<!-- /wp:heading -->

<p>Gatling is an emerging name to get to know in North Carolina's 2027 class out of Southwest Guilford High.

He's got a bright future ahead of him, especially defensively.</p>

<p>Allen makes another appearance among top returners, this time with steals, as he checks in in at tie for third place among NCHSAA 4A returners. He averaged 2.6 steals per contest this past season while leading the Wildcats to an appearance in this year's state championship game. His aggression on defense is another quality to keep an eye on as he heads into his senior year. </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">1) [player_tooltip player_id='2289353' first='Isaiah' last='Green'] | 6'1 Guard | Knightdale High</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Green returns as the top name to know in the NCHSAA 4A ranks out of Knightdale High. He's a top defender to know given his prowess for stealing the basketball as he returns after producing 4.1 steals per game. His ability to turn defense into offense will be something to keep an eye on as he heads into his senior season. His 3-point shot has much improved this spring/summer.</p>
