Atlanta, GA (Future150) -- Saturday action at the Future150 Main Event Atlanta had each of the five courts buzzing all day long. Here are the next wave of prospects who caught our attention...
Darique Hampton, 2017 PG, Charleston Playmakers:
The team Hampton plays for makes perfect since for him as a player: he is a playmaker, no doubt about it! He is very smooth with his game, but the youngster excels at getting in the lane and finishing with contact. He has good size for his position, and as he gets older, it looks like he will become a very nice prospect. Hampton makes things look easy, and we don’t see anything stopping him from continuing to do so. Basketball is like a sixth sense for him.
Preston Horne, 2017 PF, Georgia Stars:
The 6'5" power forward uses his gigantic hands and long arms to be an elite rebounder on both ends of the floor. He scores everything around the rim, using both hands. He also uses his athleticism and explosivesness to dunk as many baskets as possible in the paint. In the next few years, he projects to be a very high profile recruit.
Vincent Cole, 2017 SF, Charleston Playmakers:
The 6'3" small forward is an extremely athletic wing who can become a big time prospect. He showed a glimpse of that on consecutive plays on Saturday in a game where he forced back-to-back turnovers and finished both plays at the rim with thunderous dunks. He naturally plays with a laid back attitude, but when he is dialed in, he is hard to stop.
Damiere Brown, 2017 PF, ELW Future Stars:
The bruising 6'2" power forward has a soft touch around the rim and finishes well at the basket using his big frame. He rebounds the ball well and creates a nice niche for himself when running the break as a trailer. For a bigger prospect at 180 pounds, he runs the floor very well and passes well from the low post.
