Jones has a great frame, full of length and athleticism. He did a good job on defense and showed to be a solid rebounder for his position. Jones’ camp coach Aloysius Henry stated, “Isaiah had a great attitude. He was very vocal on both offense and defense.

#42 5’9” Camaron Womble of Millbrook High School (Raleigh, NC)

Womble is a nice player.

Offensively, he liked to play downhill and displayed some mid-range touch. Faison’s camp coach Aloysius Henry stated,“Kisheem played hard from start to finish. He would cut hard to the basket and had a very good pull up game going left.”Faison is a player that college at the appropriate level should already be taking note of.

#244 6’8” 2017 Jon Bryant of Carmel Christian (Charlotte, NC)
Bryant is a new name to us, however one that quickly turned heads. Bryant has a very strong frame, with good length, and explosion around the rim. He also has touch beyond the arc, making multiple threes throughout the day. Bryant’s camp coach Aloysius Henry stated, “Jon has a solid all-around game. He shot the 3, can post up, and showed back to the basket moves. Jon is also a very good rebounder.” Although Bryant’s is a new name, he is one that should firmly be on D1 recruiting radars. Bryant should make a nice induction to the rankings.
