#PHTop250 PNW Recap: Top Players C/O 2022

<p>I had the privileged of attending two PrepHoops Top250 Expo's last weekend. Two days, two cities, four flights, and nearly 500 prospects. The Pacific Northwest has been a hotbed of hoops in recent years. By attending both Expos, I was treated to a full collection of talented players. In this article PH takes a look at some of the top C/O 2022 players from the Oregon and Washington Expos.</p> <p><strong>Tyler Linhardt 6’7 SF Kings (#161 PH 2022) </strong><em>(WA)</em> - I have to say, going in I didn't really know much about Linhardt. I'm leaving realizing he's a big time player. Extremely fluid athlete. Linhardt showed the ability to be a consistent frontcourt playmaker. Easy to project him as a mid to high major prospect assuming he continues to develop.</p> <p><strong>Mason VanBeenen 6’9 SF West Linn </strong><em>(OR)</em> - I think I've caught MVB fever. He plays the shy timid type, however this kid is an animal. At the Expo he was all the way turned up. He sprinted the floor, created plays for his teammates and protected the rim. He'll need to add some strength and refine his offensive game, but the fact of the matter is, there are a ton of coaches looking for 6'9 players with his skill-set.</p> <p><strong>Kaeden McGlothin 6'7 PF Stanwood </strong><em>(WA)</em> - McGlothin's physicality stood out. A downhill attacker, he did the majority of his damage in transition. Raw player with terrific upside. If he continues to play with the same type of motor, and proves he can stretch the floor consistently, his future is pretty bright.</p> <p><strong>Christian Rowell 6'6 PF Mountainside</strong> <em>(OR)</em> - The sweet shooting lefty made a huge impression on me. Displayed a feathery touch and the ability to stretch the floor. Ran the floor well, and did a fabulous job of letting the game come to him. Rowell has a future in this game. Like VanBeenen he will need to add strength, however his overall floor game and skill set make him a promising prospect. </p> <p><strong>Donatello Tupper 6'3 SG Roosevelt </strong><em>(OR)</em> - I really like Tupper's upside. He showed that he was a playmaker, and has the ability to effect the game on both ends. Jack of all trades type. Tupper showed a solid handle and a knack for finishing in transition.</p> <p><strong>Noah Ogoli 5'11 PG Tualatin</strong> <em>(OR)</em> - Ogoli showed solid two way ability. He protected the ball and created plays on the offensive end. On the defensive side he played the role of a pest. Shot it well from 3, and stayed under control for the session.</p> <p><strong>Keshav Anand 6'4 SF Westview</strong> <em>(OR)</em> - The lefty was cool. He showed a smooth handle and the ability to knock down jumpers. He finished well around the rim, and showed an ability to create. Anand was also one of the high academic guys at the Expo, coming in with a 4.0 GPA. He has a bright future both on and off the court. </p> <p><strong>Christopher Clark 6'0 PG Mercer Island</strong> <em>(WA)</em> - Clark had a solid Expo. Shot the ball well, and played under control. Clark did a good job of allowing the ball to find him. Drove past older defenders, and showed a nice finishing touch in transition.</p> <p><strong>Nicholas Ferencko 5'11 PG Bellarmine</strong> <em>(WA)</em> - Ferencko is a knock down shooter. He's already at an upperclassmen level in terms of shot prep. He moved well without the ball and excelled at both backcourt spots. Really intrigued to see what his future holds. He has an elite skill, now the challenge becomes for him to continue to add to his game. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
