Hicks is proving to be one of the top Juniors in the Raleigh area as he’s helped lead Wakefield to a 14-7 record on the season thus far. Hicks has been undeniably productive this season as he’s averaging 19.3 Points, 7.7 Rebounds, 1.3 Assists, 1.1 Steals, and 0.7 Blocks per game. He’s doing all of that on 44/34/72 splits with a super high volume from three as he’s shooting almost seven attempts per game from beyond the arc. Hicks is a threat to score it from all over the floor, is capable of creating offense both inside and out. He can abuse smaller guards or exploit slower bigs and he possesses a great understanding of how to attack the defense depending on what is presented to him. His skillset has taken a stark improvement in recent months and it’s directly translating to production. Hicks should finish strong at Wakefield this season and start to build some recruiting momentum this spring/summer.
