Jaylen Lee
Jaylen Lee
Liked what I saw from Lee. He played with a good feel for the game, and showed skill. Lee was able to handle against pressure, displaying good quickness and he produced some shot making moments knocking down open threes.
BJ Jolly
BJ Jolly
Jolly has good upside to match a natural feel for the game. He displayed a decent skill set that saw him handle the ball as well as make open threes in catch and shoot situations.
Jordan Contreras
Jordan Contreras
Got introduced to Contreras while working out a high school prospect this summer. He flashed some game which included good slashing ability. Contreras was effective beating defenders off the bounce, getting to the rim and finishing.
Amari Carroll
Amari Carroll
Carroll is an Alum of the LV Middle School Combine showing a big improvement from 12 months ago. His biggest improvement was on the defensive end where he was terrific on ball en route to being named Clamp God for camp defensive player of the year.
Zamir Towers
Zamir Towers
They couldn’t guard 12 all day. Towers proved to be most effective as a downhill driver using a good burst to defeat defenders to get into the lane and finish.
Cassius Torres
Cassius Torres
Torres was one of the craftiess players I saw. He had a knack for drawing fouls showing good body control on his drives. He has all the little finishes needed by a smaller guard, and showed solid shooting ability off the bounce.
Keyotti Evans
Keyotti Evans
Evans is a guy to keep an eye on. He’s a long armed young player with a decent frame, all signs that point toward potential success. He was active on the defensive and on the offensive end using his quickness to be effective as a downhill driver.
AJ Hawkins
AJ Hawkins
Hawkins is the type of player that scouts and coaches love. Had him at the LV Middle School Combine last year and he was Ok. That is not a term that has been used about him since. He was brilliant, playing in a scrimmage type setting at his pace. He scored the ball in transition, and showed a smooth and quick release from the three point line. He really served notice that he’s a 2029 to keep eyes on.
Benjamin Brown
Benjamin Brown
Brown did a good job of overpowering the competition. He scored the ball off drives, absorbing contact before finishing. He also showed good shooting, being able to knock down long rangy threes throughout the event en route to being named top scorer.
Joe Mckinney
Joe Mckinney
Showcase events are a platform for exactly that, a player to showcase his skills. I thought Mckinney did a great job of that. Normally known as a bruiser, he displayed more skill than I have seen. The 5 man did a terrific job facing up and attacking the basket showing a decent handle in the process. His strong hands and handle also allowed him to grab rebounds and lead the break.
