Fraley missed half of the season but is back now and making an impact for the Maroons. Carson reminds me of Isaiah Briscoe with the way he can bully guards to the rim and will knock down shots when left open.

Carson has missed most of the season until getting back on the court for the last two Pulaski games. As he gets back up to 100% and back to his old self, it will be interesting to see how high he can lift Pulaski County in the race for the 12th region title.

Fraley is not a glamorous player. He plays bully ball and beats up smaller guards on his way to big time scoring and creating opportunities for teammates. But winning is very glamorous and Carson is a flat out winner. Always making winning plays for his team.

Carson is the most physical player on this list and is capable of bullying anyone on his way to the rim. Fraley is strong and capable of getting downhill and finishing at the rim or kicking to open teammates for clean looks. He’s also a good three point shooter who is going to be a top player in the 12th region the next few years.

Fraley was ultra aggressive offensively against Mercer County which is great news for their post season future as he dropped in 27 points. He let his defense fuel his offense getting out in passing lanes and playing a ton in transition. Made a 3 off the catch, but was at his best at the rim. Huge game for him.

One freshman who has absolutely no problem dealing with physicality already, Carson is capable of bullying opposing guards and finishing at the rim. Fraley is a good enough shooter to keep defenses honest but his bread and butter is putting his head down and getting into the paint. Carson has Pulaski off to an awesome start and looking like the favorite to win the 12th region.
