Classic at Damien Teams to Watch

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are a few teams in the Platinum Division to watch at The Damien Classic in California. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>American Fork (UT)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>American Fork has been playing really well and they have had a tough schedule. They have a team that can play with anyone, especially because they have size. 6'9 [player_tooltip player_id='934024' first='Aaron' last='Dunne'] has been a big surprise as the big man has been playing a classic stretch big man game. He is hitting three-pointers, he is passing very well and he does so well rebounding and just playing that big man position. It doesn't stop there with height that can come in and make a difference as [player_tooltip player_id='1046138' first='Kean' last='Webb'] the 6'10 big fell is a presence out on the floor. Does a little bit of everything and plays his role as he does what he is asked to do to win. [player_tooltip player_id='1538434' first='Blake' last='Rawson'] has been a stock riser in the Class of 2024 the 6'8 big fella plays with passion and his skills continue to develop inside/out. Blake powers through contact and rebounds with a passion. Great post presence as well. Jaxon Durrant has been an excellent stretch big that can hit the three as well at 6'7 he can really stretch the floor and of they go big he can play the three. [player_tooltip player_id='969235' first='Ashton' last='Wallace'] has been electric for the Cavemen. Dude is hitting from all three-levels and every once in awhile he will rise up and throw one down. [player_tooltip player_id='1057050' first='Tiger' last='Cuff'] has been one of the best stock rising guards in the 2024 class. stay tuned because he continues to grow and gain strength that will continue to help that steady PG style of play he has. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Owyhee, ID</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A team that is littered with scorers all over the floor leans on their leader in [player_tooltip player_id='1568017' first='Liam' last='Campbell'] and multi-use threat that is a three-level scorer. Liam has been playing well as he scores from the perimeter and in the mid-range with ease. Liam does a great job creating for his teammates. One teammate in particular that can hold his own is [player_tooltip player_id='1108098' first='Titus' last='Bailey']. Titus can really turn into a shooter out in the perimeter but he also locks up defensively. Jackson Rasmussen is a player with a lot of upside at 6'7 a wing player that can jump in the post or step outside and score as well. [player_tooltip player_id='1594165' first='Reece' last='Sasser-Gunson'] a player that plays with a lot of strength but can run the floor. Look for Owyhee to try and run early but lean on some good sets to get them going. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Sherman Oaks Notre Dame, CA</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This So. Cal power is back and they have a trio to really get them going. Dusty Stormer has some size and shooting ability. Kid can stop on a dime and light you up. Which is important because he keeps the defense from rotating or they have to make a choice to leave him open. Mercy Miller and Caleb Foster have major shakes that can get them loose and into the paint. Really enjoy watching their creative play. Watch out for Dusty Stormer he has that cheat code style of play. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
