From Florida to North Carolina, On The Radar spans the southeast this weekend with The Atlanta Classic, The Florida Opening, and The North Carolina Opening. 

Between the three events, there’s talent ranging all levels. From future draft picks to stockrisers to players on the verge of breaking out. 

Colleges—for which recruiting calendar guidelines don’t exist—have stopped by as well. 

Saturday was packed. Here are some names our staff saw throughout the day:

Atlanta 

AJ Williams - Georgia Stars - 2028

“Elite on both ends. Dominated stretches of the game. Rebounds well in and out of the paint. Scores at will from all 3 levels, handles the ball well, can create for himself and teammates. ” - Cam Ross

Carmello Williams - Georgia Canes OTR - 2027 

Williams uber athletic, any chance he gets he is playing above the rim. Going through the lane or in transition. Williams is a defensive dawg and can get down hill and draw fouls for himself to get easy buckets.” - Zocko Littleton

Deuce Grayson - Jet Academy - 2030

“Deuce Grayson is an elite scoring, playmaking guard. He can play both on and off the ball. Deuce is great at using change of pace, a strong handle, and ability to see the floor and create for others. Definitely one of the top scorers in his class.” - Q Green

Kyree Taylor - EYA OTR

“Dominance continues to be on display as he’s avg upwards of 20ppg through 2 contests. Electric guard that can score on 3 levels and gets his guys involved. Just lead his team to a 50pt win.” - Jaron Pierre-Mathurine

Rodney Jackson - Mamba South - 2027

“Rodney Jackson is a prospect worth tracking for Mamba South. Jackson did damage inside and in transition ran the floor and finished at the opposite end. Does well in the half court set.” - Jennifer Brazelton

The Villages 

Cory McPherson - Sunshine Elite OTR - 2027

“​​McPherson is a quick and athletic guard who can get to his spots off the catch as well as off the bounce scoring on all three levels. On the defensive end, he was pestering whether it was guarding on the ball or in the passing lanes. His two-way presence speaks a lot of volumes that will open a lot of eyes for college coaches as the spring rolls on.” - Ross Van De Griek

Greensboro

CP Perry - Dub Salem - 2027

“‘27 CP Perry of Dub Salem scorched the nets all day. Unlimited range. Excellent off ball cutter. Knocked down shots on the move & off the catch. Also showcased some improved downhill driving where he finished through traffic multiple times. Underrated passer as well.” - Lonte Smith

Donovan Swain - Team Gold Coast OTR - 2027

“6’4 2027 Donovan Swain (Team Gold Coast OTR) put on a scoring clinic against CP3, finishing with 22 points. He scored from all 3 levels, knocked down 4 threes, played above the rim, and showed the ability to create his own shot.” - Miguel Ribeiro

Roman Ruggiero - Upward Stars Upstate - 2028 

“Roman Ruggiero just exploded for 26 points including 4 makes from behind the arc. Dude can flat out play. Scoring it with ease and playing his tail off he put his team in a position to win all night long.” - Davis McCarn
