Vegas is Heating UP!

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It has been awhile since so many programs have made their way to SIN CITY. This weekend brands from all over the country are heading to Las Vegas to put it on the line and we will see some matchups we normally do not see. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>BIG TIME MATCHUP</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This rarely happens but the 17U UAA Champion will face off against the 17U Adidas 3SSB Champion. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Utah Prospects had a great run as they capped off a great AAU Season with a big win against Game Elite. They will face off against Middlesex Magic. The Magic bring in a lot of players from the rich basketball community in New England and Utah will feature a smaller market of players that know how to play team ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Players to Watch</strong> 17U</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1298532' first='Jaxon' last='Johnson']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Expect players to be all over him which will open things up for other stars on the team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Julian Bowie</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Julian was under the weather last week and performed well so we expect him to be even better this weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1056969' first='Brody' last='Kozlowski']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brody has quietly been doing his thing but expect him to have a big offensive outburst this weekend, he looks locked in. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>CJ Cox </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A crafty PG that loves to work in the mid-range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jay Jones</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another shifty guard that loves to shoot the three. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Other Teams</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>all of these teams will have a loaded schedule so there will likely be no easy games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Idaho Premier UA Rise</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mountain Stars UAA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>SUSA Gold 3SGB</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Utah Gold 3SGB</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Utah Hard Knox 3SGB</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Players to Watch</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1057035' first='Ace' last='Reiser'] (Utah Gold 3SGB)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This kid is one of the best PG in the country and he continues to prove his talent.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1185179' first='Kyle' last='Lemke'] (SUSA 3SGB)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the most underrated bigs in the country.
