6’8 F Reece Dent || UBC Elite || 2023 ||
When Reece would get the ball in the paint and get quick touches paired up with some quick moves he was efficient and in that pick n’ roll he would do a very fundamental job sealing the player he was screening and getting great position creating a big target for his to receiving a pass near him. He does a great job going after those passes and keeping it high and finishing. He is active in the post looking for position always a threat without the ball. He was finishing through contact all week. His turn in face is a work in progress but he was good when he did use it and that footwork continues to get better.
6’8 F Rashaud Marshall || Next Page Force || 2023 ||
At first glance you wonder who is on this kid and after a bit you realize this kid is a big time player who is a Top 100 talent. He has committed to Ole Miss and he was a high flyer all week. This kid is running the floor to ruin someones day by posterizing him. He was the recipient of a lot of good passes in transition as he was rebounding at a very high rate. really like how he is not hesitating on those kick out 15-foot jumpers because he will be getting those a lot at the next level. He could really develop into an elite stretch big that can fill it up from the perimeter but also attack as well. Mid-post face-up game is outstanding.
Kevin Patton Jr. || Dream Vision Adidas 3SSB || 2023 ||
This kid is box-office. With his size and length he really attacks the rim with a lot of force. When he does have an opening he can fly and when there is a defender waiting for him the lane he has no problem trying to rise up and posterize him either. You need to respect his driving ability as he does have some solid moves off the bounce and he does get some space and he can shoot the ball very well. Really like how he can swiftly switch directions. This kid has picked up some solid offers to this point. Look for him to continue to rise. He was one of the reasons Dream Vision made it to the 3SSB Open Championship at the 17U level.
6’3 PG Mikel Brown Jr. || Southeast Elite Adidas 3SSB || 2025 ||
This kid is wild. He uses every inch of-the floor and he is just at another level with his IQ. Hesi is on another level as he can shake defenders off of him in the open floor and in traffic. He has so many moves at the rim and variations of his floater are too nice. If you leave him open in the perimeter he will make you pay. He is on a level where you basically have to pick your poison. He is going to be part of the next generation at the 2025 graduating class on the Adidas Circuit.
