4-star Silas Demary drawing high major programs all week

Four-star point guard Silas Demary, Jr. completed his second senior year official visit to NC State on Sunday. On Monday, more college coaches were at Lincolnton (NC) Combine Academy to see the 6-foot-5 Demary.

Demary, Jr. is the No. 61 player in On3’s 2023 class rankings. It makes sense coaches would be doubling back to see Demary; he is a top-five available point guard in the country and is still open in his recruitment. This summer, Demary was first-team All-NBPA Top 100 camp. He then averaged 12.8 points, 4.8 assists, and 1.5 steals. He shot 61.8 percent from the field, leading his Team Curry program to a 15-6 record on the UAA Next Circuit.

Demary took three early official visits to Tennessee, VCU, and St. John’s. He has taken two senior year official visits to Southern California and NC State and has three potential visits remaining.

Wake Forest head coach Steve Forbes was joined by VCU to watch on Monday. On Tuesday, Oklahoma came through to watch.

🎥: Clips from Silas’ performance yesterday in open play. Didn’t miss from 3, only missed one shot overall the entire day. Silas continues to get better daily! One of the best guards in the country whose stock continues to rise!@silas_demaryjr @CoachWrightMike https://t.co/94kC2FoKtg pic.twitter.com/MIChxtjVWe

Demary’s scouting report

Silas Demary is a high-level defender, both on and off the ball. Great length. Excellent anticipation. Really competes at a high level. He plays with a great pace, which enables him to make plays in the paint. The shot-making is efficient; he shot over 61 percent from the field during the UAA Next Circuit. He is an aggressive downhill scorer with touch that extends beyond the three-point line. Great in transition. Solid athlete. Dad played professional football. Like to see continue to tighten the jump shot. State champion. UAA champion.
