Read EvaluationHenry Etier | Prep Hoops Scout
The 6′ 2025 Stony Point point guard showed some signs of what may be to come for next season as all eyes will be on Stony Point to start the season. He was effective both games running the offense like a pro but he really got to it with 19 points and some nice dimes against Beaumont United on Friday night. He can score in a variety of ways, high percentage shooter and tough going to the rim as well. Defensively he was one of the best guards in the state this year and he continued that last weekend with constant on ball pressure and forced turnovers. Uzziah could be in for a breakout season next year with Stony Point’s leading scorer headed to Villanova, make sure he’s on your radar this summer and heading into fall.

Read EvaluationMatthew Champion | Prep Hoops Scout
Buntyn has a lethal crossover and he’s dangerous from behind the arc. He’s incredibly quick and will keep his opponent on their toes for the entirety of the game. He can get into the lane in an instant and pull up for a high-percentage jumper or blow right past his defender for an easy bucket at the rim. He’s a lightning quick passer with excellent court vision and he makes the game easier for his teammates. He’s not afraid to bang bodies in the paint and he’s an excellent all-around player that does not let up. He’s the first to dive on the floor for loose balls and don’t try to pass cross-court on him because he’ll suddenly morph into an all-pro CB and intercept that to take it to the house on the other end before you even know what happened.
