SubscribeHere is a short list of prospects that have a bright future ahead of them as they have displayed some great play and translatable skills. Some of these players are just scratching the surface and a few others you can see the maturity and next level promise.
The son of former All-Star Guard Isiah Rider has some game. That lateral seek dribble is elite as he is batting that defense to commit so he can find and opening. He is playing with a lot of confidence and swag. He has that imma go out you mentality. Solid all-around game and tough finisher as he is not afraid of that contact.

Currently you can see Isaiah really work on spacing the floor. He does attack the rim but he is a lights out shooter in those corners. There were a few times he was in the corner and his defender came over to help and he was knockdown. He is going to continue to develop his game but as a shooter he has it down and he is looking to get his shots up. Really like that high release and the way he holds that follow-through. The son of former NBA star Matt Barnes.

Saba has a solid foundation and is the son of Zaza Pachulia. You can see his mind turning trying to figure things out on the floor trying to use that high level IQ to help his team in anyway he can. Saba has solid all-around skills, he is a bit passive out on the floor but he does have a good shot and when he puts the ball on the floor he is looking to attack or create. He does roam out in the perimeter but when he is moving and making cuts he really does himself a favor because it opens things up for him and his team as the defense moves. This kid is yet to hit thta growth spur so stay tuned he is going to hit it and grow and be a monster.

The son of actor “Pooch Hall” Djordan got game. He is a stop and pop shooter that has athleticism but stretching the floor is something he does so well. one of the better in transition shooters. He has that game that can make a run all on his own with tough defense and court awareness. Impressive game and he is just getting started.

Thaddeus has a solid game and a solid frame. He looks big and strong on the floor and then you get up close and he is bigger than he looks. Which then you start to think that he moves very well for being one of those bigger 8th graders out there. Thaddeus has take over ability. Not only is he a game changer with the ball in his hands he is just slippery with that dribble. When the defense adjust and protect the drive he can light it up from deep. He doe shave that three-level scoring down but he does it a bit differently. He makes these quick moves and then rises up and laces one up. He gets in the lane and hits that spin move and dumps it off. He is using his vision to hit those skip passes to open players. He looked a bit different out that with that mature game. Really like his combo guard skills.
