<p>With the AAU season winding down and most clubs on the road attending events, Get Buckets or Die, Elev8d Visuals and myself put on an exposure camp to help some of the top non-traveling talents. Players were put on teams and into gameplay situations with the cameras rolling. I previously reviewed my standouts and I am focusing on players who showed high ceilings during the event. Meaning they displayed every physical and mental attribute to be considered a talent poised for a breakout.</p>

Williams was a strong contributor as a sophomore to the Chieftains this past season, scoring in double figures in multiple games, while being a primary ball handler. He has a high basketball I.Q. and always seems to make the right decision on both ends of the floor. Williams has a smooth stroke from distance, which puts pressure on defenses to close out hard and open opportunities for scoring lanes. His demeanor is as cool as a cucumber, never getting rattled with the ball and patiently waiting for the offense to develop when it's not. Williams is an unselfish talent, with his offensive package he could easily average double figures on any given night but is always willing to make the extra pass for a higher percentage shot. With his confidence growing, quick defensive hands and coachability, Williams is set to make a mark in the Metro this fall.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://iframe%20src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17131951/639641147bd41a05f020ee38'%20width='640'%20height='360'%20frameborder='0'%20allowfullscreen/iframeu0022u003eu003ciframe src=u0022https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17131951/639641147bd41a05f020ee38u0022 width=u0022640u0022 height=u0022360u0022 frameborder=u00220u0022 allowfullscreen=u0022allowfullscreenu0022u003eu003c/iframeu003eu003c/au003ernrnu0026nbsp;","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"Ronald Harlan","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Omaha Bryan High School","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"u003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/RonaldHarlan3u0022u003ehttps://twitter.com/RonaldHarlan3u003c/au003ernrnAnother impactful transfer for the Bears, Harlan showed off his ability to contribute in multiple ways on the court. He is a long defender who can apply pressure on the ball, making it tough to get passes around his outstretched arms. He anticipated passes well creating turnovers. Offensively, he could create off the dribble to draw defenders and kick to open shooters. During his junior year he dropped over 20 points three times and averaged 4.5 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 2.3 steals per game. Harlan has a knack to get to the ball and make plays. Omaha Bryan has fantastic talent this year and Harlan is a glue type of player that can impact a game in multiple ways off the bench and spark runs. Harlan could be an X Factor for his team this year and open a lot of eyes to his potential.rnrnu0026nbsp;rnrnu0026nbsp;rnrnu0026nbsp;","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1587880"],"_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":"u003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/j35_elginu0022u003ehttps://twitter.com/j35_elginu003c/au003ernrnAn athletic player with good length, Elgin impressed with his skillset. I even caught another parent speaking to him after the event to figure out how to follow him. Elgin has the strength to play power forward but the offensive package to play a small forward, showing off his range by hitting multiple three-point shots. He made opponents offensive possessions difficult using his length and won battles on the boards when challenged by smaller defenders. He did not press offensively, taking what defenses gave him and finding open shooters in space. Elgin talent was evident, and he carried himself very positively, always smiling and engaging with his teammates. The Cougars have a talented big man in Tanner Hollinger and a solid guard in Ashton Seim. Elgin will complement these two well and should see a huge stock increase once the season starts rolling. He will be a hidden gem for any university.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://iframe%20src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/11708506/63c8544f664b1c171c8caaf1'%20width='640'%20height='360'%20frameborder='0'%20allowfullscreen/iframeu0022u003eu003ciframe src=u0022https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/11708506/63c8544f664b1c171c8caaf1u0022 width=u0022640u0022 height=u0022360u0022 frameborder=u00220u0022 allowfullscreen=u0022allowfullscreenu0022u003eu003c/iframeu003eu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1591144"],"_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":"u003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/treytolberttu0022u003ehttps://twitter.com/treytolberttu003c/au003ernrnTolbert is another player you can tell is and has been coached well. His movement off the ball is spectacular. He makes sly and intelligent cuts to the basket, creating high percentage shots for himself and his team. He has a very controlled game, doesn't fold when being pressured, knows how to space the floor and understands how to get into lanes for opportunities to score or pass to open shooters. Tolbert has quick defensive hands which allows him to poke balls free and create fast break opportunities. Tolbert brings energy and intelligence to the court and will spark any lineup with his play. The Chieftains have a young and talented backcourt with Tolbert, [player_tooltip player_id='1580083' first='Ammi' last='Williams'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1588632' first='Kris' last='Brown'] and will give the metro teams all they can handle during the fall. Tolbert's development should be instrumental in their success.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://iframe%20src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16822527/63b28dc54205b90820fcd36b'%20width='640'%20height='360'%20frameborder='0'%20allowfullscreen/iframeu0022u003eu003ciframe src=u0022https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16822527/63b28dc54205b90820fcd36bu0022 width=u0022640u0022 height=u0022360u0022 frameborder=u00220u0022 allowfullscreen=u0022allowfullscreenu0022u003eu003c/iframeu003eu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":4,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64acd4f8eb1de"} /-->
