National Ranking: 138   Harris had a nice summer on the EYBL circuit playing with a pair of top 10 nationally ranked recruits. Despite having national scouts at many of his games, Harris hasn't found himself in other national rankings lists. Harris looks like an immediate contributor at the college level due to his shot-making at his size and potential defensive impact. I caught Harris best game at Peach Jam against PSA Cardinals and that game showed exactly what I'd hope to see at the college level from Harris. Expect Harris to pick from a handful of impressive west coast offers that he holds.     National Ranking: 140   Fuentes was one of the most productive players on the MHC, Fuentes is a winning point guard who recently posted his final eight of UCF, Wake Forest, College of Charleston, FIU, Manhattan, Stetson, Yale and UCSB. A wide range of schools from a variety of leagues and covering almost every corner of the country, where Fuentes ends up could lead him down a variety of paths. Fuentes pace, ability to play in the pick and roll as well as his competitiveness are key ways Fuentes will look to impact the game at the next level.     National Ranking: 144   McLaughlin committed to in-state power Washington State as the Bothell lead guard. McLaughlin was one of the top performers on the RL circuit this summer and earned offers from powerhouse programs across the country, including Toledo and Cal State Fullerton before picking the in-state Cougars. With a quick release on his jumper and the burst to create for himself off the dribble, McLaughlin will look to have a similar impact to Ace Glass in Pullman as he immediately was one of the best guards on the west coast at the college level.     National Ranking: 146   Williams had an excellent summer on the PRO16 circuit, being named to the second team all circuit team as well as being named the shooter of the year on the circuit. Williams was also a finalist for breakout player of the year and clutch player of the year. Safe to say, Williams caught a lot of eyeballs on the PRO16 Circuit. His ability to knock down shots off the catch, play winning basketball on both ends of the court and efficiency makes him appealing to mid-major college programs with UTRGV and Eastern Michigan being the latest schools to offers Williams.     National Ranking: 147   Fason Jr exploded onto the scene during Peach Jam with an all-time performance in a win over the eventual champion Florida Rebels as Fason Jr scored 41 points in the thriller. Fason Jr earned a handful of offers off that game alone, heading into Peach Jam weekend without an offer and exiting with almost 10 offers. Fason Jr also averaged almost five assists a game down in North Augusta, showing his ability to set the table for his teammates as well. I'd be surprised if Fason Jr doesn't get added to some other national rankings list by the time his senior year ends.     National Ranking: 149   The MVP of the NxtPro circuit, Merto also helped his team win the NxtPro championship and earned recent offers to Colorado State, Lamar and UC Davis. Merto can play above the rim when attacking downhill, has good positional size for a primary ball handler but is also capable of knocking down shots off the catch as an off-ball wing. Merto's versatility is one of his main calling cards. Merto also holds a 4.1 GPA according to his twitter bio, which could make him attractive to high academic programs as well.
