Eli Cross
Height: 5’7”
Grad Year / Position: 2020 – Point Guard
School / Hometown: Chilhowee MS (Benton, Tenn.)
Committed College: Undecided
Quick Scoop:
You would not have been able to tell that Cross was just an eighth grader unless you had a roster in front of you at the Showcase. He has an advanced skill set for his age. He has very good ball skill and even proved that he could get to the rim with the drive. Given the fact that he was competing against players several years older than him, we expect many more positive evaluations from Cross in the future.
