(Markus Burton following his huge game at the Hardwood Invitational)
Over the weekend, Penn guard Markus Burton attracted a dozen D1 coaches to his Indy Heat-Red games at the Hardwood Invitational. After a fantastic junior year, Burton has a few D1 offers and tons of interest.
Bob Huggins and a West Virginia assistant sat in the first row of Burton’s game on Saturday. Purdue-Fort Wayne’s Jon Coffman and two assistants were there, and Ball State’s Michael Lewis plus an assistant watched. Miami’s Travis Steele and assistants from Toledo, Illinois State, Evansville, Grand Canyon, and others observed Burton.
Burton tallied 29 points, including a layup as the buzzer sounded, to give Indy Heat-Red a win over Bounce Elite. He fully displayed quickness and his finishing ability in the game. There was shot-blocker in the lane to bother Burton, but his change of direction with the ball in his hands provided a wow factor.
2023 Carmel High School and G3 All-Indy guard Garwey Dual continues to receive scholarships as Providence, Arizona State, TCU, and VCU have recently extended offers. How exactly did his soaring recruitment go from zero to one hundred this spring? Indiana Basketball Source details the rise.
Indiana Basketball Source went through Dual’s game and recruitment earlier this spring. The article (found here) showed that Dual’s advanced numbers with Carmel stuck out much more than his counting stats. That has been proven this spring with G3 All-Indy.
In the first part, Indiana Basketball Source looked at 12 17U prospects that could break out of their current recruitment level. The outlook continues, with many of the players detailed beginning their recruitment, in this article. Here are 11 players that could increase their recruiting profile this weekend.
