<p>Prep Hoops Missouri takes a look a group of excellent point guards that we watched during the weekend at the Prep Hoops Live event in Kansas City.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/EE6DE5C4-0767-4768-A5CD-B8FE46E68928.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1438943" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/EE6DE5C4-0767-4768-A5CD-B8FE46E68928-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1315454" first="Isaiah" last="Bonaparte"] (Columbia Supreme 2024): The 5'10” point guard from Hickman has quickness and deft ball handling skills. He was very difficult to keep out of the lane as he could blow by defenders or drop them off with escape moves. He's a very intelligent floor leader who can find open teammates or can get a bucket on the drive or the pull up jumper.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/7AA6ED7F-3CC8-4B99-BC83-CBFC3BAD75D0.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1438088" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/7AA6ED7F-3CC8-4B99-BC83-CBFC3BAD75D0-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a><br /> Charlie Nett (Mo Thunder 2023): A 6'0 point guard from Troy who plays a very solid overall floor game. He was hitting 3-pointers while also delivering good passes and making good decisions with the basketball. He is strong on the dribble and he handles pressure well.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/FEB84D08-5DF6-44AF-AF67-B4A1899B14F8.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1437438" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/FEB84D08-5DF6-44AF-AF67-B4A1899B14F8-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1424415" first="Andrew" last="Moore"] (Gateway-Knights 2025): A smooth 5'11 2025 point guard from Troy who plays with excellent control and a nice feel for the game. He handles pressure well and he doesn't let himself get sped up. When he isn't setting up his teammates, he can knock down perimeter shots.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/885E0EB9-0A42-4C2A-AAB1-E61BA91869D9.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1438949" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/885E0EB9-0A42-4C2A-AAB1-E61BA91869D9-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1170275" first="Zach" last="Henry"] (Mid Mo Elite 2023): A 6'0 combo guard from Blair Oaks who can really shoot the ball from downtown. In the game I watched, I was also impressed with his passing and decision making. <br /> <br /> </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/4505B2CC-47B3-4EA0-AB65-761966FB1319.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1438950" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/4505B2CC-47B3-4EA0-AB65-761966FB1319-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1161313" first="Caden" last="Stoecklein"] (All-Missouri Attack 2023): A 6'0 point guard from Maryville who is a tough lefty with a high basketball IQ as a coach's kid. He handles pressure well and can get his team into offense. He delivers pinpoint passes from multiple angles and he can also get a bucket.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/DA4CD35D-0C59-473C-A258-A4721B369210.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1438952" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/DA4CD35D-0C59-473C-A258-A4721B369210-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>Isaiah Giles (Chicago Demons): I was very impressed with this 5'10 guard in the game that I watched. He is very quick and he has a strong body that is built for contact. He could score on  dribble penetration and pull up jumpers on the move. He was one of the more impressive on-ball defenders that I watched all over the weekend.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/D21FC9D1-4659-4854-AF4F-3A1C78F6D01A.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1438959" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/D21FC9D1-4659-4854-AF4F-3A1C78F6D01A-300x262.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="262" /></a></p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1424410" first="Kobe" last="Anderson"] (Gateway Knights 2025): A 6'0 guard from Fort Zumwalt North who is a good athlete who plays with a little flair to his game. I am impressed with his ability to attack the basket and score in traffic. He's very creative off the dribble and has solid quickness to go along with it.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/B06A4B1C-1C84-4E9D-8A9A-4CB698DC271B.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1438956" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/B06A4B1C-1C84-4E9D-8A9A-4CB698DC271B-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p>Jonny Jordan (Gateway Knights 2025 UA): A talented 2026 guard who is playing a year up at 15U, but looked very comfortable and quite composed as a floor leader. He can play at his own speed and he has an excellent hesi move to break down defenders. He can shoot the ball well and find open teammates.</p>
