What Has Been Said:

“While it is clear that Dunn is the best player on the team, it is Moore who makes everything go. The first thing that stands out about Moore’s game is his incredible on ball defense. He has quick feet, active hands, and great anticipation. Moore also showed a smooth stroke and the ability to make plays for his team mates. We are eager to see more of him.” — Jamie Shaw

“Moore is what makes the team go. He will guard the ball for 94 feet and just create all kinds of disruption for opposing teams. He has the makings off a good jump shot and attacks the rim with his head up. He makes winning plays, and is a typical Kinston type point guard (oh yeah, and he is Top 15 in his class academically). Very impressive kid.” — Jamie Shaw

“Taji is a natural born leader. He’s incredibly self aware and plays to his strengths (passing, defense) and enjoys getting others involved. He always makes the right play which is what makes him so valuable to a team. His work ethic is great and always wants to get better. He is in the top 10% of his class as well. Colleges need to be on him now!” — Carolina Wolves NC
