Today’s Team Preview features the very gritty and athletic squad out of Irving, Texas, The Irving MacArthur Cardinals. The Cardinals have talent in every position on the floor and on top of that they have a good bench that will give them production and valuable minutes when they are in the game. They have three returning starters who are all seniors this year in 2021 SG Marcus Rigsby, 2021 PG Davion Daily and 2021 PF Kenny Hardy. They've also picked up transfer from Arlington Seguin who is a Top 100 ranked player in the state for 2022 PG CJ Booker. This team is dangerous because they are tough, fast, gritty and have multiple players who can get buckets in a hurry and they also have a flamethrower shooter in Top 50 Texas Ranked sophomore in SG BJ Hooper who you can’t leave open or he’ll torch you.
Here is a more detailed summary of the Prospects to watch on Irving MacArthur:
Prospects To Watch
Kenny Hardy • PF • 2021
A strong athletic forward who plays extremely hard on the inside and takes pride in rebounding the basketball and is a tough finisher around the cup.
Davion Daily • PG • 2021
The stocky lead guard utilizes his frame to bully defenders to his spots to create for himself and for others. His Dog mentality and playmaking skills will be much needed for the Cardinals this season.
Marcus Rigsby • SG • 2021
Rigsby is one of the top scorers in the state and this wiry guard has the scoring tools to go off offensively at any time, because he can play on or off the ball and score on all levels in a efficient manner.
CJ Booker • PG • 2022
Booker gives the Cardinals another talented playmaker who isn’t afraid of making big plays no matter who he's playing against. A crafty guard that can make jumpers off the dribble or create scoring opportunities for his teammates.
BJ Hooper • SG • 2023
The Sophomore guard is a shot maker who doesn't need to much space or time to get his shot off and as I stated earlier if you let him get in a groove he's going to make you pay offensively.
Conclusion
Whoever is playing this team this season is going to be in for a dog fight because they are not going to back down from anyone and they have the weapons to win a lot of games and compete for a District championship.
