from the Carolina Bracket Champions, North Augusta. He came out on fire in the Championship Game, putting up 12 Points in the first quarter. Dunbar excelled at knocking down jump shots, both in the mid-range and behind the arc. Although he cooled off a little bit in the second half, Daron still made one of the plays of the tournament with a nasty posterizing dunk through a foul, which he converted into a three-point play with the ensuing free throw line. Dunbar finished with 21 Points in the win.

continues the list of the top 8 Seniors in Class 4A. He is the first of 3 players in this group who play in 4A Region 4. North Augusta High School is one of the toughest places to play in the Lower State and Dunbar has been “the guy” for the Yellow Jackets since the start of his Junior Year. Daron holds a physical frame that is ready to play at the next level and he uses that to impact the game on both ends of the floor. Dunbar has a good pull-up game in the mid-range, finishes through contact at the rim, sees the floor well, and has active feet and hands on defense. Dunbar committed to Augusta on September 30th.

Dunbar is another high-level prospect from South Carolina’s 2025 Class who stood out on Friday. Daron showed some dominant flashes in both halves of a comfortable win over Legacy Early College, going for 20 Points and 10 Rebounds. It felt like he was extra determined to make a statement in the Yellow Jackets’ first game of the summer and he grabbed the rebound on almost all of his own missed shots early in the game. Dunbar has a college-ready body and has a tremendous all-around game. He was a handful for his defender possession after possession, using his strength and athleticism to get two feet in the paint with plans of scoring every time.

His weekend includes a 21-point game against Team Swish, where he had several clutch baskets to help seal the win. While he is a capable shooter from behind the arc, he used his strength advantage in set plays to score around the basket.

Dunbar scored the ball from all 3 levels here today for the new Stars Gold 17U program. Daron has a very good mid-range game, and it showed today. He was able to stalk the baseline for some buckets in return.
Daron brings a competitive edge to the floor at all times with his play. Dunbar has no problems playing on the ball as a defender.
