The class of 2023 has some special talent that is just starting blossom in the state of Oklahoma. 6’0 PG Sebastian Perry has his eyes set on being the next big-name guard out of the state and he is just figuring out how to put it all together. The scary part is that with his unbelievable work ethic and drive, his ceiling is unlimited. When it is all said and done, he could be a prospect that explodes beyond what people may see right now.
He is a good size for an elite level point guard. He is impossible to stay in front of in the half court and has no problem taking over a game at any point. He is an elite ball handler who can break defenses down off the dribble and get to the paint from anywhere in the half court. He sees plays before they happen and delivers passes with precision to his teammates. He seems to always know how to put them position to score the ball and feeds off being the leader on the floor. He has put in a lot of work on his three-point shooting and has become a legitimate three level scorer and is one of the most complete guards that you will find in his class. He has a lightning quick first step and has a great understanding for the game and high IQ for his age. He has a high motor and is always in attack mode and never takes any plays off.
Defensively he is just as good as on the offensive end. He takes pride in taking on the best player on the opposing end and shutting him down. He has great instincts on ball and is constantly picking the pockets of guards who put the ball in front of him. He also plays the passing lanes very well and gets a lot of steals that lead to easy transition buckets for his team. He rebounds the ball well for his size and has great fundamentals in terms of boxing out. He sets the tone for his team and is the ultimate leader on the floor as well as in the classroom. He has put himself in position to be a highly sought-after prospect and uses each day to add a new piece to his game.
His play on the court this past travel season for the always talented Cooz Elite program showed his skillset against some of the best travel teams in the country. He was able to pick up offers from Southwest Oklahoma St and Oklahoma City University. Other programs have begun to take notice and have made him someone that they will be playing close attention over the next 12-18 months as he continues to improve on the court and excel in the classroom.
