#34 Stone Stogner 6’0 wing Hartfield Academy 2027
Stone is a knockdown shooter who can space the floor. I was also impressed with Stone’s effort; he played hard even though he didn’t get a lot of touches. Even though he was one of the younger players in the combine he didn’t play scared. I believe he could be a nice contributor to the Hartfield Hawks this upcoming season. He just needs to continue to work on his skillset, especially his ballhandling and foot speed. Needs to work on his communication skills.
#40 Kristian Pounds 5’11 Combo Oak Grove 2027
Pounds is a combo guard who has played in my past Talkin Hoops in DA SIP Showcase. Even though he didn’t get a whole of touches that he is used too, when playing in his own age group, he showed that he is going to be a good player for many years to come. He can get downhill and finish at the rim and he can knock down the open trey ball. I would like to see finish on the left side of the basket like he does the right side of the basket. Needs to work on his communication skills.

Brown is a strong combo guard who is built like a running back. I believe he will play some positive minutes this year for Murrah’s varsity team this year.

He also needs to work on his speed and quickness as well as his overall skillset. Needs to work on his communication skills.

He needs to continue to work on his overall skillset. Needs to work on his communication skills.
#5 Tyler Lyles 6’3 Wing Jackson Academy 2026
Lyles is an athletic linebacker who plays basketball, and he can play. I told him the way he moves on the basketball floor shows me that one day he could be playing on Sundays.

Banks is another kid who has some “Ooh Wee” some “Yah Yah” in his game. He has a chance to do some special things for Lanier this year. He is easily one of the guards in his class. He is hard to guard 1 on 1, it’s not too many people who can stay in front of him. He is fast, quick, and got some ups and can knock down the trey ball. He is also a willingly defender.

Class of 2024/25 Scouting Report
#23 Triston Jenkins 5’9 Combo Pearl 2024
A solid combo who played hard and gave good effort. Decent ballhandler with a decent shot. Jenkins could have been a lil more assertive and aggressive, but I know it can be tough sometime in a combine situation where everyone is trying to get theirs. Jenkins should be good contributor to his HS team this year. He needs to continue to work on his speed and quickness as well as his overall skillset. Needs to work on his communication skills.
#46 Severe McNeary 6’0 Combo Hillcrest 2024
Severe is combo guard who can flat out shoot it. He should average around 12-18 pts a game for Hillcrest. He has some toughness about himself, as he hurt his ankle and fought through and continued to play hard. He really is more comfortable at the off-guard position, but he can play the PG if u need him to. He is a guy for me who must be on the floor because of his ability to knock down the open shot. No question a top ten shooter in DA SIP. Needs to develop a killer attitude and his defense needs to match his shooting ability. Needs to work on his communication skills. He will be a nice shooter for someone at the next level.
#31 Dyllen Buckner 6’4 Wing Raymond 2024
Long strong athletic wing who has decent perimeter skills who can knock the open shot. Can hit the wide open 3. Buckner has a trait that I like he is not afraid to shoot the ball especially when he is open and even if he is off he believes that he is on and tbh I like that. He should be a piece of that Raymond dynasty who has been to the last 7 or 8 finals. Buckner needs to continue to refine his overall skillset. Needs to work on his communication skills. He can be a nice big wing at the next level.
#36 Shaun Murray 6’3 Wing Harrison Central 2025
Murray is a long athletic wing who was arguably the best and most impressive player at the combine. Murray showed that he can score on all 3 levels. He can put it on the floor, he finish above the rim and he has a nice pullup. For me he is an easy top ten player in his class in DA SIP. To me Murray plays defense in spurts. If he decides to take as much pride in his defense as he does in his offense, he could be the best 2-way defender in DA SIP. Needs to work on his communication skills. No brainer low -mid major D1 prospect.
#13 Tayshun McCray 5’11 Combo Laurel 2025
Tayshun aka Mr Ooh Wee” I call him the that because he had some serious hesi, and wiggle action going on. This was my first time really watching him play and he was very impressive to me. His handles were legit, as he got downhill, and he finished at the rim. He has a good midrange game. I didn’t see him really shoot the trey ball, but I liked everything else that I saw. He is also a legit defender. He needs to be on all colleges radar. I love him!! Needs to work on his communication skills.
