Lindsey wasted no time announcing his presence on Saturday morning, where he scored 23 loud points to open up the event for Hawks Elite Gold. Lindsey is a big wing that can handle the ball and get to the basket. He is really good at passing out of the high post. The 6-6 Central Hinds (MS) prospect can also step out and shoot the three. Look for his recruitment to have a big incline over the summer. - Jeff Roberts
Take a silky smooth jump shot, a tight handle, and contagious confidence, and you have JaDyn Lee. Whether he's pulling from NBA range, or slashing through the defense for a layup, Lee demonstrates genuine scoring ability from all three levels. With ease he finds his spots, rising up over most guard defenders to sink the shot. Additionally, his athleticism translates well on defense, jumping passing lanes and harassing opposing players. This 6-1 guard out of Tennessee promises to be one of the premier scorers to watch this season. - Jack Daigle
Albright put his team on his back during the 17U Black Championship Game scoring 24 points. The 6-1 guard out of Chatham Central (NC) calmly sank seven out of nine free throws during the big game. He stepped back and knocked one three down during the contest. Albright also scored around contact when he weaved his way in the lane. He also connected on several jumpers for the North Carolina-based squad. Albright is a fantastic dribble, pass, shoot threat when on the floor. - Jeff Roberts
Holloway wasted no time impressing on Friday night at Bama Jam and it continued throughout the weekend. The lengthy, 6-foot-5 forward was one of the most intriguing prospects in the gym, as he showcased his ball skills and shooting ability while being a primary ball-handler for his team. Holloway was comfortable with the ball in his hands and there’s a lot to like about where his game is going. This won’t be the last time you see him on a top performer list this travel season. - Garrett Tucker
There were several college programs in attendance to see Scott this weekend and the junior didn’t disappoint with his play. The hard-nosed, blue-collar wing has a nice mixture of physical intangibles and skill that make him an intriguing option at the next level. The 6-foot-6 wing can guard multiple positions on the floor, whether it’s smaller guards or heavier post prospects. Scott did a quality job stretching the defense with his shooting ability and even made some big plays at the rim, including an impressive dunk over a defender in one game. - Garrett Tucker
