2022 Best of the South 15U Standouts, part II
ATLANTA—In keeping with our breakdown of some of the best of the Best of the South, the HoopSeen staff has assembled more favorites and standouts from the 15U division. For more on 15U’s best be sure to check out the first installment of our look into the division via the link below.
Dann is one of the prospects I left the weekend having been most intrigued by. At 6-foot-10, probably pushing 6-foot-11, he doesn’t look like a 15-year-old who’s relatively new to basketball. He’s incredibly long and uses his frame well as a rim protector. That’s probably a no-brainer if you watch him operate. What I was most impressed by was how well he moves and gets up and down the court. He’s fluid and even grabbed a rebound and went coast-to-coast on a fastbreak. For someone that young, and that big, it was an impressive feat to see. He still has plenty of development to go, but he has all of the makings of the stereotypical Big 10 center which is appropriate because Michigan stopped by to watch Monarchs Elite. - Josh Tec
If someone in the 15-and-under division shot it as well as Proctor, I would like to see them have a shootout. Proctor made shots from beyond the three-point line all week long. A lot of them. His high was nine, finishing with 27 points against Greater Purpose. Proctor finished the tournament on Sunday making 6 of 7 from beyond the arc against BCB in a win. He has good size at the guard spot and can score from all spots on the floor. - Justin Byerly
6-foot-2 ‘25 guard Korvontae Hatter was an absolute nightmare for opposing teams at Best of the South. He played with great energy and kept his foot on the gas throughout the weekend. Offensively Hatter was very aggressive attacking the basket and his shot was quite consistent around the perimeter. He was definitely one of my favorite young players to watch. - D’Courtland C
Without question, Coy was the leader of his 2025 squad for the entire weekend. Regardless of age group, I’d venture to say that he was one of the most aggressive hoopers I saw all event. For four days, Coy did an exceptional job of dribbling low to the ground, snaking his way through tough defenses, and finish through traffic with ease. I personally watched him lead a 26-point comeback & sank three to give them a lead in the final seconds. He finished with 25 points in that game. Coy will be a name to keep an eye on for the rest of his high school career. - Jerome Reed
I thought he was one of the best players in the 15U division because of his relentless attack, elite speed and ability to take over a game. We’ve seen guards come out of the All Ohio program (see Marquette’s Sean Jones). Spiva has some juice to him that is hard to not see right away. When Spiva got into the paint, he knew what to do and how to do it. The constant pressure he put on defenses was hard to contend with. He helped pilot his team to a championship and was consistently tough throughout the week in Atlanta. - Justin Young
