Columbus, MS (Future150) -- Guard Terryonte Thomas, at 6'4", has ideal size for a point guard and has had an impressive AAU season so far.
Recruiting
"I have offers from Xavier, Southern Mississippi, Tulane but interest from Memphis, Oklahoma State, Mississippi State and Mississippi," Thomas said.
Thomas competed during one of the LIVE periods in April, but still needs exposure to reign in the offers his game deserves.
Being able to score on all three levels and a great rebounder for his position. He is tenacious with the ball, going to the rim any chance he has which results in him living in the free throw line.
He uses his length well on defense and has solid foot speed to contain smaller quicker guards. He does need to work on his jumpshot as his form needs to be more consistent but his speed and finishing abilities have made up for his weaknesses on offense.
"I need to keep working on my jumpshot, and my defense needs improvement because I don't slide my feet all the time on the help side," Thomas said.
One memorable moment this season Thomas had was dunking on his cousin .
"Most memorable moment from the season was when I was playing against my hometown and soared through the air to dunk on my cousin," Thomas said. "The dunk was awesome but it was my favorite moment because it was on my cousin."
Having had an invitation to try for the USA 16u team, Thomas just wants to keep building his name up as the summer continues.
"I'm just going to keep working and not worry about all that right now. As long as I try to play at a high level, schools will offer."
