South Carolina Class of 2029 Rankings is Damarcus Brockington. Brockington is an under-the-radar player of Hemingway High School and Team SPE, but he is productive in almost every game he plays. Damarcus brings a high motor, desire to defend, and interior scoring whenever he steps on the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
