Expert Analysis
Tre Cordon | Prep Hoops Scout
In a game that went down to overtime, Cherry was the guy who stepped up in the fourth quarter and took matters into his own hands in the scoring column. He scored nine of his 13 points in the fourth quarter and overtime attack at the rim and got to the line on multiple occasions. Already a solid playmaker and distributor at the one spot. The new guard looks to help New Bern to a solid playoff run in the near future.

Cherry was a scrappy guard who worked well in spurts getting the ball to the painted area and getting others involved. He’s got potential out of the 252 area with his ability at the guard spot to knock down shots and finish in traffic. I was impressed with his ability to drive the ball and keep it tight in order to limit turnovers and increase paint touches, a must for his team to be able to score it easily. A name to get to know out of West Craven High.
