Expert Analysis
Miles Masercola | Prep Hoops Scout
Coon is a skilled guard in NC’s 2028 class that finds himself as a key piece on this No Guts No Glory 16u UA Rise group with his ability to make shots, be a secondary playmaker, and provide a pest like presence on the defensive end of the floor. Coon was a key player that helped engineer a massive turnaround at Fuquay-Varina HS this past season. He averaged 7.3 Points, 2.3 Assists, and 1.3 Steals per game while only averaging 0.5 turnovers. Coon is a guy that will have big numbers as a primary piece in this high school season but is proving to be a very impactful complimentary piece in the travel ball season. Coon is a guy to keep track of with this group as he leads into what should be a big junior season at Fuquay-Varina.
