Jonathan Barron Jonathan Barron 5'11" | PG Northwood-Lena | 2023 State LA (2023, CG, Cenla Dynasty, Northwood, LA)
Barron was an impressive 2 way player over the course of the event. He showed that he can get hot from behind the arc and has a passion for pressuring the ball.
Deontae Bush (2023, SG, Circle City Shooters, Phalen, IN)
Bush has a nice combination of skill set and athleticism. He showed a nose for the bucket and a fearlessness on the offensive end. Bush looks like a scorer at heart that searches for his openings.
Jordan Matthews Jordan Matthews 6'0" | PG Vandebilt Catholic | 2025 State LA (2025, PG, G4WYW, Vandebilt Catholic, LA)
Matthews and D’Ron McZeal was one of the more impressive backcourts I saw over the course of the event. Matthews dynamic play was a big reason for his squads 3-1 record.
Simon Nielsen (2023, PG, Miami Sports Academy 17u, Cypress Bay, FL)
Nielsen showed out at the event, hitting 14 triples over the weekend with 6 coming on Friday alone. In a win over Minnesota Fury 17u, he scored 22 points and didn’t have a single turnover.
Steven Rogers Steven Rogers 6'7" | C Decatur Central | 2023 State IN (2023, PF, Indiana Red Storm 17u, Decatur, IN)
Rogers really turned some heads at Prep Hoops Live. He proved to be a multi level scorer that can create some very real mismatches for his team’s opponent. Rogers has strong hands around the rim and uses his length on D.
Tamir Runinkevich Tamir Runinkevich 6'2" | SG Berkley | 2023 State MI (2023, SG, Top 1 Performance Basketball 2023, Berkley, MI)
Runinkevich is severley under ranked. He’s been an elite shooter and scorer throughout grassroots season and was a key component to Top 1’s 4-0 record at Prep Hoops Live ATL. Runinkevich’s weekend was highlighted by a 28 point performance in a win over Full Package Select.
Hosie Witt IV (2023, CG, 904 Elite, San Jose Prep, FL)
Witt IV has some really nice upside as a player and a prospect. He showed that he could attack off the perimeter and be a force offensively. His weekend was highlighted by a 20 point performance.
