Dawson is going to be a steal for the right team. He’s an incredibly athletic wing that needs to develop his handle and shot to reach his full potential. Until then, you’ll get a guy who looks like he’s been shot out of a cannon when he crashes the boards or drives to the rim. Dawson defends multiple positions with his physical tools and has a ton of upside.
Anthony Martinez
Martinez had one of the best shots in the gym. He’s a consistent catch-and-shoot option you can’t leave open in the corner. The 6’3 guard is a good off ball defender that creates deflections.
Josiah Harding
Harding lived in the paint. He’s a crafty guard that uses ball fakes and his handle to get where he wants on the court. He’s a good athlete in transition and has a nice finishing package in the halfcourt. Harding is adept at drawing fouls.
Seals have one of the highest ceilings in the county. The athleticism and size for a 6’4 off guard give him the feel of a high or mid-major guard. He flexed his shotmaking with tough turnaround jumpers and wing threes. He’s an exceptional athlete on the move that can finish oops and punch dunks on the break. His frame makes him a solid defender, and he has the tools to erase plays at this level.
Asad is a big body shotmaking off guard. At 6’4, you stick him anywhere around the perimeter to space the floor. He creates his shots on limited dribbles. Improving his handle will be the difference in the opportunities he’ll receive to play at the next level.
Branch is a wing that can do a bit of everything. This setting showed how good of a rebounder he is for his position. He’s a true swiss army knife that defends multiple positions. His IQ and effort level have earned him low major offers this morning.
