Other Top Performers from the Global Elite Exposure Camp

The Global Elite Exposure Camp took place over the weekend, as some of the top middle school talent in Mississippi and the Southeast converged in Jackson, Mississippi for the camp’s 11th edition year.

HoopSeen.com was on hand to catch an early sneak peek at the next young crop of talent that will hit the high school level in the next few years. We already highlighted our top five players from the camp, but here are some more guys that impressed throughout the event:

Caleb Gaston, 2022 PF, Booneville (MS): Gaston, a versatile, 6-foot-4 forward, received plenty of attention each time he stepped on the floor. Right now, he’s a little rough around the edges with his skill-set, but the Booneville, Mississippi native has a chance. Gaston does a little bit of everything on the floor, from rebounding and defending to picking up trash baskets around the goal.

Omarion Walker, 2022 SG, Jackson (MS): Walker went down with an injury on the second day of camp, but on Saturday, the long wing was an instant playmaker on the floor. The 6-foot-1 guard was one of the best slashers in attendance, too. Instead of looking to score each time, Walker distinguished himself as a willing passer, as he landed a number of easy assists to teammates.

Malicah Evans, 2023 C, Bastrop (LA): Standing at 6-foot-6, there wasn’t a more impressive looking 7th grader in attendance than Evans. He’s very raw and uncoordinated right now, but wow! This kid has all the potential in the world. With his size and length, Evans has the ability to be a defensive anchor for teams. He moves well and blocks shots, causing havoc at the rim. If he can develop a reliable set of hands and some strength, Evans will be a force to be reckoned with.

Robert Johnson, 2022 SG, Olive Branch (MS): There weren’t many players that had a better knack for scoring than Robert Johnson. The 6-foot guard had no problem putting the ball in the hole, as he constantly attacked the rim and found his shot. Whether it was around defenders or through them, the Olive Branch product showcased his finishing ability. With his toughness and grit, he’s a player that coaches will love to have on their teams

Zyonn Mayes, 2022 SG, Corinth (MS): This kid was an instant favorite because of his motor and intensity. Mayes is a well-rounded player that doesn’t necessarily excel in one specific skill, but boy does he produce on both ends of the floor. He was great on defense, making things difficult for opposing guards. Mayes exudes toughness and made his mark with his grind-it-out type of play.  

Erin Jones, 2022 CG, Richland (MS): Jones didn’t receive a lot of the hype that some of the other guards in attendance did, but the floor general did a masterful job of letting his play do the talking. A cerebral guard with a smooth game, Jones was able to assume point guard duties for his team. He handled the ball well and didn’t allow the defense to affect his game. Instead, he controlled the tempo and made good decisions each time down the floor.

Josh Dukes, 2022 SG, Booneville (MS): Throughout drills and stations, Dukes distanced himself as one of the best shooters in camp. It took some time during games for his shot to start falling, but when he got hot, things came in bunches for the 8th grader. At 6-foot-2, Dukes has good size that allows him to shoot over defenses. He excelled in catch-and-shoot opportunities and defenses had to be aware of where he was each time down the floor.

Tremaine Dixon, 2022 PG, Jackson (MS): Dixon was another shooter that performed well. The 5-foot-6 guard hit several shots from behind the arc and was a headache for defenses. Dixon picked and chose his spots efficiently, leading to quality opportunities for he and his teammates. He also did a nice job of playing within himself and not allowing the camp atmosphere to rush him.
