SubscribeWhat a weekend! With events taking place all around the city of Las Vegas, there were opportunities to see a ton of future prospects. Let’s look at some of the top point guards hooping during Memorial Day weekend in Vegas.
I didn’t get a height on Tompkins but he played big. Showed nice shiftiness, using his wiggle to get past defenders. His ability to deliver accurate passes off the bounce was his signature skill that caught my eye.
Emery fits the pure Floor General mode because of his intangibles. I saw him on Friday night, and was impressed with the PG’s defensive instincts as well as his ability to handle and facilatate on the offensive side of the ball.
Harris is one of the toughest players I saw this weekend. The PG is fearless, whether he was driving in amongst the trees, or taking big shots for his team. He played well both on and off the ball, helping his Gilbert Wolfpack to a Divison championship.
The PG has an advanced offensive skill set however what was most impressive was how masterful his ability to make the simple play was this weekend. The PG did a terrific job of shooting when he was open, driving when he was defended and passing when doubled. He competed with a quiet confidence while leading his team all weekend.
Wallwork put the General in Floor General. The PG was the best I saw at any level this week, of defeating full court pressure, getting downhill, and forcing defenders to commit before hitting teammates with bounce passes for easy layups. He played with a good combination of speed and power for his Club Utah squad.
Jenkins did a big portion of his work on the defensive end. The jitterbug PG’s speed and lateral quickness allowed him to play tenacious on ball defense. He got several deflections getting his hands on balls in the passing lanes as well as harassing the dribble of offensive ballhandlers.
I really liked how Hudson played the position. He kept defenders off balance with his ability to stop and start. He also did a terrific job of making his layups when he got to the rim, time and time again using crafty angles to finish around the rim.
I only saw Collins briefly, but he impressed in the limited time I saw him. He plays with great speed and he used it to jump passing lanes, get steals and finish in transition. He was more than a straight line finisher, as the Floor General showed a terrific ability to use 1-2 and Euro steps to avoid defenders.
