Already taking his talents to Overtime Elite to further develop his game, high school hoops fans won't get to see Cosby in his greater Cincinnati area home. Cosby has a unique blend of size, fluidity, shot making and physical upside. Other national outlets have already done features on Cosby and his talents will be one I'll be watching closely during his action with OTE and on the grassroots circuit.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["2140874"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"I caught Mack-Russell in June with Toledo Central Catholic and saw his current production and upside on full display. Few wings of his age have the shot-making ability and he continued to improve throughout the month during live period weekends at the KABC Titans Shootout and Midwest Live. One of the top NW Ohio talents in the 2027 class, Mack-Russell will be a name fans hear a lot about the next couple seasons.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1761782"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Youngstown Ursuline have a pair of talented freshmen in Riccardo and [player_tooltip player_id='2144204' first='Jaylen' last='Gunther'].
