'22 Yannis Woods (Jonesboro HS)

Additional Camp Standouts (Wings & Forwards):

​The camp roster had numerous high quality Wing and Forward prospects who are future College players. In addition to the standouts mentioned earlier in this series, here are some additional Wings and Bigs who impressed. Yannis Woods (6’ 7, Forward, Jonesboro; 2022) is a long and athletic forward with great upside. He had Coaches and scouts highlighting his name as he was dominant defensive force in his opening game, blocking 7 shots and absolutely controlling the defensive boards. His activity on the defensive end was contagious as his camp team ran away with the win. Offensively, he was a handful on the offensive glass, converting several put backs while also finishing several nice post moves in the paint. He gets up and down the floor really well for his size in transition and has the rise to finish well above the rim. He has a tremendous amount of natural tools and talent to work with and our evaluation staff unanimously feels that, with continued progression and development, he has a chance to be a really good player at the College level. Quinton Partee (6’ 3, Wing/Forward, Roswell; 2022) doesn’t have the classic size of typical post; however, if you value production, you are going to be a fan of his game. The strongly built forward plays with maximum effort, is a monster on the boards, and a physical scorer in the paint. He doesn’t back down from taller opponents but goes right at them. As effective as his inside play is, he also showed a consistent outside shot which stretches out to the three-point line. All in all, he has the makeup of a physical hybrid type 3/4 at the small college level who will bring winning intangibles to the table. Rett VanDeMark (6’ 8, Forward, HALO Wolfpack; 2022) is an under the radar home schooled prospect who plays in the small school GAPPS Association. While he didn’t come into camp with the name recognition as some of the other prospects in attendance, he made a good impression with his play and caught the eye of several schools. He was one of the better rebounders in camp and covered a lot of ground on the defensive end of the floor. He did a good job as a rim protector, and multiple evaluators commented on his willingness to battle in the paint. He is a capable scorer on the block and has solid touch on his mid range jumper. Zion Powers (6’ 4, Wing, Woodville Tompkins; 2022) made the most of his trip up to ATL from Savannah, as he put his scoring abilities and defensive versatility on display. At 6’4, he has a nice inside-out feel to his game and was effective slashing to the rim and knocking down the outside shot. He is above average rebounder from the wing position, can guard multiple positions and showed good on-court leadership. An All-Region performer as a Junior, we are expecting a big Senior season for him at Woodville-Tompkins. Inigo Ibanez (6' 7, Forward, Furtah Prep; 2022) is an active and lengthy forward who was a shot eraser throughout the day. Inigo was easily one of the top shot blockers in attendance. Offensively, he has very agile feet for his size and solid moves on the block. Isn't afraid of contact of goes strong to the basket. Multiple coaches commented on his work ethic and attention to detail in the morning skill stations. Will be a major piece for Furtah Prep program that is always in the hunt for State Title in GISA.  

Cameron Bleshoy (6' 4, Wing, Pope, 2022) was playing on his home court during the camp and exhibited many of the same winning traits that have been a major part of Pope High's success the past two seasons. The two sport star (also starting WR/DB on football team) is a good athlete who averaged 12 ppg and 8 rpg last season in a Region loaded with high level talent. He is a constant presence on the boards, finishes well at the rim, and is a versatile defender capable of matching up with quick guards and larger posts. Physical player who is always around the ball. Does alot of the little things that aren't glamorous, but are key ingredients for winning programs. Ben Hodges (6’ 3, Wing, Alcovy; 2023) is a player who received very positive reviews from multiple evaluators. The athletic wing plays with a big-time motor and was making plays all over the floor.  He did a really nice slashing to the rim and is a strong finisher at the rim. He runs the floor hard on the break and is an excellent rebounder from the wing position. Definite player to watch in Georgia’s Class of 2023. Ryan Bellomy (6’ 8, Forward, Harrison; 2023) is an emerging Class of 2023 big man out of Cobb County. Has a long wingspan and sturdy frame that will continue to fill out. Solid footwork and was effective scorer when asserting himself on the low block. Provided good rim protection with his length. Has the ability step out beyond the arc and consistently knock down the three-ball. While he is far from a finished project, he has some really nice potential. His best basketball is ahead of him. Lamar Haynes (6’ 3, Wing, Clarke Central; 2022) would be named a starter on our “All-Energy” team. The inside-out threat from Athens really got after it on defense and proved to be a versatile scoring threat from all three levels. He plays bigger than his size and was a force on the boards. Expect him to fill the stat sheet across the board for Clarke Central this season. Luke Rogers (6’ 7, Forward, Pickens; 2022) received some well-deserved attention from several Colleges in attendance and it is easy to see why. He is a prospect who does a great job playing to his strengths. He was an active defensive presence in the paint, blocking/contesting shots, and boxing out for rebounds. He plays with good hustle and encouraging to teammates. He had several nice finishes around the rim where he powered thru heavy contact to score. The All-Region player is primed for a big Senior season, look for his recruitment to continue to trend upward. Justin McCarter (6' 4, Wing, Osborne; 2023) is a sleeper talent with excellent upside. Long wingspan and solid athlete, he excelled at attacking the rim for buckets and setting up teammates with several nice assists off penetration. He brings great versatility as a defender and is an active presence on the ball and in the passing lanes. Part of a loaded and talent rich Osborne squad that is expected to have a big season, expect to hear alot more about Justin in the coming year.    

'22 Shawn Walker (Walnut Grove)

Shawn Walker (6' 5, Wing, Walnut Grove; 2022) is an intriguing prospect whose recruitment we expect to take off sooner rather than later. Has good size at the wing spot and solid perimeter skill set. Is at his best when attacking the rim, where he did a great job using his length and athleticism to finish. Dangerous in transition. Versatile defender who can guard multiple positions. Will team up with fellow standout DeMyron Williams as a tough 1-2 punch for Walnut Grove this year. Christian Torres (6’ 5, Forward, East Hall; 2022) is an athletic forward who made a strong impact for his team. What first jumps out at you is how hard he plays on both ends of the floor; he has a good knack for the ball and is a relentless presence on the boards. Was a problem for opponents on the offensive glass. He did a great job scoring the ball inside the paint and has good scoring touch around the rim. Runs the floor hard in transition. Look for him to be a nightly double-double machine for East Hall this coming season. Ethan McIntyre (6' 5, Forward; 2022) is a workhorse player who is effective on the interior. He demonstrated good physicality and aggressiveness in the paint and works hard to stake out position for scoring opportunities. Has some solid bounce and is capable of throwing down dunks in traffic. High academic prospect with 96 GPA. Look for him to take on a featured role for Cass squad that graduated a big chunk of talent. Jha'Quez Wright (6' 4, Wing, Wilson Academy) is a small school product, but he more than held his own against some of the state's top regarded players. He is an active and athletic wing with solid frame. He is a good slasher, knows how to finish, and defends at a high level. Player worthy of next level evaluation. Ryon Reed (6' 4, Wing, Southeast Bulloch; 2023) is a talented up-and-coming 2023 prospect from Southeast Georgia. He can handle the ball and does a good job creating his shot, getting to the rim with ease. He has a nice mid-range jumper and finished in traffic. On defense, he put good pressure on ball handlers and moves his feet well. Carries a 3.7 GPA in classroom. Look for a breakout season for this young man.
