Strengths: For this group, you have a ton of guards. Between White, Tate, Bradley, and Johnson, you have four guys who can all play on the ball and with that, all can score it. White is the best of the bunch as he can score the ball from anywhere on the floor. Tate and Johnson have proven to be really solid shooters from distance.
Why College Programs Should Watch: College programs should give this team a look for a couple 2017’s still trying to find a spot in Waldon, Simmons, and Glenn. But also, DII programs should key in on Jay Hines, Caleb Brown, and Myja White. They all fit but could easily jump up a level by the end of the summer.
Player To Watch: Caleb Brown (Broad Ripple) – Brown has been playing really well, showing that he has a really good jumper from the mid-range. He will still need to finish working on his driving ability and long range shot but he has a lot of skill and good size. His jumper is what makes him stand apart.
Where To Find Them: This team is on the Adidas Gauntlet Gold circuit so look for them this weekend in Dallas and next weekend in Atlanta, Outside of that, they should be in Indianapolis a ton this year.
