One of the more athletic big men in the gym over the weekend, Blair is a prospect that could see a rise in his recruitment over the next few weeks. He has good mobility, plays with a high motor and is an effective lob threat. Blair is also an productive rebounder and shot blocker who is capable of stepping out and making an open jump shot from the perimeter.

Blair had coaches buzzing along the sidelines, as he just kept on doing things that impressed and played with a motor and unselfishness that was refreshing. He’s a powerhouse-looking athlete, has a glide that is sneaky, and when he went to the well offensively, we saw the jump-hook game, the short finishes around the cup, plenty of power, and plenty of will. Coach Tarrik Mabon has done great things at First since leaving Georgia, and this was a team loaded with athletic guards as well, very balanced around Blair, who, as a centerpiece that requires extra attention, opens things up for others.

A patient rim-protecting big man who reads the offense well and times his cuts, seals, and crashes perfectly. He’s a physical, high-frame presence who communicates effectively on defense, anchors the backline, and protects the rim at a high level. Aggressive on the glass, quick off the floor, and a true glue guy who hustles on every play without quitting.

Blair is a rapidly improving frontcourt prospect with high level size and athleticism for his position. He plays with a relentless motor, rebounds at a high rate, and has the ability to grab and go to start the break. He shows a good feel for the game, can impact the paint defensively with his shot altering ability, and continues to develop his offensive skill set. With his physical tools and upward trajectory, he is a prospect to monitor closely.

One of the fastest-rising prospects in the state, Blair is a mobile, high-level athlete for his size who plays with great energy and effort. He rebounds well and can initiate the break, showcasing his versatility and feel for the game. His offensive skill set continues to improve, adding to his overall impact. Blair should gain significant exposure this offseason with SOH Elite on the Under Armour circuit, where he will have the opportunity to further elevate his stock.

Blair imposed his will inside. The 6’10 forward played with force, attacking defenders at the rim and finishing through contact. Blair’s motor never dipped, and his physical approach paid off with a dominant Day 2 performance where he poured in 27 points almost entirely in the paint.
