Team Loaded CVA U17
6'9 Sal Diop – has a incredible wing span. He does a good job of rebounding and blocking shots in the paint. Like him in pick and roll situations as he does a good job of sealing his man and finishing at the rim. He displayed some nice moves and good foot work when he hit a nice turn around fade away jumper. Did a great job running the floor getting out in transition and catching some nice feeds for dunks. Can wait to see how good he will be once he added some needed weight to his frame.
Team Loaded NC U16
Michael Caprise 6'6 High IQ guy that's very fundamentally sound. Just seems to get a lot of things done on the floor. He is one of those players that every coach needs to hold the team together. He's the glue guy that doesn't do a lot of talk let’s his work speak for him. And his work was stamped all over this game as he continued to makes winning plays for his team. So many things stick out about him. He understand spacing and moving without the basketball. When the shot goes up he does a good job of positioning himself on the box out. He is a skilled passer and makes good outlet passes that start fast breaks. He dropped a nice dime in the game when he made a nice bounce through a defender to a teammate for huge dunk.
Shaq Moore 6'0 – Shaq is a special athlete that excels in the open floor. He is a human highlight film ready to happen once he gets loose. He is very skilled at getting to the basket and making plays for his teammates. Scouts are starting to notice his improvement on his jump shot. He is also a great defender. He does a great job of keeping his opponent in front of him. On the offensive boards he able to use his athleticism to get rebounds over taller players. Like the way he is developing and putting it all together. He is rounding hisself to be a big time college prospect.
Jamari Harvey 6'5 – length wing that can score the basketball on all three levels. Jamari got to the game late with his team down about 12 points. But was able to immediately give his team some instant offense hitting three straight three-pointers to get them back in the game. He is a very skilled offensive talent that did a really good job of putting the ball on the floor once defenders started respecting his job shot. He’s definitely a instant offense kind of player once he heats up!
Overcomers Elite U17 North Carolina
Demecio Adams 6'0 this point guard did a very good job of getting to the basket anytime he wanted. It was really hard for Combine guards to keep him in front of them. He has a great handle and a very explosive first step. His speed allows him to excel in transition. What I like about him is that he is able to use either hand equally to get to the basket. When the help defender finally started stepping over he was able to dump the ball to players on the block for easy finishes. Demecio does a great job of running his team and getting players in the right spot. Finished the game with 19 points.
Combine Academy U17
Bradley West 6'6 this kid already has a college ready body. He was able to do what he wanted versus the Overcomers because they didn't have a player with his size and strength. He does a great job of running the floor and finishing around the basket. He's a force on the offensive boards as he was able to make a living there all night. Also did a great job of commanding the high post and making good passes to open teammates.

Jyyson Slade 6'1 Very intriguing prospect he did a great job of getting out in the open floor to score some easy baskets in transition. He is very bouncy as he was able to finish a thunderous two-hand slam-dunk that recent a lot of cheers from the crowd. His athleticism allowed him to rebound and get his hands on a lot of loose balls. He has a nice touch from behind the arc. Watching him play you can tell he has a lot of tools. Would like to see him be more aggressive at getting to the hoop and scoring the basketball.
