His sound fundamentals enable him to excel in all facets of the game. He made shots, delivered passes and didn’t make a lot of mistakes. He has a smooth looking shot, either from the mid-range or 3-point line.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/2DACD5A9-C1AC-48FF-A738-6CEA4E0B0519.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1221260" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/2DACD5A9-C1AC-48FF-A738-6CEA4E0B0519-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="984518" first="Brennan" last="Lovette"] 6’6" DeSmet: The 2022 forward played his usual solid all-around game. The ball doesn’t stick in his hands. He’s either going to make the open shot, deliver the right pass or dribble with a purpose.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/D441E2FB-6480-43B8-AC3A-695C8AD48BBB.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1221268" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/D441E2FB-6480-43B8-AC3A-695C8AD48BBB-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1045828" first="Deuce" last="Roberts"] 6’6" St. Michael the Archangel: I was looking forward to seeing this 2022 guard in person and I wasn’t disappointed. He’s very smooth with the ball in his hands, whether he’s getting by defenders off the bounce or pulling up for jumpers. He’s a natural scorer with good ball handling and passing skills.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/DA415B75-A10A-4971-877B-BB8619C0259A.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1221270" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/DA415B75-A10A-4971-877B-BB8619C0259A-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>Trasean White 6’1" Confluence Prep: The 2022 point guard was one of the best in the camp at dribble penetration. Defenders had a hard time keeping him out of the lane as he used his quickness for blow-bys and strength to split double teams. He was a very good finisher at the rim.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/FFB9A1FE-5535-4DA4-B1DF-2395B53FBA69.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1221274" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/FFB9A1FE-5535-4DA4-B1DF-2395B53FBA69-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="993528" first="Joshua" last="Talton"] 6’0" Monroe City: The 2022 guard played with a lot of energy on Saturday. He was constantly on the attack and probing for any openings in the defense. He didn’t mind the contact and he worked well in tight spaces and finished well.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/FEBF69C8-B893-4E37-87BF-9E04BE1B116B.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1221276" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/FEBF69C8-B893-4E37-87BF-9E04BE1B116B-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="984948" first="Dampier" last="Evans"] 6’6" DuBourg: The 2022 power forward was a workhorse around the basket throughout the day. He pounded the glass as he used his strength while staying active.</p>
