is one of those players that just makes a difference when he is on the floor. His skill level makes defenses adjust to him which then creates other opportunities for role players around him and shot makers getting open out on the perimeter. He will be battling with this list below for Region MVP and he has the skill set to score a lot of points and also stat stuff in other areas of his game.
KJ is a deadly scorer. This is not just him shooting well from beyond the arc but it is also him creating off the dribble and even working what is given to him off of screens. You can use him on pin-downs or simply bringing the ball up the floor. He is a true combo guard that can play all 3 positions. He is also strong enough and skilled enough to do work down on the block.
Zach is one of those hybrid players that can hurt high school defenders in the post but he is going to be a perimeter player at the next level. Zach has been really good this Spring getting to some spots where he can be effective. Look for himt omake a big leap this year as he has been on the rise and developing a lot.
Hunter is no stranger the the spotlight as he has been a big time scorer since he set foot on the court as a high schooler. He is now committed to play at the next level and he is going to be among the best scorers in the state. His knack for scoring all over the floor and getting in a rhythm is elite. Look for him to not only go off for big numbers but also make some big time highlight plays as well.
Paul is a player that does a lot of the dirty work. He cleans up the boards on both ends and he has a quick trigger when he does catch the ball in spots he feels comfortable. Paul should be a double-double machine this next year. This high academic kid is going toput himself in a great position to find a squad to play on at the next level when he is ready to play at the college level.
