The EYBL circuit is VERY good. It’s not they only place any longer! Don’t kid yourself. The basketball played on the other circuits is just as good! Again EYBL is legit but it’s not your only option. FACTS

6’0 ‘26 Nick Arnold (Team Charlotte) orchestrates a team with an amazing blend of IQ, poise, and toughness. Exceptional playmaker and defender who leads through his rugged, unselfish approach to the game. Always looking to make the right play. Pure menace defensively #PHLFinals

POB's Thoughts on 2026 Nick Arnold Nick Arnold #PhenomHoops #PHLFinals

6’3 ‘26 Taurean McKinnon (Team Charlotte) truly doesn’t need the ball to make an impact. Suffocating defender and active rebounder. Possesses a great frame, high motor, and nose for the ball. Excels at doing the dirty work and filling in the gaps offensively #PHLFinals

6’6 ‘26 Jayon Connor (Dub Salem) has been very clutch down the stretch. Securing timely rebounds and converting putback finishes. Bouncy athlete with a strong frame, developing ball skills, & the physicality to overwhelm opponents on both ends. Still has so much upside #PHLFinals

Highlights from the Phenom Hoops League Finals. Individual Stats: 24ppg, 5rpg, 4apg, 2spg. Had an amazing time playing with Carolina Riptide 🌊 for Coach Grant Hodges this spring / summer. Looking forward to my senior season!

UNC football has always dominated August Same as it ever was

Leave the cool factor at the door. The one who works and plays the hardest usually comes out on top. 💯

In college that “bag” you been working on go out the window! The bag for college is: pick and roll reads, catch and shoot 3s, defending, IQ plays. The 4 move combo with the spin you will probably never do.

Time for Luke Baldwin & Rick Ware Racing to finish up the CARS Tour Throwback 100. 📺 FloRacing at 1:30PM from Hickory.

Parents: if you have a child playing their last year of HS, ENJOY the ride! Soak in every moment! There will never be another time like it ever! If they are blessed to play in college, it will be a lot of fun, but not like HS. These are the best times so enjoy & relish in them!
