Top 250 Expo: Top Combo Guards/Wings

<p>As part of the Prep Hoops 250 Expo that was held at Gold Crown Fieldhouse in Lakewood, CO. this past Sunday I was able to catch some amazing play. Here is a list of my top combo guards/wings from the Expo.:</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/Screen-Shot-2021-09-13-at-11.34.37-PM.png"><img class="wp-image-1282482 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/Screen-Shot-2021-09-13-at-11.34.37-PM-249x300.png" alt="" width="261" height="314" /></a>        [player_tooltip player_id="1284543" first="Anthony" last="Harris Jr"].- Senior 6’5" Wing/Forward- Smoky Hill High School</p> <p>As you can see from the picture that was taken at the Expo. Harris Jr. can flat out fly! In that respect that is what stood out most to me, but I don’t just mean his ability to sky. He has an explosive first step and can blow by defenders at will. Keep in mind he was doing this against top level talent. With his quick first step and his ability to finish above the rim Harris Jr. is a tremendous talent. I’ve heard through the grapevine the he already has some D1 football offers, and that does not surprise me at all. Whether he plays both sports at the college level your guess is as good as mine. What I do know is Harris Jr. has the talent to do both. He still has some work to do in terms of being a consistent shooter and decision-maker, but with his athletic ability any coach would be wise to take a shot on him. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="618882" first="Langston" last="Reynolds"]-Senior 6’4" Combo Guard-Colorado Prep    <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/73-Langston-Reynolds.jpg"><img class="wp-image-1281596 alignright" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/73-Langston-Reynolds-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="348" height="232" /></a>      </p> <p>What I liked most about Langston’s game is that he is an all-round player. He plays very under control and is a smart basketball player. He can finish at the basket, plays defense, dishes out assists, and can knock down the 3 ball. I’d like to see him be more physical and explosive when needed. There are also times that he seemed to not be as aggressive as I’d like but that could have been a product of playing with new players for the first time. Overall Langston has the talent and ability to play at the next level. Really looking forward to watching him play in the Adidas series against top-level talent this year and to see him continue to develop.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/71-Brock-Mishak.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1281597 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/71-Brock-Mishak-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a>  [player_tooltip player_id="759281" first="Brock" last="Mishak"]- Senior 6’4" Combo Guard- Fossil Ridge High School</p> <p>Mishak is a very solid basketball player. From a coach’s perspective, he is the kind of player you can always count on. He is also a very well-rounded player. He can handle point guard duties at times, he defends, he dishes out assists, he is physical and has the body to add some muscle, and can know down the 3 ball. In addition to being a highly-skilled player he is a hustler. When you combine athletic ability, skill, and the fact that he outworks everyone on the floor it’s hard not to like Mishak’s game. Keep an eye on him heading into his senior year because my gut feeling is that he will be playing on the next level a year from now!</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/IMG_1278.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1283392 alignright" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/IMG_1278-300x296.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="296" /></a>  [player_tooltip player_id="618886" first="Dylan" last="Sanders"]-Senior 6’4" Combo Guard- Colorado Prep.</p> <p>Dylan is a multi-faceted player. He has the ability to run the point, play shooting guard, or the wing. He, like his fellow Colorado Prep. teammate [player_tooltip player_id="618882" first="Langston" last="Reynolds"], has good size for his position and is oftentimes bigger than the players who are guarding him. Dylan oftentimes takes advantage of that size mismatch and can finish in the paint, above the rim, is explosive, and has the ability to knock down the outside shot as well. I’m looking forward to watching him develop over the next year and to see where he ends up playing his college ball.</p> <p>Cheikh Soiu- 6’6" Wing/Forward- Colorado Prep.                       <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/119-Cheikh-Soiu.jpg"><img class="wp-image-1281570 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/119-Cheikh-Soiu-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="314" height="209" /></a></p> <p>Soiu has tremendous length. As most coaches know you can’t length. Soiu uses his length to finish in the paint, above the rim and on the defensive end of the floor. He is a problem for any team because of that length. I’d like to see him add some muscle to his skinny frame, but once he does, and if he can continue to develop his outside shot, he has a chance to be a special player. I’m looking forward to watching his development this upcoming season. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
