<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Today is a very good day. Why? Because it's National Positive Media Day! What better day for a feel good article?

But HE always knew just how elite he could be and really was. He waited patiently for the rest of us to see. Well Mr. Lewless, now the entire country knows. He's been on an absolute tear since last high school season all the way though spring grassroots ball.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1253372"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"I love this kids approach to the game. He could average a 20 spot in high school ball and in grassroots play. But instead of making sure that 'he gets his', he makes sure that the team wins. Spratt makes winning plays. He's going to make those same winning plays at the next level.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1115332"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"The evolvement of Nadeau's game has been remarkable to say the least. He perfected his game near the basket and as he became more adept to the perimeter, he developed those facets of his game as well. What do we have now? One of the most wee rounded D1 talents in the state. Incoming freshman, take note.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1140931"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"I could write a book about Bentley, It's not about fame or numbers for this young man. It's about wins and its about his teammates. He's a high IQ player that makes great decisions with the ball. He'd rather feed a wide open teammate then force up a contested shot in search of numbers. Some college coach out there is going to get a steal.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1437538"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"I really admire [player_tooltip player_id='1437538' first='Lance' last='Stone']. He's been perfectly comfortable taking his own path and believing that it will take him where he wants to go. Everyone is now seeing that his path most definitely has worked for him.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["1438248"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"I love watching Becher play and compete. Nobody goes harder from tip to buzzer than he does. Becher will sacrifice his body to make what might seem like the smallest of plays. But to him, every play means a W or an L. Best of all, he's one of the classiest players that you'll run into.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["1588230"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"Salenbien isn't worried about his name being popular or what he's ranked. That's commendable by itself. Instead, he's focused on ways that he can improve and become the best basketball player that he can be. That shows that Salenbiem really gets it and is headed down a great path.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_player":["1890561"],"_player_evaluations_7_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"Arnold wants so bad to be so good. And he is very talented. One of the best moments of my spring was watching him put it all together in a game in Columbus and successfully defend out of his normal position and comfort zone. A kid like Arnold deserved to see his work paying off.","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":8,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6494508f3516e"} /-->
