<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>On April 28-29 PH NorCal was in Arizona for the second live period when college coaches can evaluate high school prospects. For this event PH NorCal went to only one venue, Crismon High School on Friday and Saturday. Our report is all about NorCals who played well while we were in attendance. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1625633' first='Isaiah' last='Montue'] 6'1 2024 CG, Clutch Elite 2024, Grant HS</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He's a steady reliable guard that plays on both ends of the court. He defends at a good level with the ability to guard both guard positions. He's a good ball mover, and court runner often hustling up to fill lanes. He can finish through contact and knock down a 3ptr. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1652764' first='Luka' last='Radovanovic'] 6'6 2024 F, Stockton Soldiers 17U, Vanden HS</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He's an active player who puts in good effort working around the post areas, not posting up. He had good takes going to the basket after receiving the pass. He had good shots moving across the lanes using extended arms to get his release close to the rim. He can hit the free throw jumper, and use his body to help on the boards. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1510781' first='Larry' last='Lewis'] 6'7 2024 F, Team Rampage 17U National Vacaville HS</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He continues to show he's a rising prospect in this 2024 class. He's using his improved handles to aggressively attack the rim out on the perimeter, and in transition. He's doing a good job of running the court getting follow up rebounds. He's a bit stronger and more physical working for points and rebounds. He's improved his 3pt shot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1809037' first='Kenyon' last='Demuynck'] 6'9 2024 F/C, NorCal Ducks, San Leandro HS</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He's on the verge of being a legitimate rim protector. We've seen his progress and confidence grow over the last few weeks against good competition. He has good recovery to block multiple shots in one sequence, a good second jump going straight up. He's working on his shot, he'll put up a 3ptr at the top. When balanced he's attempting to dunk everything around the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1515114' first='Damarion' last='Vann-Kelly'] 6'4 SG CTBXGU 17U, Monterey Trail HS</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We only saw a half of his game on. It was clear in this game, he was on fire knocking down 3's from different areas of the court. He would come down in transition, set up in the corner. He'd find an opening in half court, and use his dribble on occasion to knock one down along the perimeter. We saw him hit 3 in a row.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1383579' first='Uriah' last='Brown'] 6'1 2024 CG Silicon Valley Soldiers 17U Elite, Santa Teresa HS</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Browns a combo guard with a good shot off the dribble. He's aggressive when looking to put points on the board. He has the range to knock down 3's in transition off the dribble or spotting up along the perimeter. He can run the offense up top at times using his handle to get into the paint for dishes and jumpers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1510769' first='Brit' last='Burden'] 6'7 2024 F Infinite 17U Gold, Piedmont HS</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Burden continues to expand his game away from the basket, which makes him a versatile player who can generate points in the paint and be productive away from the basket. He's using improved ball handling skills to attack from the baseline, and on the perimeter with strong finishes, and an occasional pull-up jumper that's going in. He rebounds, and gives good effort defending in the post.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
