Prep Hoops Live ATL: All- Buckets Team

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">To recap the ATL tournament, we had to reminisce on the best bucket getters we saw during the showcase. Here are the prospects who were cooking whoever attempted to guard them and put on a show in the A. </span> <strong><u><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Aliou Diallo PG/SG 6’0 Colorado Titans</span></u></strong> <span data-preserver-spaces="true">Diallo was one of the more electrifying prospects during his time in Atlanta. As an absolute flame thrower, he was dangerous from beyond the arc and the mid-range. This accuracy from range allowed him to be elite with his pump fakes and attack closeouts with his speed and advanced handle. Diallo was also elite when attacking out of the triple threat and kept defenders guessing with his jab step and shimmy move. Off the bounce, his quick twitch handles allowed him to consistently break down defenders, get space for his jumper, or use his floater to cut down the trees in the paint. With elite speed, handles, and a knock-down jumper, he’s a sure-fire contributor at the next level. </span> <strong><u><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Jeremiah Fears 6’2 Colorado Titans </span></u></strong> <span data-preserver-spaces="true">Fears is simply a problem with the ball in his hands. Showed unlimited range on his jumper and had to be picked up well beyond the arc. Off the dribble, his handles were smooth, and he showed great explosion out of hesitations, putting defenders on their heels. He knows how to attack out of pick and roll and remains aggressive no matter his coverage. Though he can be efficient as a ball-dominant player, he showed an ability to be an accurate shooter off the catch and operated smoothly in off-ball actions. With Fears playing two years above his age, he’s easily en route to being a blue chip prospect and impact player at the next level. </span> https://twitter.com/BallerTV/status/1546647401322217472?s=20&amp;t=nciA4o_Ss5lNozmzpw8J0w <strong><u><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Alijah Adem 6’2 SG/PG Chosen Few 17u</span></u></strong> <span data-preserver-spaces="true">Adem is a combo guard who excels at scoring and showed natural skill and instinct throughout the tournament. He possesses excellent range on his jumper and cooks from the perimeter if no one picks him up. He has an effortless stroke and is an accurate volume shooter from well beyond the arc. He displayed creativity off the bounce and always seemed to get the shot he wanted. With great dribble variety, he can get to his cross-overs, in and outs, step-backs, and generate quality shots outside of the offensive structure. Adem’s nuance with change of pace is apparent with his hesitations, stop and gos, and timing when shifting gears in the half-court- making him unpredictable for the defense to guard.</span> https://twitter.com/PHCircuit/status/1546584413219192833?s=20&amp;t=rJW13eX9Kvp-6dS5DbVE1A <strong><u><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Khalif Bettis 6’5 SG/SF MN Chill  </span></u></strong> <span data-preserver-spaces="true">Bettis is a 3 level scorer that simply gets buckets and uses his size well to attack at all areas of the court. With a pure jumper, his mechanics are smooth and effortless. His great touch from deep and mid-range allowed him to thrive on the perimeter. He shot it off the catch efficiently and actively got to his spots in the mid-range to do damage when defenses ran him off the line. He also took advantage of mismatches in post with solid footwork and touch. Bettis’ efficiency stood out, considering how far he works from the basket. Bettis is a smooth operator who looks ready for the next level. </span> https://twitter.com/KhalifBettis/status/1547627293995982848?s=20&amp;t=UfFvEGILETumOc6VaJzxWw <strong><u><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Kadyn Betts 6’8 SF/SG Pluto Prospects 17u</span></u></strong> <span data-preserver-spaces="true">Betts was arguably the best scorer in the tournament with his combination of size and skill. The 6’8 wing was dominant and represented his state well. With a 43-point performance, it would be blasphemy not to mention him on the list. Betts game is primarily predicated on his jumper. He’s mechanically sound, gets good elevation, has solid release point and follow through, and can catch fire quickly if he sees them go in early. Did a great job of operating off the ball and being accurate as a movement shooter. Used screens well to get open and find shots. Betts can also get to the midrange and rise over the top efficiently. In addition to his prowess on the perimeter, he uses his handles to get to his hot spots, can get crafty at the rim, and get buckets out the post - making him a thorough three-level scorer. </span> https://twitter.com/PHCircuit/status/1547734201604001793?s=20&amp;t=LDzvwjgEVleGScaLBM4mPg
