Charlotte, NC (Future150) -- Rock Nation topped the Capital City Vipers in the 15U title game as it was a battle against the South Carolinians. Rock Nation saw 2020 CG Kyhree Thompson have a huge weekend filling up the score sheet and playing super tough defense. While the Vipers enjoyed another huge weekend from 2021 CG Tysean Dawson who domianted on both ends of the floor. Check out the other 15U standouts below!

Future150 Main Event Charlotte 15U Honor Roll:
Tysean Dawson, 2021 CG, Capital City Vipers (SC): Dawson is built like a college running back, which allows him to finish through contact against bigger and taller defenders on a consistent basis. His jumper has improved since the last time we saw him, and it's easy to see that he is one of the best 2021 prospects in the southeast at this point.
Max Edwards, 2020 SF, CT Select (CT): Edwards and his squad traveled to Charlotte all the way from Connecticut to compete at Main Event Charlotte, and he didn't waste this oppurtunity at all. At 6'3" he plays most of his time on the wing and uses his freak athleticism and great feel for the game to take over. Don't be surprised if he ends up as one of the top prospects in his state in the class of 2020.
Khyree Thompson, 2020 CG, Rock Nation (SC): Thompson had multiple big performances during bracket play that helped Rock Nation secure the title. He doesn't have the best size at 5'10", but he is stronger than what he looks and brings a certain swagger to the court. Thompson could develop into a sleeper prospect out of South Carolina before it's all said and done.
Trent Ostrander, 2020 CF, NC Flames (NC): Ostrander was highly impressive due to his length, versatility, and efficency. Standing around 6'6", he can score from down low as well as knocking down the mid-range jumper. His three point shot isn't very consistent, but he's capable of putting the ball on the floor from the perimeter and getting to the rim. Very impressive weekend for Ostrander.
Christian Little, 2020 G/F, Carolina Elite (NC): Little was extremely fun to watch throughout the weekend with his extremely high motor, upper body strength, and bully wing skills. Standing around 6'1" he doesn't have the best size to be playing on the wing, but his incredible strength and extremely high motor allowed him to shine against taller and longer prospects.
Canaan Mayfield, 2020 CF, ATL Hoop Starz (GA): One of the most efficient scorers in the 15U division Mayfield is a fundamental combo forward that always makes the right plays. He is a great passer for his position, and showcased his great versatility on both ends of the floor. Keep an eye on the rising sophomore out of Atlanta!
Dontavian Leach, 2020 SG, C.C. Force (SC): Leach is an extremely young prospect at his age, and at 6'2" and growing he has great potential. His three-way scoring abilities, length, and vocal leadership is what stands out the most when watching him play. It's not crazy to think that Leach can be a top-10 prospect from South Carolina in his class when it's all said and done.
Dwayne Davis, 2020 SG, LYNC Impact (NC): Davis is an athletic slashing wing guard that doesn't stop hustling until he hears a whistle blow or a buzzer go off. He has solid size at 6'2", and has great lift on his jumper which allows him to shoot over taller and longer defenders. Solid overall weekend for the Fayetteville product.
Nas Bosket, 2020 SG, OSC Kings (NC): Bosket is a speedy guard that can fill up the score sheet in a hurry. He loves to get out in transition and beat everyone to the basket for an easy lay-in. Once he gets a bit stronger and develops more of an outside jump shot, he could turn into a serious match-up problem.
