Mister was one of the favorite players I saw from the Freshman Showcase. He is a 6’0 tall guard with a great strong build. He was also real smooth athlete; Seemed to float to the rim and glide across when defending the ball. My favorite part about his game was his defense. He was the best defender I watched play. He was locking down anyone he guarded. Mister also guarded multiple different positions on the court as well. His athleticism and strength allowed him to do that. Then on the offensive end he was a very good slasher and play maker. He was dropping dimes to teammates all day long.
Ty Harrison

Harrison is the true definition of heart over height. He was one of the smaller guards in the event but he had a huge impact on his team. When most basketball events are a show of too much dribbling and not enough passing Harrison did not fall into that mold. He played the game the right way. Made the right play every time he had the ball in his hands. He showed a great ability to pass the ball as well. He was threading the needle and seemed fun to play with because if you were open he would get the ball to you. His IQ and communicating was refreshing to see. He is a true point guard that you want. He even was putting his body on the line to get rebounds multiple times as well. Harrison has great refreshing energy and passion for the game.

Price was a walk up that took big advantage of the opportunity. He is a good sized guard with a strong body. He showed some really nice athletic ability to play defense on the court. He has a limited game offensively, but I loved how he find a way to get points. He was a monster on the boards. He was out jumping bigger players and was beating them to the boards and getting a ton of second chance points. He had some really nice off ball movement. He was always moving and got a ton of points by constantly moving. He played incredibly hard and seemed to never of get tired. Price was a star in his role and played within himself phenomenally.

Wallace is a fast guard that a lot of the time to just ran by players. He is a ab one line driver that is hard to stop. He has a pretty good wingspan for a guard as well and used it well to extend when fishing. He would make his layups almost unblock able. He was a really good finisher with both hands. He had very good elevation on his layout when attacking.
