Heading across the river after scoring over 1,000 points in three years at Thrive Charter (NJ), Gore made a smooth transition into the PCL as a consistent double-figure scorer for a Ryan team coming off a first round playoff victory. The lanky guard fit in seamlessly with his versatile two-way ability. He was able to play both on and off the ball with a natural knack for scoring from a variety of spots on the floor and growing comfort in his ability to make reads as a playmaker for others. Gore brings a toughness and intensity to the floor game with a consistent willingness to do the little things in order to help his team. Scholarship-level programs looking for a plug-and-play utility piece would be wise to give him a hard look.

Supporting Hughes with a workmanlike effort on the perimeter, Gore contributed 11 points in a well-rounded outing. The unsigned senior guard and Thrive Charter (NJ) transfer displayed his versatility in the backcourt, showing he could both initiate offense or fill in gaps off-ball as a secondary scorer. He moved the ball well within the offense while also establishing himself as a dangerous shooter off the catch and remaining active as a rebounder from the backcourt. Gore may not have a single standout trait, but his ability to check a lot of boxes with positional size and athletic tools should place him on scholarship radars heading toward the spring.

Gore provided a spark for Ryan with double digit scoring figures in a loss to SSSAS (VA). His length allows him to cover a ton ground and come up with rebounds and steals. Gore can also be a threat from behind the arc where he converted a three from. I like how he was able to seek out contact going to the bucket and spent some time at the foul line.

Gore has been one of the more consistent 2026 guards in Central Jersey over the past several years, amassing over 1,100 points at Thrive Charter (formerly Trenton Catholic) as a valued starter since his freshman year. The fluid, lanky scoring guard will try his hand over the bridge in his senior year, bringing a much-needed influx of scoring to the Ryan backcourt. He’s a smooth operator while creating his own shot off the bounce, whether initiating offense or attacking second sides. His ability to knock down shots from the perimeter and function for stretches as a lead guard will be key to track for D1 coaches monitoring his development over the course of the winter.

A long and wiry scoring guard, Gore has been among the more impactful scorers in Mercer County since his freshman year, racking up over 1,000 points already at Thrive Charter (NJ) and the former Trenton Catholic. A naturally dynamic scorer trying to transition into more of a lead guard role, Gore shows a polished skill level off the bounce to either side with smooth pace hunting spots for midrange pullups or muscling his way tough finishes. While not quite an advanced passer or facilitator, he’s a capable simple ball-mover and pick-and-roll playmaker. A safe bet to earn recruitment at the scholarship level, Gore could place himself on D1 radars with continued growth as a lead guard and more consistent 3pt range as a shooter.

Gore has risen up the ranks at Thrive Charter (formerly Trenton Catholic) as the leader of a strong 2026 core that’s factored into the varsity rotation since freshman year. He’ll look to cement his legacy and recruiting stock with a standout senior season as one of the more talented guards in the southern half of the state. A wiry natural scorer, Gore has transitioned into more of a lead guard showing skill and pace attacking off the bounce to either side. He shows a willingness to keep the ball moving and an ability to make some reads in pick-and-roll. Still more of a midrange artist than a 3-point marksman, Gore extending his range range and starting to fill out in his frame could boost his stock up into the D1 realm.

Gore is a tall and lengthy player at the point guard position which allows him to take advantage of many smaller guards that usually look to guard him. He is very shifty with the basketball as he can get by some tough defenders to finish at the rim. Gore gets a good lift on his jump shot paired with his high release point and tall frame making it difficult to contest his shot. He makes good decisions when looking to pass the ball and can run pick-n-rolls nicely.
