Top college basketball prospects in NC and SC match up this weekend. How to watch.
▪ Athletes from Mecklenburg County and the Triangle will be well-represented at the N.C. Top 80 basketball event at the Rock Hill Sports & Events Center on Saturday afternoon.
There are 17 players from the Triangle and 39 from the Mecklenburg County-area participating.
This will be the seventh year that Phenom Hoops recruiting analyst Rick Lewis has hosted the Top 80, which annually features the top 9th, 10th and 11th grade college basketball recruits in the state. But this year’s event will also include high school seniors, who weren’t able to play this past spring.
The Top 80 is usually held in March but was postponed this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“I think it’s the deepest field we’ve ever had,” Lewis said. “From top to bottom, the talent in North Carolina is unbelievable.”
The S.C. Top 80 will be held at the same time, and Lewis has set up a format where teams from South Carolina will face North Carolina teams in a Sweet 16 format. Check out the rosters and schedule below.
One of the first-round games Saturday will feature two top-10 national talents: Combine Academy sophomore Robert Dillingham will play for N.C. Team 5 against Westminster Catawba freshman Jahseem Felton, a nephew of former UNC point guard Raymond Felton. The younger Felton will play for S.C. Team 5. Tip off is at 5:20 p.m.
How to watch
When: Skills stations begin at 3:15 p.m. and games start at 4:30 p.m.
Cost: Admission is $15
Watch: Games will be live streamed on Phenom Hoop Report’s website.
