Cortez Taylor '28 Recruiting Profile

My name is Cortez Taylor, a student-athlete deeply passionate about basketball. My journey on the court commenced in 2016 at age seven, and I have since matured into a skilled Combo Guard capable of commanding both Point Guard and Shooting Guard positions with aplomb. My game is marked by boundless energy and a strategic approach to scoring, complemented by a defensive prowess that effectively disrupts opponents and catalyzes turnovers. My comprehensive understanding of the game and ability to maintain high performance on both offensive and defensive fronts classify me as a significant addition to any College Basketball Program. 

My international exposure includes competing in the 2023 African Child Youth Day Basketball Tournament in Cape Town, sponsored by Under Armor, where I was honored as the game MVP. This prestigious experience was augmented by my participation in two D1 Prospect camps during the same year, where I refined my skills under the tutelage of elite trainers. The coaching and training insights I have received from former NBA, WNBA players and a seasoned International Professional Coach have profoundly enriched my tactical understanding and execution on the court.
