Scout Report
When a 2027 guard drops 36 points in a single game, you take notice. That's exactly what happened with Anthony Taylor this season.
Background
Taylor brings that pure scorer mentality that coaches love to build around. While details about his hometown and school background remain limited, his AAU circuit performances have started catching eyes. Playing alongside highly ranked teammates like Boyuan Zhang and Precious Sam tells you he's running with quality competition.
Playing Style
This kid can flat-out score the basketball. His 36-point explosion shows he can take over games when needed, mixing that aggressive mindset with solid court vision evidenced by his 4 assists in that same performance. The rebounding numbers for a guard are encouraging too - shows he's not afraid to mix it up and crash the boards. Still early in his development cycle, but the raw scoring ability jumps off the page. Needs to prove he can be consistent night after night, but the ceiling is definitely there.
Recruitment
IU Northwest got in early with an offer, which makes sense for a program looking to land talent before the bigger schools catch on. As a 2027 prospect, Taylor has plenty of time to develop and see his recruitment heat up. If he keeps putting up numbers like this, expect more mid-major and potentially low-major Division I programs to start circling.
Stat Highlight
That 36-point, 6-rebound, 4-assist performance is the kind of stat line that gets coaches' attention. Add in his 144 total points tracked and another 31-point game, and you're looking at legitimate scoring production.
