Ari Stewart


  • Height: 6-7
  • Weight: 195
  • Position: Forward
  • Rivals.com ranking: 53
  • Strengths: Has good size and athleticism. … His length allows him to impact the game on both ends. … Can shoot from outside and finish in traffic. … Continues to show improvement and long-term potential.
  • Weaknesses: Needs work on his ballhandling. … Has lapses where his overall productivity falls off.
  • They said it: “Ari Stewart is a stellar athlete, and excels in finishing off the dribble. He is an effective perimeter shooter and has the versatility to play both forward positions. He does need to become stronger but he plays with intensity, rebounds well and is a fine ballhandler for his size. I predict that he will be an immediate contributor for the Demon Deacons next season.” – Bob Gibbons, recruiting analyst on ESPN.com

C.J. Harris


  • Height: 6-2
  • Weight: 175
  • Position: Shooting Guard
  • Rivals.com ranking: Not Ranked
  • Strengths: Proficient scorer who’s strong off the dribble. … A respected team leader. … Seems to enjoy pressure situations. … Can be a disruptive defender.
  • Weaknesses: Needs to develop a better jump shot. … Average athleticism for the next level.
  • They said it: “The Wake Forest system fits him because they do a lot of dribble-drive (with their offense). But the thing I like most about C.J. is his teams win. His AAU team wins, his Mount Tabor (High School) teams win and really, he will do whatever it takes to win. That's what I appreciate about him the most.” – Andy Muse, Harris’ coach at Mount Tabor High School in Winston-Salem (to the Winston-Salem Journal)
Class of 2010 committments

Tony Chenault


  • Height: 6-2
  • Weight: 170
  • Position: Point Guard
  • Rivals.com ranking: 117
  • Strengths: Versatile guard who can be an explosive scorer. … Has admirable toughness and leadership skills.
  • Weaknesses: Needs to improve his shooting consistency. … Could stand to get stronger and enhance his quickness.
  • They said it: “His biggest asset is sometimes his biggest detriment, in that he's just so competitive. You draw a fine line between trying to curb that a little bit because you don't want to take that away from a kid. He's so competitive where he plays himself into exhaustion sometimes.” – Carl Arrigale, Chenault’s coach at Neumann-Goretti High School in Philadelphia (to the Winston-Salem Journal)

J.T. Terrell


  • Height: 6-3
  • Weight: 180
  • Rivals.com ranking: 111
  • Strengths: Can score in bunches with super shooting from long range. … Noticeable athleticism. … Brings a high energy level to the floor.
  • Weaknesses: Isn’t always intelligent with his shot selection. … Sometimes uncomfortable dribbling against pressure. … Needs to get stronger and work on his passing.
  • They said it: "From a basketball standpoint, J.T. is getting better every day. He's one of the best shooters in the country and has a really, really nice shot that's effective against a high level of competition. He's worked hard on not just being a catch-and-shoot kind of guy but being able to put it on the floor and create for himself and has made tremendous strides there. The Achilles heel in his game right now is a combination of maturity and his defensive ability. He's long, he's definitely athletic and he's a kid who has all the tools to be a lockdown defender. But his level of commitment to doing that is not as high now as it will be. But that doesn't make him any better or worse. That just makes him a high school basketball player." -- Brian Clifton, Terrell's AAU coach with D-One Sports
