Why Beckham Black Is a Top Point Guard to Watch
Beckham Black, a 6 foot 3 guard from Southeastern Prep High School, out of Orlando received an offer on January 9th from the University of North Carolina. With this latest offer for Black, there has to be something brewing down there in Orlando because that will be the third player out of Southeastern Prep to receive an offer from the Tar Heels. The other two are C.J. Rosser, who is the No. 2 ranked prospect and Obinna Ekezie, No. 4 ranked prospect according to ESPN Next 60.

Coach Hubert Davis was in the building for the John Wall Invitational where Black was playing where he then received that offer just two weeks later. He has also received offers from Kentucky, Arkansas and Auburn just to name a few on the list.

Anthony Black, who was the No. 6 overall pick by the Orlando Magic in the 2023 NBA Draft, is the older brother of Beckham. He is currently in the third season with the Magic after just playing one season at Arkansas…
