<p>Prep Hoops Missouri introduces you to some new names of prospects from the Southwest Missouri region who caught my eye at the Prep Hoops Live extravaganza in Kansas City.</p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1180602" first="Jaden" last="McCoy"] 6’3” DC Missouri Kings 17U: This 2022 wing player from Spokane was very impressive in the game I watched against a very athletic KC Spurs Silver team. He had some strong takes to the basket and flashed some three-level scoring ability. His motor was equally impressive.</p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1167901" first="Ty" last="Cooper"] 6’1 All-Missouri Attack 17U: The 2022 guard from Reeds Spring displayed an excellent stroke throughout the weekend. His shooting range extended well beyond the 3-point line. If he caught a defender napping with his hand down, he would let it fly from downtown.</p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="985424" first="Devin" last="Carroll"] 6’4 Kings Basketball 17 Navy: The 2022 from Fair Grove was one of the best players I saw in terms of moving without the basketball. He was constantly moving and keeping the floor balanced, often scoring on sharp cuts. He also had a reliable lefty stroke from 3-point range.</p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1150476" first="Teddy" last="Reedybacon"] 6’10 Victory Ministry: A 2022 post player from McDonald County who moved pretty well and did a nice job establishing a good base inside. He could also turn and face and make a quick move off the bounce. Can finish well with either hand.</p>
<p>Miller Long 6’3 Rainmakers 17U: A 2022 wing player from College Heights Christian who had a very productive weekend shooting the ball. He did a nice job moving to the open spots on the floor to get his shots. He also scored on some nice back door cuts when defenders weren’t paying attention.</p>
<p>Curtis Davenport 6’5 Rainmakers 17U: A 2023 forward from College Heights Christian who looked very solid while playing up at 17U level. He operates pretty well out top as a good screener and passer. He’ll also drive it from the high post. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1144087" first="Joseph" last="Graves"] 6’6 Kings Basketball 15U: A 2024 forward from Lighthouse Christian who had an impressive weekend in leading his team to a 4-0 record. He has good feet and excellent fundamentals in the post along with the ability to score with either hand.</p>
