Jordan Lathon 6’4″ Grandview: An impressive athletic point guard who displayed the ability to impact the game at both ends of the court. Lathon is like a predator on defense at the top of Grandview’s full-court press, stalking opposing ball handlers and wreaking all kinds of havoc with his length and tenacity. Offensively, he is tough off the dribble with his slick handles and his ability to get to the basket and finish at all kinds of angles. He also knocked down several mid-range jumpers during the day. He reminds me a little of former Providence star Kris Dunn with his size and athleticism at the point.
Isaac Weider 6’3″ Vienna: One of the top offensive players at the camp, the big combo guard gets buckets upon buckets upon buckets. He is always under control in his pursuits to the basket. In one game, he made nine consecutive shots to break open a close contest. He knocked down several long 3-pointers, but he also got to the basket and converted several floaters in which he displayed a soft touch on the move. Isaac also posted up small guards and scored in the paint. One of the top offensive threats in the Class of 2018.
Mason Taylor 5’9″: Grandview: Talented guard who plays well at the point or off the ball. His quickness and handles enable him to get to the basket and create good offense. He finishes at the rim with layups and nice floaters. He has a good mid-range jumper off the bounce. He goes at full speed and stops on the dime to shoot with good elevation and balance. He operates well in a very fast-paced game.
