His ability to score the ball is evident, regardless of whoever he plays against, he shows that he can get to his spots and score the ball without much of an issue at all.
Team Loaded Wing Truman Claytor has transformed his body and it’s led to some outstanding production on the floor. He looked comfortable on the wing scoring the ball at a solid rate and attacking the paint to make positive plays for his team. He’s the type of player that can grab the rebound, take the ball the length of the court and score or make a play for a teammate.
Team Loaded Wing Jakwon Moore Jakwon Moore 6'5" | SF New Life Christian | 2023 State NC plays the game with toughness, strength and an edge to him that makes it seem like he has something to prove each time he steps on the court. We would have to classify him as a slasher at this point, as he seems to have the most success on the court when he puts his head down and simply attacks the basket. His perimeter game has continued to improve on both ends of the floor and he’s strong enough to be able to defend numerous positions without much of an issue.
Team Synergy Guard Evan Morton is a downhill Guard that forces defenses to recover quickly. He is constantly on the attack looking for opportunities to make a play and was big time for his team in their matchup with Loaded, scoring a game high of 22 Points.
Team United Guard Jakel Powell Jakel Powell 6'5" | SF Raleigh Christian Academy | 2024 NC put together one of his best performances in the Championship game against the Houston Defenders, taking home MVP honors after going for 20 Points. The 6’5 Shooting Guard has a smooth shooting stroke that was on display all game long, not only did he knock down the outside shot with efficiency but he attacked the paint when the opportunity presented itself.
CSB Elite Wing Woodrow Jackson Woodrow Jackson 6'3" | SF T Wingate Andrews | 2023 State NC was one of the top performers in the 16U Blue division, averaging an impressive 23 Points per contest and helping his team to be competitive in every matchup they had. He was productive out of the high post, knocking down the midrange shot but not settling for the jumper too often and attacking the paint for buckets at a high rate.
York County Legends 2023 Guard Grayson Kirk was outstanding for his team from start to finish of the event, he made plays in just about every way you could imagine on both ends of the floor. His defense forced turnovers which led to easy transition buckets, but he was more than comfortable scoring the ball in the half-court, knocking down shots from midrange and deep while also slashing to the basket to score.
