Shyheim Hicks - 6'2 G/F - 2017 - Brockton, MA - CBC - Shyheim Hicks raised eyebrows all afternoon with his combination of speed, size, athleticism, skill-set, intensity, smooth body-movement and understanding of the game.  Shyheim attacked the basket from the wing at aggressive angles throughout the afternoon, scoring the ball consistently in the half-court and going on a shopping-spree in transition.  Wo knows what will happen in terms of how he develops physically, but there is no question that… READ MORE >

Tyonne Malone - 6'4 G/F - 2016 - Rivals - Long, highly-athletic, 6'4 southpaw who slashes to the basket from the wing or short-corner and looks to attack the rim.  Yesterday, he had three or four lefty pull-back tomahawk dunks which sent the MPLEX into a frenzy.  Tyonne also has a nice shooting stroke, can handle the ball, and possesses a Stacey Augmon defensive tool-box.  Sky's the limit for this guy in terms of potential....Although he may play some 8th… READ MORE >
