I cant wait to see what the do during the remainder of the tournament, as well as the growth they will begin to show over the next few months!
Dominic Martinez 2025 6’1 Colorado Prep School (New Mexico D1 2025)
Dominic is a high level guard who has the ability to not only score from all three levels of the floor but create any look for his team. He runs the show in the half court court and thrives in transition and the full court. He has all the tools to become a valuable weapon at the next level with his ability to do it all on the offensive end of the floor. He scores in bunches off the dribble from the midrange and with his relentless attack of the rim. Once he has the defense on its heels he can rise up from the three point line or the midrange. I was impressed with his overall court awareness on this end of the court, he felt the help defender come over and calmly picked apart the defense by making the right swing pass to his open shooters on the outside. His ability to creatively find his big man with slick dump off passes while also making nasty kick out passes to his shooters was absolutely deadly. Martinez was easily one of the best players on the court during the first night of competition at the PrepHoops Easter Classic.

Javori Washington 2025 6’1 Cypress Falls High School, TX (1 Dream 1 Team Sports 2025)
Javori is an aggressive guard who can lock up his defender and finish through the chest of any opponent in the paint. He is elite at turning defense into offense and finishing on the fast break. In transition, he is a force to be reckoned with, he attacks straight down the floor and forces the defense to react. He is good at waiting for just the right moment to find his teammates wide open cutting to the basket after drawing the attention of their defender. His relentlessness with a live dribble and constant penetration allows him to live in the paint, and create countless opportunities for his teammates. I was very impressed with his ability to not only hunt for his own shot but create layups from his dump off passes after drawing a second defender, or an accurate pass out to his shooters. In the half court, he is a real weapon out of the pick and roll through his ability to tightly turn the corner and forcing the second defender to make a decision. He calmly makes the right reads time and time again to get his teammates open looks.

Macaulin Rollison 2025 5’10 Sulphur Springs High School, TX (Dream Leaders Elite 2025)
Macaulin is a sniper from the three point line and is a real threat to score off the bounce from all three levels of the floor at any given moment. He showed an ability to stretch the floor and force the defense to the coveted fourth level that is becoming more and more deadly in today’s game. He is great at using his handle to create space and enough separation to quickly get his shot off. I was very impressed at his ability to score off the dribble in bunches, his consistent shot making brought his team back into a tight game during the first night of the tournament. He is not just a shooter however, he is crafty in the lane and showed an ability to evade contact and hang in the air to finish at the rim. He showed off his shooting touch in the paint and midrange with soft floaters over bigger competition. I was very impressed with his relentlessness in attacking the basket, it truly opened up his shooting from beyond the arc and allowed him to hurt the defense in a plethora of ways.

Sion Cleveland 2025 6’0 Memorial High School, TX (1 Dream 1 Team Sports 2025)
Sion is a crafty point guard who is great at manipulating the defense within the half court with his penetration and shiftiness with a live dribble. He has a quick handle with a real ability to create separation from his opponent with ease. He is great at using his eyes to make the defense react to his crossovers that much more. He had a plethora of crafty passes to his teammates that allowed them to quickly get a shot up after the space he gave them by not even looking at them when he makes the read. He is elite out of the triple threat, and his threat to score from the outside allows him to keep a foot planted and really get his opponent to bite on his jump fakes. As soon as they fly by, he can calmly rise up and take a shot out of the midrange or attack the basket. His ability to score off the dribble was very impressive, and it looks like the game is already slowed down for him.
Evan Goodwin 2025 5’11 Jenks High School, OK (Wolfpack 2025)
Evan is a skilled shooting guard who can make high level reads in the full and half court. He made great passes to his teammates in transition after poking the ball free and coming up with steals. He has great defensive instincts and knows when to time up his opponent to poke the ball free, he seems to wait for the ball to leave the ball handlers hand and then he attacks it. He has long arms that force his opponent to really work to try to get around him on the defensive end of the floor. I was very impressed with his ability to create offense for himself and his team in transition. He stayed in the right lane to space the floor when he did not have the ball and lead his opponents to the rim with his passes.
