My Takeaways From The Red Rock Academy Workout

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Red Rock Academy gained National fame a year ago when they knocked off perennial powerhouse AZ Compass. I dropped in on a recent workout as they prepare for the upcoming season, here's a look at my notes. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If [player_tooltip player_id='1253131' first='Colton' last='Knoll'] is in your lineup, your team is going to win games. - The 6'4 wing isn't the biggest or fastest player, he just does everything right. He wins 50/50's defends, makes open shots and doesn't turn the ball over. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1502772' first='Deshawn' last='Gory'] is the real deal - The California transfer is a smooth scorer. He shot the ball effortlessly and accurately from distance, but it was his playmaking and athleticism that impressed the most. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I was really impressed with [player_tooltip player_id='2259041' first='Alex' last='Barber'] - The transfer from Washington State is a smooth passer with good athleticism, he showed a nice overall floor game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations":"","_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-653f3c46d205b"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1334780' first='Aleksandar' last='Baletic'] is much more skilled than I remember - I've gotten to see Baletic for much of his career. The 6'8 forward showed much more athleticism today than I remember. He was good facing the basket, showing stretch ability out past the college three point line. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1266705' first='Jevon' last='Yapi'] is still a dawg - Was recently asked by a college coach who he should be looking at when it came to 2025 PG's. Yapi was my answer. He's got all that grit and toughness that coaches love but it's his skill that makes him special. He showed wiggle along with high level finishing ability. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
