Throughout this past week Nov 15-20 PH was in the gym evaluating players in scrimmage games as they prepare for the upcoming season. It was the first real action for some teams, while others were missing players from football. On Tuesday Bellarmine College Prep hosted a five team scrimmage with Palo Alto, Half Moon Bay, Palma, and St. Joes of Notre Dame. It’s early but here’s a few standouts from the scrimmage. Theoron Brouillette of Of Bellarmine 6’3 SG 2022. Brouillette played a solid game, he was involved on both ends. He has good movement on the court using screens and cuts to get himself open for shots. He’s a good handler in half court using the dribble to get to the basket on hard driving finishes for baskets. He makes good decisions with the ball. Nebiyu Teklemariam 6’4 G/F of St. Joe’s Notre Dame 2022 Teklemariam was the most athletic of the group. He has decent handles away from the basket, and good bounce when close to the rim to finish. He scored with some nifty drives to the basket and hit a few 3’s. He’s long and defends on the perimeter and the post. He’ll be one of the better players on this team. [player_tooltip player_id="1254105" first="Drew" last="Dorwin"] 6’1 CG of Half Moon Bay 2023 Dorwin looked like he was in mid season form, attacking the rim and finishing with nice moves to score in transition. He’ll be one of the main contributors on this team spending time at both guard positions. He can score off the ball, and run the offense as needed. [player_tooltip player_id="1253221" first="Jaeden" last="Hutchinson"] 6’7 f of Half Moon Bay 2024 Hutchinson will take up time in the post as he begins his first full season on the varsity. He’ll help the team defending in the post, and rebounding. He’ll score inside with his length, he’s getting stronger and has a good touch around the rim. He has some work to do, but he’ll be a plus. Sabastian Chandler 6’1 CG of Palo Alto 2022 Chandlers a good ball handler looking to capitalize when he can. He does a good job of running the teams offense when called upon to do so. He’s a versatile player looking to shoot his 3 when playing off the ball using screens or spotting up on the wings. Ryan Lykken 6’5 SG/F of Palo Alto 2022 Lykken will help on the boards as well as guard bigger players in the post area. He’ll handle the ball on the perimeter, and in transition. He does a good job of filling the lanes in transition. He’ll look to hit the 3-point shot on the perimeter, and coming off screens. [player_tooltip player_id="947388" first="Nate" last="Jean Pierre"] 5’ 9 G of Palma 2022 Pierre is looking aggressive on the offensive side of the ball as he enters his senior season and looks to score more for this team. He’s a quality PG up top. He has good quickness and a first step to attack defenders going baseline and on the perimeter. He has a floater in the paint and a good pull up jumper. He has good lateral movement to defend ball handlers up the court.
