He showed off his athleticism and good timing on blocks to make some solid chase-down blocks by the end of the tournament for Rising Pros BSC. He's an emerging name to get to know in the 2027 class after averaging 20.3 PPG.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"Khyree McAlister","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"6'9u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"77243","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Elevation Prep","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"EA Prep New Balance","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"McAlister turned heads with his size and ability to alter shots around the rim and beyond. He wasn't afraid to meet opponents at the rim and deny shots as he led the EA Prep New Balance frontcourt. He's an unsigned senior prospect with room to grow over the next few years given his size and frame. He put up 10.1 PPG, 6.8 RPG and 1.5 BPG at Elevation Prep Academy in 2023-24. Sandhills CC has extended him an offer so far.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"Larenz Stevenson","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"6'7u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"77245","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"AL Brown","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"Bigger Than Basketball National","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Stevenson was a force to be reckoned with on the shot-blocking front with Bigger Than Basketball National on the weekend. He's a 6-foot-7 prospect who knows how to utilize all of his length to alter shots defensively and around the rim. He was masterful in anchoring the BTB frontcourt all weekend long with his shot-blocking abilities. He's a name to get to know out of AL Brown in the Charlotte Metro area.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1889492"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Hines was another force to be reckoned with in the painted area for Strictly Ballas Elite NXT. He's a two-way presence who's shown he can finish with authority around the rim and alters shots time and time again with his athleticism defensively. He's a prospect at 6-foot-9 for college programs to get eyes on given his prowess on both ends of the floor. He finished third in scoring average as well with 19.0 PPG in the 17U Slam Division.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["2343347"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Miller was another impressive forward prospect out of Big Shots Elite Tri-Cities who stood out with his efforts above the rim in the 16U Slam Division.
