On November 5th and one game on November 6th I attended the AZ Compass Classic in Chandler, AZ. I also attended one game on November 2nd with AZ Compass Green and South Pointe.   Here were some of the senior standouts of the games I viewed for the week which includes the talented home team: [player_tooltip player_id="954224" first="Dylan" last="Andrews"] AZ Compass Prep (Pictured) An easy scorer is a better passer then he gets credited with. He changes speeds better then most and will hesi and go to the basket. He can hit the catch-3 and has speed in the open court with a tight and shifty handle. The UCLA commit is tough, [player_tooltip player_id="826994" first="Adrame" last="Diongue"] AZ Compass Prep A top of the line shot blocker and rim runner. He gobbles up rebounds in his area and runs like a deer His post footwork is improving and he has the rare ability to defend out on the perimeter and be a force inside the paint. There are not many better post players left in the entire West Coast. [player_tooltip player_id="1227671" first="Chance" last="Westry"] AZ Compass Prep One of the top natural scorers in the state has good body control to score it around traffic. He can hit the catch-3 and create his own offense from inside the paint. He makes a big difference and will take his talent to Auburn next year. [player_tooltip player_id="701245" first="Mekhi" last="Mason"] AZ Compass Prep A bigger guard can play on or off the ball. He is calm and skilled and plays with his own pace to his game. He is a good passer and hits the 3 off the catch. He will give valuable minutes off the bench to the high powered local team. In my opinion, Mason was the biggest steal of the West Coast signing with Rice. He will be a day-1 starter. [player_tooltip player_id="889562" first="Colin" last="Smith"] AZ Compass Prep A face-up forward with high skill level. He has an easy stroke to the 3pt line and he can be a good offensive rebounder and score on put backs. His rebounding, shot making and toughness will help the Dragons in a long season. He will be heading to Vanderbilt next year. [player_tooltip player_id="787678" first="Lamar" last="Washington"] AZ Compass Prep Another top tier guard is a powerful downhill scorer. His skill level keeps improving from the 3pt line and he seemingly bounces off his opponents. He is a very good rebounder for a guard and will push the tempo up the court for his team. One of the best unsigned local guards left. [player_tooltip player_id="1006964" first="Terrance" last="Dixon"] Bella Vista Prep One of the top shot blockers is getting a lot stronger. He has freaky bounce to throw it down high above the crowd and grabs rebounds in and out of his area. He transferred over from Desert Vista and he should help BVP upfront immediately.
