Prep Hoops Live : East’s Friday Standouts Part 1

<p>Friday night at Truman High School did not disappoint. Prospects were showcasing their talents in full force. Here is part 1 of my Friday standouts.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1289038" first="Noah" last="Ojielo"] | 6’1 G | Chapman Basketball Academy 2024 Black McKay/Cirillo</p> <p>Ojielo is a vey consistent shooter off the catch. He’s got a great handle and feel for the game. Had some smooth dimes to teammates on the drive as well.</p> <p>Tim Williams | 6’0 G | D1 Indiana 2024-2</p> <p>I really liked how poised Williams is with the ball in his hands. He’s got a lot of intangibles on the offensive end. Very shifty point guard, great change of speed and direction, smooth passer, great touch at the rim, and he can shoot it. He’s a pesky on ball defender and can go up and grab a board if needed. Ran the floor well and had a 8 or 10 point run by himself in the second half.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1295326" first="Kamon" last="Washington"] | 6’0 G | D1 Indiana 2024-2</p> <p>Washington is a crazy athletic, bouncy wing. He’s got a variety of finishes but absolutely loves bodying defenders on the power layup. He finishes well through contact and will not hesitate to finish above defenders. He’s an aggressive rebounder and will push the tempo out of grabbing a board.</p> <p>Caeden Twedell | 5’10 G | B&amp;B Academy 2024 White</p> <p>Twedell has a very polished game on both ends of the floor. Offensive footwork was fantastic, he’s got a quick jab and rip through, his drop steps on attacking closeouts gives him that extra burst of speed. On the defensive end he was great on ball. Real nice lateral quickness and was light on his feet. Verbal leader on both ends of the floor and demonstrated what a floor general is.</p> <p>Tareek Galadima | 5’11 G | D1 Indiana 2024-2</p> <p>Another great player from a solid D1 Indiana team. Galadima was awesome to watch. He was all over the place on both ends of the floor. He can slash at a high slip and can get creative at the rim in traffic. He knocked down the open three when he had a shot. On the defensive end he did not give the offense much room to breath. Active hands on defense whether he was on ball or help side. Very high energy player who seemed to spark his team whenever he was on the floor.</p>
