</div> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Brock Vice (Houston) </strong>- Brock was surprisingly light on his feet in my first evaluation of him.  His ability to handle the ball was also stunning at 6-foot-10.  Facing [player_tooltip player_id="1022635" first="David" last="Craig"], there was clearly some ambition to attack from 12+ feet out.  It is interesting that Brock apparently prefers the face-up and drive game.  It will be intriguing to see how he materializes in the next year.  Previous teammates [player_tooltip player_id="548394" first="Mason" last="Miller"] and [player_tooltip player_id="775539" first="Zander" last="Yates"] signed with Creighton with similar ideals.  </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1025784" first="Elijah" last="Bredwood"] (Bearden) -</strong> Wow!  Elijah played early within a deep Bearden program, which is difficult to earn.  Bredwood was a volume scorer from the time he hit the court, back as an underclassman, and still now.  He reminds of a Louis Williams.  Extremely athletic. Scores with explosion and guile combined.  Bredwood lulled his man to sleep and surged into the lane like a running back hitting the hole, only to rise above the rim, clanking it off in dramatic fashion.  Bredwood is a really exciting combo threat. Used a ball screen expertly.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1006435" first="Evan" last="Eursher"] (Webb-Bell Buckle)</strong> - Evan was again fantastic.  Eursher earned the medallion of go-to scorer for<em> Team Red.</em> After forcing a shot, a fading floater, Eursher took a more certain and calm three-pointer on the following push.  He made the second.  Eursher was so clever with the ball in transition.  Noticing a double coming, he drug his defender towards the double and essentially ran him into the trapper.  Because the trapper was coming to the double his "side" was clearly less guarded and Eursher used his momentum running away from his man and into the double to blaze past the trapper.  EE finished with a scoop left-handed layup. So casual.  On the ensuing possession, Eursher put a quick cross on AAU-teammate [player_tooltip player_id="1224054" first="Trent" last="McNair"].  McNair backed off just a half-step, but Eursher needed less to rise up and make an uncontested top-of-the-key three-pointer.  The scoring versality was silly.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1019408" first="Hayden" last="Ledbetter"] (Lausanne) -</strong> </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1012005" first="Isaiah" last="Davis"] (Brentwood Academy) -</strong> Played alongside Brock Vice in a dream lineup.  As a compliment to Vice, Davis was allowed him to play his more natural 3/4.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1029818" first="Trey" last="Morrow"] (Brentwood Academy) -</strong> </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1125602" first="Andre" last="McClellan"] (Brentwood Academy) -</strong></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1140813" first="Ahmad" last="Nowell"] (Houston) - </strong></p> <p>https://twitter.com/JDuncan4265/status/1408974933980594176?s=20</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Team Columbia</h2> <p><strong>Isaiah Regular (Memphis Overton)</strong></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1034557" first="Josh" last="Holloway"] - </strong>Holloway will always be the smallest or among the smallest players on every court he steps on.  Saturday, Holloway brought cleverness and poise.  He casually, perhaps obviously, pushed a mass of defenders down three feet on the weakside, anticipating the ball rotation.  Perhaps because they were bigger players the officials didn’t even notice, but when the ball did rotate Holloway’s team had plenty of room around the arc to operate and consider a shot.  After he got past the first level, on another possession, Holloway slowed down with his man on his back now.  It gave him more time to peruse and consider options while still eliminating one defender from his picture.  Holloway did not play above the rim, but certainly can get off the deck and authoritatively score.  He must get stronger to maximize his chances in the lane.  Defenders will only get bigger as he ascends the basketball ladder.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1021772" first="Kristian" last="Spencer"] (Whitehaven)</strong></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1224054" first="Trent" last="McNair"] (Brentwood Academy) </strong></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1029090" first="Lukas" last="Walls"] (Knox Webb) -</strong> Camp settings can be tricky for some players to shine.  Lukas did not command the ball enough, but more problematic his teammates did not get him the ball.  You will see a lot of me-first ball at showcase events and Walls is accustomed to a Knox Webb system that keeps everyone involved.  Floor spacing is huge for Webb and Walls found himself watching too often simply because his teammates did not include him.  Walls is much better than he was able to display in the afternoon game versus <em>Team Red.</em></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1122552" first="Connor" last="Martin"] (Heritage) - </strong>A little stiff on defense.  Connor got caught guarding [player_tooltip player_id="1025784" first="Elijah" last="Bredwood"] when <em>Team Columbia</em> faced <em>Team Red.</em>  It did not go well.  Bredwood is an explosive guard and Martin is not capable of checking the speedier guards on the perimeter just yet.  Martin’s strength remains catch-and-shoot.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1039211" first="Alex" last="Hyder"] (Cleveland) - </strong></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1140764" first="Jaye" last="Nash"] (Briarcrest Christian) - </strong></p> <p><em>Follow <a href="https://twitter.com/andrewforce8">@AndrewForce8.</a></em></p>
