Austen Colton2023 5-10 PG Austen Colton – East Coweta
Automatic Austen Colton. It felt like every time Colton let a shot fly it found the bottom of the net. A bit undersized, Colton has made sure to pack on muscle to negate any lack of height. He’s a physically strong guard that never loses his center of gravity. Austen has been a prolific scorer during the travel season for years and parlayed that play into averaging 10.9 points per game as a junior. Now the primary scoring option his senior season, expect Colton to nearly double his scoring average, especially if he shoots like how he did on Saturday. He has an effortless three-point stroke that stretches out the defense. While his scoring catches most spectators’ eyes, don’t sleep on Austen’s court vision. He’s a very good passer that puts great zip on his assists. Colton will be a major point producer this upcoming season as both a scorer and facilitator. Pound-for-pound, he’s one of the better offensive players in the state.

Jaheim Crayton2023 5-11 PG Jaheim Crayton – Fideles Christian
I was very impressed with how Jaheim Crayton played on Saturday. A regular at showcase camps, Crayton is a veteran that now knows how to stand out in a crowd. The talented scorer got his points but looked improved as a playmaker, making smart decisions when attacking defenses. Crayton did a nice job turning corners and getting into the teeth of the defense where he would kick out to open shooters in the corners. When Jaheim wasn’t stopped, he was able to finish at the rim and mixed in a sharp pull-up jumper with three-point range.

Jayden Bone2025 6-1 G Jayden Bone – ELCA
It was a positive first impression put forth by Jayden Bone, a sophomore who will make his GHSA debut this season at ELCA after playing at New Creation Christian. Bone is a wiry guard that excels in transition. He made good reads as a passer and always made sure his team came away with points in advantageous situations. Bone scored from the mid-range and at the rim. What really stood out was Jayden’s motor and ability to impact games on both ends of the floor. He’s a quick defender and a willing rebounder from the guard spot.

Jamil Aleem2024 6-5 W Jamil Aleem – New Faith Christian
The bounciest player in camp, Jamil Aleem used his athleticism to get what he wanted on offense. Aleem uses a long, quick first step that covers a ton of ground when getting to the rim. From there, he is able to elevate and finish over any shot blocking presences. Jamil holds upside defensively, able to defend 1-4 with her lateral quickness, length and leaping ability. A key for Aleem is his outside shot. He showed the ability to score off the dribble with a pull-up and kept defenses honest with his three-point shot. Aleem has major tools to work with and has a bright future at the next level.

Khamren Little2023 6-4 G Khamren Little – Mary Persons
Another one of the most athletic players in attendance, Kham Little was tough to stop when he got a head of steam. Little has good size, both height and weight and uses it to his advantage when barreling down the floor. Kham loves to get to the rim where he finishes easily with slams. He finishes through contact consistently. Little is a strong rebounder and a constant threat to go coast-to-coast.

Malachi Jackson2024 5-10 PG Malachi Jackson – Houston County
Malachi Jackson caught my eye with his shiftiness. He’s a quick guard that creates separation with the dribble. He does a good job beating his first defender and also has three-point range, putting the defense in a difficult bind as to choose which to stop. I liked his motor.

Jakari Byrd2025 6-4 F Jakari Byrd – Colquitt County
Byrd is an interesting long-term prospect. He’s a big burly forward that can bang in the paint, but also is light on his feet and possesses guard skills, able to push in transition. The southpaw is a mismatch on offense and a hustler on defense that will chase down blocks from behind and battle for rebounds.

Malik Gillespie2026 6-0 G Malik Gillespie – Houston County
A highly touted incoming freshman out of Middle Georgia, Malik Gillespie played with poise and confidence on Saturday. He looked comfortable getting to his pull-up jumper and really made a difference on the offensive glass, crashing in for tip-ins.

Miciah Hammond2023 6-3 G Miciah Hammond – New Creation Christian
The big guard showed savvy court awareness on offense. Hammond was able to beat his man baseline consistently and loved to suck in the defense before hitting open shooters in the corner. His size and strength allowed him to penetrate the defense deep.

Quentin Hardnett2023 6-0 G Quentin Hardnett – Southwest-Macon
Hardnett served as a perimeter scorer on Saturday. The lefty has a smooth lift when getting into his jump shot. Hardnett shot with confidence and was effective as an on-ball defender.

Allen Suber2023 6-1 G Allen Suber – Union Grove
Allen is a major hustler. He has a knack for filling up the box score. Suber has good length which he uses to rebound in traffic. Allen likes to get putbacks and can catch lobs behind the defense when they are napping. Suber’s defensive effort can be contagious, searching to jump lazy passes and altering shots at the rim.

Ryan Williams2024 5-10 PG Ryan Williams – North Paulding
It’s always refreshing to watch a true point guard in a camp setting. Williams played within himself and was able to standout without having to be a volume shooter. Ryan is a smooth ball handler and crafty playmaker. He manipulates defenses as he surveys the floor to find the open man. Ryan is a skilled scorer with advanced footwork. He’s an up-and-coming stock riser in the 2024 class.
