Below is Part
3 of our recap of the D Rich TV Camp
that was held in Akron, Ohio this past weekend. As we previously stated, we
were only there for half a day so we were unable to see many of the other
standout performers for the event. Any discussion about elite level guards has
to include John Mobley Jr. (5’0”/PG/2024/Columbus,
OH). Mobley is widely recognized as one of the best players in the nation in
his class, and his play on Saturday was consistent with the hype. Because of his elite skill level, Mobley is
offensively gifted; however, on Saturday, he was more of a playmaker and showed
excellent court vision and passing ability.
We also really liked Amire
Robinson (6’0”/WF/2023/Naperville, IL), who’s a fierce competitor.
Robinson’s toughness and will to win was on full display when he led his team
to a big win over an Elijah Fisher led team.
Robinson has great size and strength for his age and used both gifts to
bully his way to the basket with regularity.
We saw some
good things from Jaden Langley-Thomas
(5’11”/PG/2021/Toronto, CN) who was not only explosive to the cup and finished
with contact, but was also proficient at knocking down 3-pointers. Langley also was a willing and able passer. We were impressed with the play of Jacoi Hutchinson (5’9”/SG/2022/Silver
Springs, MD), who showed good pace of play, a solid handle and the ability to
finish near the basket on a consistent basis.
We didn’t really get to see him, but everything we’ve heard about Colin Porter (CG/2024/KY) suggests he
has a bright future. He may be a bit
flashy, but Collins is highly skilled, plays on both ends of the ball and
always seems to make the right play. We
hope to get a look at Porter soon!
Other
Standout performers included: Terrence Clark (6’6”/2021), Tae Perie
(5’8”/CG/2021/Akron, OH) Aiden Mahaney (5’11”/PG/2022/Lafayette, CA), Josiah
Johnson (5’5”/PG/2023/Sacramento, CA), Jeremiah Dargan (6’4”/WF/2022/Concord,
CA), Michael Williams (6’0”/PG/2023/San Diego, CA), Jarace Walker

MI), Elijah Jamison (6’1”/CG/2021/Lewisburg, NC), Josiah Johnson

(4’7”/PG/Painesville, OH), Sean Clark (2023/MD), Adam Duvall (2022), Jason
Simpson (2021/FL), Dariq Whitehead (2022/NJ), Treymane Parker (2023/NC), Gavin
Bullock (2023/NC), Tayshawn Corner (2022/IN), Josiah Mobley (PG/2021/Columbus,
OH) and Darryn Peterson (2024/OH).
Because we
only had a few hours to spend at the event we only had the opportunity to
evaluate half of the players in attendance. The players listed above caught our
attention while we were there, but we know there were a number of other
standouts at the event we did not get a chance to see. We would like to congratulate D Rich for
putting together an excellent event.
Next up is the Buckeye Prep Elite Showcase set for September 9th
& 10th, where many of the players highlighted above will be in
attendance.
