Posted Dec 31, 2024
Deron Rippey Jr., a five-star point guard in the class of 2026 (who received a UNC offer on Monday), made his case for the nation’s top point guard at the Jordan Holiday Classic, dropping 27.5 points, 5 rebounds, and 4.5 assists in two wins for Blair Academy. "He was really good," one NBA scout said. "He’s a much better outside shooter than advertised."
