If he stays with what he can do best during game play, the sky is the limited for this prospect. By putting up 19 points, 11 rebounds, 3 steals he impacted the game across the board. What I am noticing more is in the half court set he can handle the rock, which allows the authority at the rim to happen more.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1203205"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003e[player_tooltip player_id='1203205' first='Nolan' last='Minessale'] | 2024 | W-G | Marquette High Schoolu003c/strongu003ernrnIn a losing effort this prospect proved once again his value to his team with maximum effort and production. Tallying a team high 26 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists he gave it his all to close the lead gap until his untimely leaving the game with 5 fouls late in the contest. Nolan consistently made his impact by getting to the hoop, often displaying an exciting explosion of athleticism.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1240335"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003e[player_tooltip player_id='1240335' first='Kai' last='Rogers'] | 2025 | Center | Wauwatosa West u003c/strongu003ernrnThe number 1 prospect in the 2025 class is really starting to come into his own and this game was no exception. He looked great running the floor and showed no signs of stamina concerns. To me it looked like the Trojans had him on the move more than usual and it helped with having the opponent uncomfortable. Then it allowed him to utilize his superior passing ability to tally 6 assists. The rest of his stat line was 16 points, 8 rebounds, 2 blocks. For a big, he is touching every facet of the game, making an impact, making his presence felt","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["981038"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003e[player_tooltip player_id='981038' first='Demerius' last='Shakur'] | 2023 | Guard | Martin Lutheru003c/strongu003ernrnDemerius is often unsung and under looked but the eye test tells you that when the PG has the ball in his hands the game is smoother for his team. Same here in the first game of this event. His leadership is a calming influence displaying a high game IQ. He recorded 17 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists,","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":4,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63af85410e58d"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Quick impressions</strong> players or team we need to know and check back in on consistently, based off of performances: </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Markel Webb of Dominican posted 26 points. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Pius XL Catholic - I am believer in their talent and heart. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kaukauna - The ghost has size and shooting, which is going to make it tough for a lot of teams.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='981128' first='Mason' last='Prey'] is still that guy and a walking bucket. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
