2028 Group 2 Point Guard Prospects to Track

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>August is coming to a close, meaning the new academic school year is coming up. The 2028 class is primed to make its mark on the hardwood this season, especially in the back court. Here are the 2028 Group 2 point guard prospects to track this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2782185"],"_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-6a8f5fd588099"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Blackmon was a massive part of the Bulldogs' success last season as he helped lead them to a Group 1 title. The 5'9 guard is a blur in the open floor as he uses his quickness to blow by defenders and can finish through contact. Blackmon can also score in the mid-range and has the ability to shoot either off the catch or bounce. He is a solid passer and uses his quick hands to get deflections on the defensive end. Blackmon is a shifty lead guard prospect who should make plays at both ends of the floor throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2785142"],"_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-6a8f5fd5880fb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Marsh has the ability to play on and off the ball, making him an intriguing prospect to track in the class. He has a good first step, which he uses to get into the lane and knows how to finish around the rim. Marsh is more than just a slasher as he has a nice release on his jumper and sets his feet before he shoots. He finds his open teammates in the half court and slides his feet on the defensive end. Marsh's ability to run the offense efficiently is something that will help his stock throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2763616"],"_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-6a8f5fd588147"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Paramore transferred into Shabazz from Payne Tech this summer and is looking to make an immediate impact in the back court. The 5'9 guard uses his handle to get to his spot on the floor and is unafraid of drawing contact around the rim. Paramore threads passes to his open teammates in the half court and can knock down open jumpers in the half court. He pushes the pace well in transition and works hard on the defensive end. Paramore is a gritty guard prospect who is looking to help Shabazz repeat as state champions.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2786680"],"_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-6a8f5fd58818e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Williams poured in over 400 points during his sophomore season and is looking to have an even bigger junior season. The 5'8 guard has a good handle, which he uses to blow by his defender off the bounce and can finish through contact. Williams can also score in the mid-range and makes opponents pay for giving him space behind the arc. He is an underrated passer and gets deflections on the defensive end. Williams can put up points in bunches, which will help Hillside make some noise during the winter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2890420"],"_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-6a8f5fd5881de"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Harper has the potential to breakout this season as he should have more looks in the half court. The 6'0 guard has a high release on his jumper as he wastes little motion and sets his feet before he shoots. Harper is more than just a shooter as he can also get to the rim off the bounce and moves well without the ball in his hands. He jumps passing lanes on defense and can find his open teammates in the half court. Harper had some big games towards the end of the 2025-26 season for the Eagles and is looking to carry that momentum over into 2026-27.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
