Seniors who have stood out this Spring

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1284526" first="Derik" last="Pranger"] – RoughRiders Give</strong></p> <p>I am surprised Pranger does not have more looks. He is lights out. At the Top of the Rockies tournament in Denver, he was the best shooter in the gym regardless of size, Then to add the 6’9 frame on top of that makes him dangerous. He has a great feel for the game. In a tough matchup versus the Colorado Hawks where the gym was packed, he always delivered when his team needed him. I expect him to do that in college arenas soon.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="759275" first="Quis" last="Davis"] – Colorado Hawks</strong></p> <p>In the games I watched Davis play, he was a tremendous floor general/distributor, but when the Hawks needed a spark, he would drive down the lane and finish through contact. Davis plays with so much heart, which is reflected in his motor. Diving for loose balls late in game, intercepting passes, and even meeting opponents at the rim.  I watched the Colorado Hawks without Davis and with him on the floor, and they looked like two completely different teams. The energy that Davis brings is that infectious.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1317571" first="Cheikh" last="Sow"] – RoughRiders Give</strong></p> <p>Sow is a matchup nightmare, and that is going to be on full display at Cloud County CC. As a 6’7 point guard, there was no one in the gym that could guard him. Even at his length, he still has a masterful handle. He also uses his body positioning very well to shield the ball and facilitate good passes. My favorite thing about Sow is his explosiveness and long wingspan.  He is almost impossible to block. When a post would take away one side of the rim, Sow would always adjust midair and lay in a reverse. Sow is a truly special talent, and D1 programs need to follow his career with the Thunderbirds.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="759282" first="Taveon" last="Long"] – Knights Elite</strong></p> <p>Teveon Long might have been one of my favorite players to watch. The lefty is a 3-level scorer, which is much easier to see in the AAU setting. He can shoot, and he has a quick first step, which he uses fearlessly attack the rack. He had multiple in-game dunks through traffic.  One of my favorite plays of the tournament was when he was hacked by [player_tooltip player_id="921100" first="Baye" last="Fall"] without a whistle, and then he hustled back to strip the ball away and reclaim possession. Long is a college prospect, and he has been showcasing that this spring for Knights Elite.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1053581" first="Aguir" last="Dawam"] – Knights Elite</strong></p> <p>Watching his state final run and then watching him on the AAU circuit, I think that he may be one of the best centers the state has to offer. Long and athletic. I saw Dawam multiple times disrupt or block shots, beat everyone down the floor, and finish above the rim. Dawam has a fantastic motor, and he could give you that for 30+ minutes a game if needed. Dawam is also skilled with the ball in his hands. He has a solid jump hook that he can go to. He can also spin under post defenders and pin them, so that he can dunk off vertical. From behind the arc, he is capable of knocking down a spot-up three.</p>
