The rankings don’t quite reflect it yet, but 2024 wing Billy Richmond is proving himself as one of the top players in the rising senior class to open the Nike EYBL season. Through eight games in Session I and II, the 6-foot-6 prospect is averaging 16.6 points on 52.2% from the field and 73.1% at the line to go with 5.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.6 steals in 25.0 minutes per contest.
That scoring output is good for No. 17 overall in all of 17U while leading his NJ Scholars squad — yes, the same one that sent DJ Wagner and Aaron Bradshaw to Kentucky — to a 7-1 start to open grassroots play.
