6’8 ’27 Dylan Twitty (Christ School)
After announcing his decision to transfer to Christ School and reclassify, one would’ve thought Twitty’s recruitment would’ve already taken a major leap. Regardless, he’ll be a key piece for arguably the top program in North Carolina. Twitty is an elite rebounder whose physicality, nonstop motor, and nose for the ball make him a clear asset. He excels at doing the dirty work while controlling the glass, making plays defensively, and taking advantage of scoring chances as needed. Twitty displays nice mobility and explosiveness around the basket. Given his extremely reliable, low-maintenance identity, Twitty should become a priority for coaches over these next few months.
6’3 ’26 Marty Giant (Greensboro Day)
Although the other guys are juniors, it’s actually quite perplexing to try and figure out why Giant is being so overlooked by college coaches. He’s a versatile athlete with an excellent combination of length, toughness, and two-way ability. Giant is capable of operating in several different roles offensively. He knows how to initiate the offense, move without the ball, and score within the flow of the action. Giant is a quality finisher who plays above the rim and fights through contact. He’s a terrific rebounder and switchable defender across multiple positions. Giant is a highly adaptable piece who seems to elevate every team he plays for.
6’0 ’27 Preston Scott (Queens Grant)
Though his teammates might receive more attention, Scott is definitely a guy more college coaches should be pursuing. He’s an incredibly tough, heady guard with phenomenal quickness and the ability to find success in various types of roles. Scott is more than capable of dictating the offensive action as the primary creator. He utilizes his tight handle and blindingly quick first step to break down opponents and touch the paint whenever he desires. Scott makes smart decisions with the ball and scores as needed. In addition to his quality penetration and playmaking, he’s a phenomenal defender. Scott sits down and suffocates opposing ball-handlers as well as anyone in the state. He’s simply a difference-maker.
