2025 Tremayne Martin ProSkills SA.
Martin is a very smooth guard with his play. Sees the floor well and made some on-point passes. Tremayne does a good job defensively getting hands on loose balls and making sound decisions with them as he ended with a handful of assist. His shot looked good and also a close to textbook follow-through. Martin finished with 13 points.
2025 Zach Orr – Wisconsin Playmakers
The spunky guard shot the ball like a marksman. Orr made several shots in the game on the move and in catch-and-shoot situations. Zach was also crafty at getting to the rim and he played well in off-ball situations as a slasher. Orr finished with 15 points.
2024 Jordan Brooks – IL Attack
Brooks was one of the better players on Friday. He spent most of the first half in attack mode beating guys off the dribble with a hard jab step. He is very athletic and has good body control when in attack mode. Later in the game Jordan hit a pair of threes and busted the game open for his squad. He led all scorers with 25 points.
2024 Jaxson Tilton – Northwest Elite
Tilton is a wide-frame wing player who isn’t afraid to mix things up in the paint. It seems like he was always around the ball when it came off the rim. He got several rebounds and went back up for buckets and at times he was fouled in the process. Jaxson is versatile because he can put the ball on the floor as well as be effective in catch-and-shoot situations. Tilton led his team with 15 points and 8 rebounds.
2024 Zy’ierre Stewart – Minnesota Select
Stewart had many plays that received an extra roar of excitement from the Select parent section. He is a downhill guard that plays with a lot of pizzazz. He is a solid shooter that saw a few shots fall but did most of his damage attacking rim protectors head-on. He spent most of the second half shooting free throws which led to his team winning and his finish of 19 points.
2024 Brandon Kehrnes- D1 New Mexico
Brandon is a 6’6 load in the paint. He looked to have very good hands and works for his positioning when around the rim. Kehrnes is strong and pretty nimble on his feet. He grabbed many boards and was also seen going through players to score. And just to show he isn’t just a post player Brandon hit a three before the game was over as he finished with 15 points
Quick takes
Colin Gerrity – Illinois Attack 2024
Gerrity nailed 5 threes in the game and finished with 15 points.
Dallas Wallin – Northwest Elite 2024
6’6 plus shooter who has really good ball skills as well. Scored 13 in a tough contest.
Enrique Torrez- ProSkills SA 2024
6’4 catch and shoot wing that can get to the rim off a baseline drive and kicks. He nailed 4 threes and even drove to the rim for buckets a few times.
Matas Gaidukevicius – Lithuania Basketball 2025
I like the upside of this kid 6’5 wing player who is pretty bouncy. Matas had two eye-opening dunks. As a junior that’s playing up an age bracket he is still not as physically mature yet. Matas figured out that he can beat the big men off the dribble with ease. As they adjusted Matas hit a pair of threes that kept his team in the game.
