Florida Prospects Shine Ahead of Nike Peach Jam

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As Nike's Peach Jam tips off today, the EYBL regular season officially concluded with Session 4 in Las Vegas over the weekend. Both of Florida's 17U teams earned bids to this week's prestigious event in North Augusta, SC. Here's a look at several Florida standouts who improved their stock during the first NCAA live recruiting period.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2194891"],"_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-6a565c317edca"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">You could argue that there is not a player in the country that has had a better spring and summer than Daughtry. The South Florida native came to Las Vegas on the heels of a FIBA u17 Championship in Turkey and continued his stellar play averaging nearly 33 points per game for the Florida Rebels. The rising senior is a highly skilled lead guard with an extremely high basketball IQ. He changes speeds very well, can score at any spot on the floor and is an excellent passer. With a strong finish to the summer, Daughtry will be in the conversation to be one of the Top 5 prospects in the 2027 recruiting class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2294409"],"_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-6a565c317ee92"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A Florida native who spent last season with Overtime Elite, Nesmith closed the weekend with a very impressive performance against Team Durant. The recent Vanderbilt commit had 24 points in the game and was able to get into the paint whenever he wanted. He was an efficient finisher and made open shots from the perimeter. Nesmith also showed his ability to be a playmker and play with a high motor as evidenced by his effort on the defensive end and on the glass.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2194483"],"_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-6a565c317ef1a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the country's top prospects in the rising junior class. Harris helped the Florida Rebels secure a top seed at the Peach Jam averaging 14 points and 8.3 rebounds in Las Vegas. He continued to prove his ability to get to the rim and finish through contact but Harris also proved to be a reliable open shot maker from the perimeter over the weekend, which could take him to the next level as a prospect. The St. Petersburg native is a prospect to watch in the 2028 class this week in North Augusta.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3535854"],"_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-6a565c317ef93"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A prospect whose stock has skyrocketed this offseason, Uvwo continued his breakout offseason campaign by averaging 9.3 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 3.0 blocks per game for Nightrydas Elite in Las Vegas. The athletic frontcourt prospect plays with a relentless motor, high level rim protection and has an ability to finish efficiently around the basket. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2294524"],"_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-6a565c317f011"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">On a very talented Florida Rebels team, Westbrook can be overlooked at times but the rising junior stood out on Thursday against the Utah Prospects with 13 points and three made shots from beyond the arc. He is a three level scorer with good quickness and an outstanding feel for the game. With a couple good performance at the Peach Jam this week, you can expect for his recruitment to rise.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
