Summer Shooters
<p>Every player wants to be a shooter and every college coach is looking for a player that can torch the nets from deep. Not everybody can do it though. Shooting the 3 is a skill and an art form. We’ll look at some players that shot the lights out from three point land over the course of grassroots season this summer. </p>
<p><strong>Jacob Carlson (2021, SG, Grand Blanc, Flint’s Finest)</strong></p>
<p>Just this past weekend Carlson put his shooting on display. He averaged 19 points per game, lighting it up from outside. Carlson had 7 triples in 1 game. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="811128" first="Ethan" last="Erickson"] (2021, SG, Forest Hills Northern, Storm UA Rise)</strong></p>
<p>Erickson has the look of a 3 point sniper.....at the next level. He’s shown an array of ways he can connect including using a jab step to create space and with a hand in his face. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="863988" first="Kobe" last="Haglund"] (2021, PG, West Ottawa, MBA Lakeshore)</strong></p>
<p>Haglund was solid this summer in many facets, but his shooting stood out. He hit 5 threes in 1 game, shooting 100% from behind the arc. Haglund has incredibly good shot selection, knowing when and where his teams needs one. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="948487" first="Tyler" last="Johnson"] (2021, SG, Croswell-Lexington, Oakland Elite)</strong></p>
<p>Johnson has really put his name on the map as an upper echelon scorer. One weekend this summer, he hit 8 three pointers and over 10 on the weekend. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="814649" first="Josh" last="Rechsteiner"] (2021, SG, Grand Blanc, Oakland Elite)</strong></p>
<p>Rechsteiner has had an impressive summer and his 3 point shooting has been a big part of that. He’s shown an under appreciated quickness that helps free him up for a triple. College coaches will want to take a peek. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="814673" first="Koby" last="Vanderwoude"] (2021, PG, Caledonia, MBA)</strong></p>
<p>Vanderwoude is a terrific floor general, but he really made defenses respect his 3 point shot during grassroots season. He had as many as 15 points from 3 in a game this season. </p>
