He's a good finisher around the rim, powering through contact but still having a soft touch on finishes. His ability to get downhill with quick moves and power led to several 20+ point games.</p> <p><strong><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/05/Devin-Smith.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1469875" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/05/Devin-Smith-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>G - [player_tooltip player_id="1300740" first="Devin" last="Smith"] - Excel Basketball</strong></p> <p>Smith was one of the best pull-up shooters in the field. The 5'10 guard spent his time on the floor, creating separation with quick movements and getting to his spots. He's a quick guard that can hit shots in the midrange, and beyond the arc while using his speed to attack passing lanes.</p> <p><strong><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/05/Chris-Levy.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-1469886 alignright" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/05/Chris-Levy-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>[player_tooltip player_id="1163372" first="Chris" last="Levy"] - NEB Elite</strong></p> <p>Levy used his athleticism to put on a show in the paint. The 5'11 guard scored above the rim on the break, attacked the rim in the halfcourt, and averaged 8 trips to the free-throw line each game. His athletic burst made defensive plays in transition.</p> <p><strong>W - [player_tooltip player_id="1091930" first="Trevone" last="Palmer"] - Auburn Raptors</strong></p> <p>Athletic 6'3 and ready to finish everything around the basket, Palmer was a walking double-double. His length and bounce made him one of the best off ball scorers among the field. He still needs to add some skill to his game, but with an athletic advantage and nose for cutting to the rim, he separated himself this weekend.</p> <p><strong><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/05/Jamarcus-Brown-1.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-1469887 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/05/Jamarcus-Brown-1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>F - Jamarcus Brown - Team Amore</strong></p> <p>Brown is a high upside wing that flashed skills and production. He's an athletic 6'4 wing that handles the ball well in space, knocks down threes, and throws down big dunks in transition. His build and skill level helped him become the leading scorer on an undefeated team.</p> <p>Honorable Mentions:</p> <p><strong>Dylan McCloud - Jax Stangs</strong></p> <p><strong>Octavious Lawson Jr - No Sleep Sports</strong></p> <p><strong>Thomas Cole - NEB Elite</strong></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="2258162" first="Elijah" last="Thomas"] - Auburn Raptors</strong></p> <p><strong>Paul Walthall - Excel Basketball</strong></p> <p><strong>Xavier Ferguson - LA Broncos</strong></p>
