Love is a name to know at 3A contender Southern Guilford as a wing/forward who is flying extremely under the radar. Only armed with an offer from D3 power Guilford, the forward is looking like he’ll have all the makings of a great college player with a high workrate on the glass on both ends, and an ability to finish through contact and defenders in order to get to the rim. Should be an impact pickup at a D2 or D3 in the area.

Love is more of an imposing presence in the painted area for Southern Guilford High but another underrated name in the 2024 class to get to know given his abilities as a rebounder and shot-blocking presence. He’s producing 17.2 PPG, 8.3 RPG and 1.5 BPG for the Storm’s frontcourt as an unsigned senior forward. He’s got nice length at 6-foot-5 he utilizes well to alter shots and make his presence felt as an attacker and rebounder in the painted area. They’re 5-0 in the Mid-State Conference as they look to repeat as regular-season champions and make a deep run in this year’s state playoffs. He’s a name for DII and DIII programs to get eyes on over the next few months.

Last Season Stats – N/A

Love is a real high flyer that attacks the rim with power on offense consistently each game. He’s got great vertical pop to be able to either drive the basket or just catch and dunk the ball off two feet. Also a good cutter who has great feel for when to back cut and burn to the basket to find a lob or bounce pass from his point guard. Defensively is a good rim protector and interior presence that keeps opposing players from attacking the rim effectively.

He’s got the ability to handle the ball and knock down shots at the wing position and has the versatility to guard multiple roles on the floor.
