Early December Stars (South Florida)

<p>The South Florida season is underway. Which South Florida prospects have been lighting things up through four or five games?</p> <p>Let’s take a look...</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="829477" first="Kevin" last="Pazmino"] - <em>Cypress Bay</em></p> <p>2022 [player_tooltip player_id="829477" first="Kevin" last="Pazmino"] is off to a fantastic start for the Lightning. The 6-foot-5 guard has shot 51 percent from deep through four games. This comes as little surprise to me as Pazmino is highly efficient. He can put the ball on the floor and move around on the perimeter. For whatever reason, his name has just begun to surface. He scored 25 points in a victory over <strong>Miami</strong> <strong>Country Day</strong>. 5-foot-10 guard <strong>Maxwell Gordon</strong> is another player off to a good start. Gordon is averaging 12.2 points and 5.4 assists per game while shooting 41 percent from deep. I believe a high-academic D3 would be happy to have him.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="955795" first="Gabriel" last="Gaspard"]</strong> - <em>North Miami</em></p> <p>2022 [player_tooltip player_id="955795" first="Gabriel" last="Gaspard"] has played well for his new team. The 6-foot-2 guard spent last season with <strong>Dr.</strong> <strong>Krop</strong>. Gaspard had 24 points and ten rebounds against Hialeah. Against <strong>Somerset Academy,</strong> he scored 19 points and six rebounds. Against <strong>American</strong>, Gaspard had 21 points and six assists. Those are three solid games from him. Gaspard is a solid rebounder and knows how score around the rim.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1301788" first="Dante" last="Allen"] - <em>Riviera Prep </em></p> <p>2025 [player_tooltip player_id="1301788" first="Dante" last="Allen"] has been solid for the Bulldogs in his freshman season. The 6-foot-5 guard can shoot in the halfcourt or transition. I’ve been impressed with Allen’s poise and confidence through a handful of games. He does not seem fazed. <strong>Miami</strong> has shown interest.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="829402" first="Houston" last="Culpepper"] - Stranahan</p> <p>2022 [player_tooltip player_id="829402" first="Houston" last="Culpepper"] is averaging 14.8 points and 9.3 rebounds (4.8 offensive) through four games. The 6-foot-4, 225-pound forward scored 14 points and grabbed nine rebounds against <strong>Wellington</strong> at the Kreul Classic. In addition, two of his four games have been double-doubles. Culpepper has been efficient around the rim. I like that he plays physical and never gives up on 50/50 balls. You can see that from his number on the offensive glass. I think Culpepper is on a mission this season.</p> <p><strong><em>For any South Florida Prep Hoops news or information...please contact Michael Costeines @Steins_23 on Instagram or follow him on Twitter @Mungertown_Mike23.</em></strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
