#PRO Resolution 2021 Boys Recap

’21 Devin Pope (Cross Creek): Listed as 6’2”, however, Pope plays a lot bigger than his size. Easily one of the most athletic kids at #Resolution, Pope can get to the rim quickly and finish over taller/bigger defenders. He consistently attacked the rim (with a few highlight dunks) and showed the ability to knockdown perimeter jumpers. On defensive end, Pope was active and very engaged. Immediately picking up his man full court and forcing turnovers. Coming off a senior that ended with a state championship, Pope is another #UnsignedSenior that could impact a collegiate program from day 1.

’22 Izaiyah Nelson (Marietta): Nelson is a very long, athletic post that plays with a certain edge and toughness. Quick enough to defend wings and forwards, Nelson is also a great rim protector, making him quite the versatile defender college coaches love. Recently, earning an offer from Voorhees College, the athletic post’s stock will continue to rise over the next year.

‘21 Dylan Bennifield (Mt.Paran): Bennifield has the entire package to be a very good collegiate point guard. After seeing him in person a few times in March, the #PRO staff is extremely high on Dylan. Being a true competitor, leader and the ultimate floor general, Bennifield brings everything to the table from a impactful point guard perspective. Also, holding a 3.8 GPA and earning a 1160 on the SAT. #UnsignedSenior that is far from “another 6’0″ guard”.

Johnson loves the big moments and seems to rise to the occasion when he is challenged to do so. Expect Johnson to explode next year at Warren County.

’21 Chase Ballard (Stephenson) : One of the top players today from the camp. Ballard is a blur in the open court and demonstrated a high level court vision. The shifty PG keeps opposing defenders backpedaling and on their heels. Also, Ballard is a very good shooter that can create scoring opportunities for himself as well. However, Ballard has great speed and quickness, paired with gifted passing abilities. Currently holding an offer from East Georgia, Ballard has solidified his spot as of Georgia’s premier floor generals. Visit Chase’s #PRO Recruiting Profile Here
