<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Team [player_tooltip player_id='1578726' first='Xialin' last='Lenoir'] (#3) vs. Team [player_tooltip player_id='1578702' first='Jordan' last='Frison'] (#2)</span></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1578702' first='Jordan' last='Frison'] </strong>threw a beautifully simple lob off the backboard to a trailing <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1578695' first='Jackson' last='Ary']</strong>. Frison's pass appeared casual, but that is one of his feigns. Frison shifts from fast to slow to fast at an elite level. Frison hit two three-pointers in the opening half, both off of his dribble. His court awareness is unmatched statewide. This is a young man coming off a monumental period of improvement, proving he is perhaps on the cusp of another.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1578680' first='Brody' last='Burchard']</strong> (Oakland) -- Good lower body. Balance is impressive at his height and age. Incredibly unselfish. Made a couple of extra passes. Played with Frison effectively in the pick'n'roll.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1578695' first='Jackson' last='Ary']</strong> is comfortable on the low block. He caught a lob feed with his back to the basket. A teammate sharply cut through the lane, and Jackson quickly identified the play's potential and dropped off the perfect lead pass. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1526361' first='Joshua' last='Spining']</strong> (Page High) -- Always alert. Made sharp, destructive cuts away from the basketball. Finished in the lane with a grace borne out of experience.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1390290' first='Issac' last='Power'] </strong>delivered an incredible two-handed overhead 30' bounce pass, which caught his teammate in stride for a beautiful layup. The execution pitted the pass up against any for a mythical Pass of the Day honor.</p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Team [player_tooltip player_id='1578697' first='Javar' last='Daniel'] (#5) vs. Team [player_tooltip player_id='1578702' first='Jordan' last='Frison']/Ary (#2)</span></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Early in the game, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1578702' first='Jordan' last='Frison'] </strong>sliced through the morass. Picked out the right guy. Frison was fantastic all day. Unsurprisingly. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Team #5 was dominated by two senior stars ([player_tooltip player_id='1495685' first='Tyler' last='Johnson'], [player_tooltip player_id='1578697' first='Javar' last='Daniel']), but another weapon, [player_tooltip player_id='1578722' first='Tacarien' last='Freeman'], proved potent. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1578722' first='Tacarien' last='Freeman'] </strong>makes it all happen. Needs to become a little better about leading his men into their layups. Spotting the open man is one thing. Spotting the open space where that man can thrive is another. His basketball I.Q. is good, not yet elite. It feels inevitable that he will be a top-tier point guard in Tennessee by the end of the season, just his sophomore season.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1578697' first='Javar' last='Daniel'] and Johnson made a formidable pair, and the entire support team brought effort and skills to the fray. Entering the final game of the afternoon, Team 5 was undefeated even though nobody formally kept a running tally of results after the games wrapped. Thanks to Frison, Team #2 pushed the favorites to the brink. Frison just could not be deterred from getting to the rim. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1578692' first='Giovanni' last='Harris'] finished an acrobatic layup over the outstretched arms of Daniel. [player_tooltip player_id='1578697' first='Javar' last='Daniel'] blocked around five shots in the game, one comedically, but Harris averted the swatting arm with a "show-and-scoop" layup in the second half.</p>
