Top 5 players in Hillsborough County
http://bayareahoops.com/2016-breakdown-player-profiles
#1 is 6' 8" SF Kevin Knox (2017) of Tampa Catholic H.S.3. Tyson Ward – A 6’4″ 175 lb undecided prospect guard of Tampa Prep(Fl.), has improved tremendously and has excepted the challenge of being the guy at Tampa Prep when star forward Juwan Durham went down. Tyson Ward He’s stock as risen and he has shown he is capable of being a D1 prospect. Ward has a hybrid game that gives him an ability to play 3 positions. He’s competitive in which he’s shown against top teams such has Montverde Academy, Tampa Catholic and others. He’s producing and I think he’s just starting to scratch the surface. Look for him to excel at his next destination.
Drew a Kevin Durant comp. Sounds like a national recruit.
#2 is 6' 10" 200 lb Juwan Durham - Tyson Ward's teammate who has
signed with UConn. Tore one ACL last season and the other this year,
so Tyson Ward has had to step forward for Tampa Prep.
#4. Thomas Dziagwa – 6' 4" SG - Tampa Catholic (FL.) - Oklahoma State commit
#5. David Jones – A 6’ 2” 165 lbs PG/SG - Leto HS (undecided)
Receiving D1 interest from Canisius, VMI, Furman and Alcorn St.

"Look for him to excel at his next destination" is exactly what we like to hear for Bison recruits, developmental players that can go from good to great while they are here. Sounds like another great late signing period get, hopefully he pans out!
Kid looks good enough to play right away and have a role. His hudl tape is pretty ridiculous.
Sounds like Jayden was really on this kid, like some have pointed out he has really exploded the last two years. Love his versatility and ability to play multiple positions. From the tape I have seen he makes a lot of winning plays and competes on both ends. Had lots on interest from Florida schools and multiple ACC teams came and watched him play but none offered. Looks to be a good one.
Kid looks legit! Love how this staff recruits nationwide.
Tyson Ward has solid fundamentals, high bb iq, plays hard on both ends of floor, AND looks to be just starting to play his best basketball----Lots of Upside
He is really excited to come to NDSU as he committed from Tampa, Florida without a campus visit!
