He utilizes his strength, girth, and big strong hands to be an interior force. Tobe has the potential to get stronger when he enters college and integrate himself into a college program.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/Desmond-Claude.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1237905" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/Desmond-Claude-300x261.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="261" /></a><br /> <br /> ’22 [player_tooltip player_id="1081793" first="Desmond" last="Claude"], 6’5" PG, Putnam Science - Desmond is a powerful point guard who possesses a unique skill set and continues to add offers. During the summer I sat with a Big East program at an event in Atlantic City and they were impressed with his ability to control and balance the floor. His shot-making ability shouldn’t be overlooked as well.<br /> <br /> </p> [caption id="attachment_1087594" align="alignnone" width="300"]<a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2020/11/Avery-Brown-2.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1087594" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2020/11/Avery-Brown-2-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a> Photo: [player_tooltip player_id="1081781" first="Avery" last="Brown"][/caption] <p><br /> ’22 [player_tooltip player_id="1081781" first="Avery" last="Brown"], 6’3" PG, Northfield Mount Hermon - Rumors are Avery is down to deciding between Colorado and Nebraska. Each program will benefit from his steady play and offensive prowess. Avery has size and strength at the point guard position to step in and play right away.<br /> <br /> ’22 [player_tooltip player_id="1046820" first="Joel" last="Baez"], 6’4" SG, Stepinac - Joel is a lively two-way athletic guard. He has the potential to be a defense stopper because of his ability to defend multiple positions at a high rate. Joel finishes well in transition and connects from the outside. He’ll quickly find his way into a rotation at the next level.<br /> <br /> <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1310499" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/03/Sam-Gibbs-Stepinac-crop-1788x1174-1634577664-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /><br /> <br /> ’22 [player_tooltip player_id="1125584" first="Samuel" last="Gibbs"], 6’1" PG, Stepinac - Sam is a steady point guard who protects the ball and consistently makes good decisions. The 4.0 student is prepared for college-level school work and his determination will carry to the basketball court. I believe his best basketball is still ahead of him.<br /> <br /> </p>
