Cannon continued to showcase his all around game with Team CP3 15u EYBL as he helped guide his team to a 4-0 weekend. Cannon averaged 9.0 Points, 6.3 Rebounds, and 1.5 Assists per game on 38/38/58 shooting splits for session one. Cannon’s length, athleticism, and outside touch are the calling cards in his game at this point and continues to progress in his off the bounce game in the half-court. To be as well rounded as he is with the physical gifts he possesses at this stage are really impressive and worth noting as he’s a prospect to watch closely moving forward. Cannon’s work with Ben L Smith as a freshman and early returns from EYBL session one with CP3 are certainly a sign of things to come.

Cannon had a really strong weekend with his Team CP3 15u EYBL group at The Phenom Hoops Grassroots TOC in Rock Hill this past weekend. Cannon helped lead his team to an unblemished weekend and shined in the process with his blend of positional size + ability to make plays on full display. Cannon is a really high level athlete at the wing for a rising sophomore. Cannon is a very aggressive downhill driver and finisher at the rim. He attacks closeouts with real purpose as he looks to finish above the rim when given the opportunity. Cannon is a capable outside shooter, and even showed the ability to play out of ball screens this high school season. There’s no doubt that he’s a player to monitor closely as the travel season gets into full swing mode here soon.

Cannon is a dynamic prospect in NC’s 2029 class that will be running with Team CP3 EYBL 15u this spring/summer amongst some of the other top 2029s in the state/region. After a really strong freshman season on a deep Ben L Smith team, Cannon is ready to take that experience and apply it towards impact with CP3 this season. As a freshman at Ben L Smith he found himself in some really big games and did more than just hold his own. His blend of size, outside touch, and aggressive athleticism give him an incredible basketball foundation to work from. It’s also really refreshing to see a player at the stage Nicholas is at with his skillset and tell that he truly loves to play the game. It feels like he can’t stay away from it, even when he’s not playing, he’s in attendance at other games. When a kid with this talent is obsessed with it, the results will more than likely be really strong.
