The Hustle Region Circuit consists of AAU Programs from California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Utah, Montana, Idaho, Colorado, and New Mexico. The circuit features 10 stops including the Hustle Region Final in Irvine July 15th – 17th. For stop number 9 we head to Atlanta Georgia for our certified event. The event featured several players with motors that just wouldn’t stop. In this article, we take a look at the top High Motor guys from the event.
Anish Ramlall 6’3 SG Wear Out The Nets 2023 – I really like the energy that Ramiall brought to the team WOTN was sneaky talented and his ability to be a good two-way player fit right in with the club. His wiggle is underrated as he was able to be just shifty enough to defeat defenders in 1 v 1 situations. Without a doubt, his motor was his best skill as he won a ton of 50/50s, battled for offensive rebounds, and was the first to the floor several times.
Levi Rubin 6’3 SG Colorado Titans 2023 (featured image) – A lot of Rubin’s motor can be seen on the offensive end. He attacks the basket relentlessly and has a knack for making quick stop and pop shots. His defensive effort, however, is what lands him on the list. He’s active and all over the floor. I especially like the fact that even when playing a 2-3, Rubin is an active hands, pest on the defensive end.
Bennett Olujic 6’7 PF BDH Elite 2023 – Olujic didn’t have his best offensive week, however, he still competed. I thought he battled hard for offensive rebounds, which allowed him an opportunity at some chippy buckets. He ran the floor hard and did a good job of playing with aggression when challenged on the defensive end.
Shaun Arnold 6’5 SF EG10 2023 – Arnold plays with intensity and it shows up mostly on the defensive end of the ball. He is active on ball and plays the passing lanes well. The forward also mixed it up under the boards, coming away with more than his share of in-traffic rebounds. The type of guy that plays the game right up to the line.
Ryan Erikson 6’9 PF North Dakota Phenoms 2023 – Erikson can also be labeled a glue guy. His ability on the back line of the Phenoms defense was tremendous. Erikson protected the rim at a high level and was also a terrific charge taker. He showed good team leadership as well, being vocal with both his encouragement and instructions.
Eli Robinson 6’6 PF P.L.U.T.O Prospects 2023 – Robinson’s motor was easy to spot, since he spent so much time sprinting the floor. Along with his rim running ability, he showed active hands, managing to get them on a ton of loose balls, and offensive rebounds. The forward scored a ton of “Look what I found” buckets, as his energy and ability to simply be involved in the play allowed him to have an impact.
