Dante is a big man that has the skill sets of a guard, being able to use his vision to see the court and make the right decision. On the defensive end he has the quickness to guard ball handlers on the perimeter and poke the ball loose, getting out in transition. He can also anchor the paint, coming up with blocks and crashing the boards limiting second chance points. On offense he is a knock down shooter from behind the arc. He can also get aggressive and take it to players in the post. He will be a big to keep an eye on as his stock will rise this summer.
Highlights
Delescinskis is a player who can be a pest on the defensive end at times, being able to apply pressure. He is a good on-ball defender that has quick feet and can switch onto taller defenders on the perimeter, poking the ball loose when they try to dribble. He at times can help on the boards finding himself in the right position on longer rebounds. On the offensive end he can score on all three levels and when he gets into the paint has the touch to finish inside. He has a quick pull up and can knock down midrange as well as shots from behind the arc.
Kimita is a lengthy guard and can help out in the interior on the defensive end. He gives high energy on the defensive side of the ball and can crash the boards limiting second chance points. He is a good off-ball defender and can use his vision to play the passing lanes and can get the ball out into transition quickly. At times, he is able to use his length and quickness to come over in help side and come up with some blocks. He has some raw potential on the offensive end but I see him as more of an inside scorer when he gets the opportunity.
Alleman is a player that has a lot of potential and is a force on the interior at both ends of the court. On the offensive end he plays above the rim, being able to catch alley-oops or just gathering the ball and going straight up with it for a dunk. He has nice touch and can extend his range, being able to knock down shots from the elbow and at times from behind the arc. On the defensive end he is a beast in the paint, sending away shots and making it difficult to get anything going inside. He will be a big to put on the radar as his stock will take a huge jump if he continues his spring performance into the summer.
Scott is a wing player that is starting to turn some heads as an inside-out presence. He can help in the post and crash the boards helping limit second chance points. He also shows good vision being able to play the passing lanes well, getting his hands on passes and getting out in transition quickly. On the offensive end he is able to step out behind the arc and knock down the three ball consistently making defenders pay if they don’t step out. He is able to take defenders off of the dribble and can finish with some finesse when he get it into the post.
