<p>Well well well its time that time of the year where the unknown have become known. The hunted have became the hunter. The list will consist of players you may know, but have taken their game to another level. Some names or schools you might not have heard of. Consistent performances and producing in big games can get you notice quick.</p>   <h2 class="has-text-align-left">Michael Oaks - 6'9 St. Thomas Catholic </h2>   <p>Oaks have take a leap some have expected. In fall ball he took one dribble from the three-point line, two steps, and BOOMED on three defenders. He plays that aggressive all the time at his size we have a division-one prospect. His muscle frame looks more toned. Gets his finger on almost every rebound that give a boost on offensive boards. Oaks became more of a physical threat defensively making it hard to get easy looks at the rim. His overall game have grown him mainly his shot blocking presence in the paint. </p>   <h2 class="has-text-align-left">Jerrell Baron Jr. - 6'4 Atascocita High School</h2>   <p>First of Baron is six-feet four-inches with a six-feet eleven inch wingspan, and use it to every advantage he can. Long-range shooter with high release on jumpshot. Can create plays off the pick-n-roll, and stepping back to shoot if the defender goes under the screen. Player that is a vocal leader for his team. A team first player that make the right plays. His wingspan cause problems for his matchup to get around him. Need to bulk up more, but that will come with time. His passion for the game runs deep evening having interest in sports journalism. Holds 4.98 GPA along with being apart of the National Honor Society and Fellowship of Christain Athletes.</p>   <h2 class="has-text-align-left">Kendrick Bailey - 6'0 Glenda Dawson High School</h2>   <p>The post general have made an immediate impact to the Eagles this season. Bailey have made people consider Dawson state contenders. Very poise ball handler that will teach if you reach. Guard that know how to draw fouls, and dissect the defense. Can score from three levels. This young man have a tough mentality ready to step up in the clutch. Keep defenders off balance with steady hesitations. Press up on whoever he guard. Can turn the corner on defenders, and becomes more special in transition. Look for any opportunity to push the tempo. Received an offer from Coastal Bend College this season.</p>   <h2 class="has-text-align-left">[player_tooltip player_id='1478393' first='Trent' last='Burns'] - 7'0 P.S.A.T. Academy</h2>   <p>Burns is foreshadowing the player many think he came become. You already love the fact he is seven-feet tall with a perimeter jumpshot; now we see him taking more pride in being anchor in the paint. His presence make opponents alter their shot, and attempting to challenge more shots. He put another engine in his motor this summer. Burns can stretch the floor cause of his shooting ability. In the high post he like to face up and shoot the mid-range. Develop some post moves as well using his soft touch on the baby hook. Real calm personality on the court.</p>   <h2 class="has-text-align-left">[player_tooltip player_id='1486149' first='Tres' last='Luzey'] - 6'1 The Woodlands Christian Academy </h2>   <p>The long-range shooter made noise this past summer gaining an offer from Lamar University. Quick release that keep his form the same. This year Luzey start driving to the rim more. With a quick first-step and combination of hesitations. This point guard can become a combo guard with how he plays off the ball. Solid muscular frame on him. He gets better every time you see him. My nickname for him is, "Tres Leches" cause he will develop into a three-level scorer. Already have a floater package, and can hit those off balance. High IQ player and is a student of the game.</p>   <p> </p>   <h2 class="has-text-align-left">Glenn Bishop Jr. - 6'6 F Stafford</h2>   <p>The Swiss Army knife made a big statement against Concordia Lutheran nailing a game winning buzzer-beater in the mid-range. Can do damage from the elbow; creating plays for other or scoring himself. A defender that can guard multiple positions. Move his hips well in defensive stance. Bishop jab step can shift defenders for him to past his man. Have a natural wiggle to his game. Junior is an inside-outside player that is efficient from both areas.</p>   <p></p>
