is coming off a huge offseason where he sent shockwaves through AAU circuits and fall leagues.

Up from No. 79: Lincoln Memorial signed the high-octane two-guard after he emerged over the summer as a stock riser. Boyd is a talented slasher that can score in isolation settings, getting his shoulders past defenders and able to finish through contact.

‘s stock has been rising throughout the past couple months and I don’t expect it to stop anytime soon. The 2-guard out of Hiram can score from all over the floor and has a consistent pull-up jumper. This summer, Boyd’s athleticism opened a lot eyes as he began playing above the rim a lot more, frequently throwing down dunks in traffic or pinning layups against the glass. Boyd committed to Lincoln Memorial last week.

had another fantastic week at the RYZE Fall League, stroking it from 3 and scoring at all three levels. While Hiram has been playing without their bigs, Boyd has stepped into the interior and held it down. Despite being a natural 2-guard, Boyd has been working the high post effectively and defending the post well. He did a great job on Thursday guarding

The senior guard will likely play a key leadership role for Hiram this year and has done so effectively during their time together in June and the fall. He’s a team first guy that will do whatever it takes and can go out and get a bucket when he needs too. This week, he was even working out of the high post and guarding opposing bigs down low.
