<p>Always a tall task picking the All-Tournament "Teams", so I’d like to list 22 top performers I saw from the A-Town Showdown’s 16U division at Campbell HS, with the "5 Best" in my opinion listed at top (in no particular order):</p>
<p><em><strong>Mason Bennett, 6-0, CG, Wood Elite</strong></em></p>
<p>Traits: Versatile backcourt man, mass hustler in every facet with the highest or work rates, deceptive skills and athletic ability across the board, does everything well at both ends</p>
<p><em><strong>Jaron Walker, 6-1, CG, Big Shots Elite VA Nets (2024)</strong></em></p>
<p>Traits: Elite scorer finds the bucket in a lot of ways, plays either guard spot equally well, speedy but poised with tremendous unselfishness for a top scoring guard</p>
<p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1042849" first="Brandon" last="Rechsteiner"], 6-0, PG, Atlanta All Stars</strong></em></p>
<p>Traits: Lights out shooter past the arc, easy, smooth handle, excellent passer and has the natural acumen on the floor of a kid born to play the game</p>
<p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="709243" first="Hayden" last="McCain"], 6-1, PG, Team Speights</strong></em></p>
<p>Traits: Another deadeye shooter with unlimited range, great composure and decision-making as a lead guard, plays a sound brand of basketball with few weaknesses</p>
<p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1059030" first="Jaylen" last="Priester"], 5-9, PG, Georgia Express </strong></em></p>
<p>Traits: Warp speed with the ball in his hands, among the best mid-range attacking guards I’ve seen since November, a polished scorer and instinctive defender</p>
