NC Phenom 150 Session 2
Coach K's Standouts
Part 1
No. 77 5'10 '20 Steven Riley Jr. (Ravenscroft School, Raleigh, NC)
Steven Riley thrilled the crowd the entire day. He is a very versatile player. He is able to score in transition and in the half court. Riley showed tremendous range knocking down 3-pointers, midrange, and attacking the rim. We were impressed with his high basketball IQ, tight handles, and speed in the open court.
No. 100 6'0 '21 Stephon Richards (East Mecklenburg, Charlotte, NC)
Stephon Richards was one of the top underclassmen in attendance. The 6'0 shooting guard came out guns blazing. In the first game, he had a camp high 30 points and scored from all three levels. He has all the tools, excellent form, quick release and most of all a shooters mentality. Simply put, he made it look easy. In addition, Stephon has a great feel for the game and does a nice job of distributing the ball when double teamed or the defender close out on him. The lefty has a smooth and fluid game and is definitely one to watch.
No. 110 6'1 '20 Aaron Ross (Northwood High School, Pittsboro, NC)
Aaron Rosee was one of the more exciting players to watch. He was one of the best athletes in camp and the physically mature guard has a chiseled frame. He is an All-Conference player in football, basketball and in track. In addition, Aaron sports an amazing 4.0 GPA to boot. He plays with great pace and also has a good feel for the game, not to mention a strong on-ball defender. Last, he runs the floor well in transition and was constantly beating everyone back on defense to take a charge. If speed kills, this young man should be registered as a deadly weapon. Aaron Rose can go!
