Leonard will be the #1 player in the 2027 Palmetto State Rankings when they debut in Mid-March. Josh is extremely skilled and really can do it all at times on the court. He can handle the rock up the floor, take the ball in transition and get to the cup. Leonard will rebound the ball on both ends of the court and really plays the game extremely aggressive for his age.
Josh plays big minutes for the Tigers at the Class 4A level. He finished with 16 points and 10 rebounds today in a win over Lancaster HS.
Fowler plays the game with a lot of savvy for his young age. Colt plays the game fearless at times just like his old brother Will. He took charges it seemed like on command at times. Colt really likes to get by defenders using the old school bounce pass.
Fowler finished at the cup on both sides when he wasn’t dropping a floater into the bucket. Colt finished with 12 points and 5 rebounds in a win over Keenan HS.
Warning do not leave open on the floor especially from behind the three-point line. Eli really shoots the ball with a great looking stroke and a good deal of confidence for the Gamecocks. Britt scored 14 points in a win over Hilton Head Christian.
Eli really liked to set up shop out in the corners for open looks at the basket. He always looked to be shot ready to receive the ball in the pocket.
Highlights
Harrington and the Cardinals struggled here today in a loss to South Florence. Desmond came off the bench and provided a handful of buckets and rebounds. Harrington has really defined his body in the past year and will get better for the Cardinals moving forward.
Desmond showed a nice jump-hook around the cup when he wasn’t posting up.
Anderson and his Yellow Jackets took the loss today here in the MLK Bash. The left-handed Anderson finished with 8 rebounds in the game. Jeremy has shown flashes at times for the Yellow Jackets where he could be that next good one to come out of the Irmo HS program.
Anderson looks to be part of the future plans here of the Yellow Jackets.
