POB’s Best of the Best: SC Top 80
2027 6’6 Josh Leonard (Wilson) Coming into yet another Top 80 down in South Carolina, 2027 Josh Leonard proved once again why he is the top prospect in the state overall and nationally ranked by so many. The true blend of size, physicality, skillset, understanding, and feel for the game is quite impressive but he has been showing that consistently over the years. And what makes him scarier...

POB’s Eye Catchers from SC Top 80 (Class of 2025)
2025 Cedric Schofield (Keenan): Schofield had a very good overall showing at the SC Top 80, and I believe a showing like this when you watch the film should help him garner more attention. The 6’8 athletic forward was active all throughout, running the floor in transition, showing his bounce and ability to finish at the rim, but also show a nice well-rounded balance in his overall skill set. He...
