Aaron Medley Aaron Medley 6'2" | PG Laurence Manning | 2022 State SC – Laurence Manning Academy (Manning) – Florence International Basketball (pictured on front)
Medley was very efficient in the opening day game on his way to 18 points. Medley really played a solid game from out top and was able to knockdown shots on the perimeter. Medley made some timely passes in transition that led to easy basket for his teammates. Medley even sacrificed his body today while taking a few charges on the defensive end of the floor.
Lebron Thomas Lebron Thomas 6'2" | CG Trinity Collegiate | 2022 State SC – Trinity Collegiate (Darlington) – Florence International Basketball
Thomas a left-handed guard really sees the floor very well from the guard position. Thomas a downhill attacking guard is very effective going to the basket. Thomas still must keep improving on his perimeter skills for the down road. Thomas really excels in a up-tempo style of play where he can get out and run. Thomas doesn’t get enough credit for his court awareness and ability to get to the foul line at a good clip every game.
Mikah Nelson Mikah Nelson 6'5" | SF Carolina Forest | 2022 State SC – Carolina Forest HS – Confidence Cougars
Nelson needs to stay with a few feet of the basket to manufacture his points. Nelson is best close to the cup and playing the game on activity and put-backs. Mikah has wore a few different uniforms this spring and seems to be playing every weekend on the Grassroots Circuit.
Tre Gasque Tre Gasque 6'3" | PG Andrews | 2022 State NC – New Life Christian Academy (Fayetteville, NC) – Elite Ballers
Gasque (2022) is originally from Andrews, SC but spent part of the season this past year in the Hoop State. Gasque reclassified after he left Andrews HS. Tre is a absolute pogo stick on the floor with some crazy bounce. Gasque has great length and needs to really stay focus and put a whole game together at times. Gasque has the tools to keep developing his game for the next level.
