For those that subscribe, you will love this write up on Lowe, but it also talks a lot about Carrington.

The one nugget that the writer put in the piece was that he thought Lowe had as good of a year as anyone in the Class of 2023.

He had a really good year in the EYBL as did Carrington and both had huge senior seasons. What amazes me is why is this coming out now and not last summer. I mean, ON3 has Carrington as the #2 freshmen entering the entire ACC this year. Stats matter in these high school summer leagues, I can't say that enough times.


1 year from today, some of the same stuff is going to be coming out regarding Beebah Cummings who tore up the EYBL this past summer.


 

Jaland Lowe | 6-3 point guard | Pittsburgh

Pitt was one of the surprise teams in the college basketball world last season, as the Panthers were predicted to finish 13th in the ACC but finished fourth and made the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2016. This season, the Panthers have the most talented backcourt in Jeff Capel’s tenor with a pair of four-star guards Jaland Lowe and Carlton Carrington. Lowe had arguably the best summer of any prospect in the 2023 class, as he went from a three-star recruit with a handful of offers to finishing with 14 offers and rounding out his high school career as the No. 82 prospect according to the 247Sports Composite. The Panthers only added one guard via the transfer portal — Ishmael Leggett from Rhode Island — so both Lowe and Carrington will have to play a good amount of minutes. Both freshmen can play either guard spot, and I’m excited to see how they develop and play alongside one another. Both have good size, see the floor well, and can score the ball. They are also coaches’ sons and have been prepared for moments like this. There will be bumps in the road for these two, but by the year’s end, they will be seen as one of the best freshmen backcourts in the country.
 
I think Lowe is good and is the classic Howland/Dixon 4 year player in that he's a guy that can and probably would be all-league in his later years but as I always say, these are all 1 year players now so its not really likely he'll stay 4 years. Nobody does. Carrington is better though. Carrington could be one of the top frosh in the ACC.
