Westover HS Senior Forward Traymond Willis-Shaw Traymond Willis-Shaw 6'7" | PF Westover | 2020 State NC : He was a big part of the success of the Westover squad, bringing an interior presence but also a player with height and wingspan that can play on the wing. His agility and athleticism allowed Westover to play him in multiple spots on both ends of the floor.
Freedom Christian Senior Forward Aymeric Toussant: The Skillset and upside is clearly there, he’s had moments throughout the season where he looked like a no-brainer D1 prospect. The next step for him is bringing this consistent dominance on a nightly basis. At times he can be laid back on the court, but when he’s locked in he’s a special player.
Terry Sanford HS Senior Forward/Center Kyron Kelly: Rim Rattler would be the best way to describe his game, if he catches the ball in the paint it’s a dunk with ease. What really makes him an intriguing prospect is that he brings that same energy to the defensive side of the floor, blocking shots at a high rate.
South View HS Senior Aiden Mclaurin: Some local JUCO programs have taken notice of his talent and upside late in the season with a few programs extending offers. As a younger graduate you have to be excited about what he can potentially be, he does a nice of rebounding and blocking shots as well as running the floor.
Fayetteville Christian Senior Forward Jaden Scriven Jaden Scriven 6'6" | SF Fayetteville Christian | 2020 State NC : He’s headed to Davidson CCC so four year programs will want to keep an eye on him. At about 6’5 with nice athleticism and good upper body strength, he looks the part before he even steps on the floor. Also he has the ability to play on the perimeter on both ends of the floor.
