Ryan Oleisky
Ryan Oleisky
I love the speed and awareness Oleisky plays with. He’s a true pass-first point guard and finds great joy in setting up his teammates. He knows where all of his teammates are at all times allowing him to thread needles many couldn’t see. Oleisky is a very talented ball-handler and always keeps the ball on a string. He isn’t limited to excellent playmaking either; Oleisky is a crafty scorer himself who can get buckets from the inside and out.
Kobbe Willis
Kobbe Willis
Willis is a true three-level scorer who uses a high release point to his advantage. He has great length which helps him succeed in just about every aspect of his game. He has good instincts and does well moving away from the ball. He has soft touch in and around the paint. As a scorer, Willis plays with great tempo and demonstrates a ton of poise. Willis has a very polished offensive game.
Andrew Russell
Andrew Russell
Russell is a lead guard with a very quick first step and an incredibly tight handle. He can get into the paint whenever he wants and once he’s inside, he does a good job of keeping his head up, and making the right play. I like the constant aggression that he displays as an attacker. Russell also has good speed and uses it to his advantage as a defender and a transition ball-handler/scorer.
Elijah Feather
Elijah Feather
Feather is a confident shooter who lets it fly with an extend led range and good elevation. Something that helps his offensive game is his ability to change speeds and get the defenders off balance. He can create his own shot off the dribble and doesn’t need much breathing room to get his jumper off. Feather has a pretty smooth rhythm to his game and very solid mechanics in his jump-shot.
Will Brennan
Will Brennan
The timing and footwork that Brennan plays with is really good. He’s got good feet and positioning in the paint, utilizing ball-fakes and patience to score. Brennan does a nice job of moving away from the basketball to put himself into scoring positions. He has plenty of well-timed basket cuts and finishes well through contact. Brennan is a smart scorer and takes high percentage shots.
Krolak is a two-way guard with great awareness on both ends of the court. He has active hands and feet defensively and gets a ton of steals. He does a good job of providing pressure to opposing ball-handlers in the backcourt. I like the way Krolak pushes the pace on offense, he does well in transition and tends to always make the right pass. Krolak has great lateral quickness which helps him be a wall defensively and blow past defenders as an offensive attacker.
