Prospect Introduction: Philip "PJ" Mullins

Who is he?:

Philip, a native of Chapmanville, West Virginia, just completed his final season playing with Chapmanville Regional High School (Chapmanville, WV). They finished the year at 22-2 overall and were fighting for playoff birth in the Class AA state tournament before the season was canceled due to the coronavirus. Mullins averaged 15.1 points per game this year.

He spent this past summer playing with the WV Mpact for former Logan HS standout Coach Paul Williamson. There he played alongside CJ Meredith (Marshall commit), Jay Moore (WVU commit) and several Division II prospects.

PJ Mullins is a 6'3" combo guard that can do a little bit of everything. He is more than capable of playing the point guard position, but right now he is better at the 2. Phillip is one of the state's best shooters. He is able to shoot the 3 ball very well and consistently, shoots the mid range jumper well and has a good pull up game. Philip finishes well with contact and gets himself to the line frequently. He also has been used very well in his time at Chapmanville by Coach Brad Napier as a secondary distributor. Mullins is also capable of guarding 1-3 at the collegiate level because of his mobility, resiliency and toughness. If I'm ever going to war this is someone I want.

Watching him play this year, he reminded me of Avery Bradley. Each are gritty, tough defenders, have the ability to put the ball on the floor, score at all 3 levels and are guys that are fit to play ANY role.
