He did not score the rock, but his impact was undeniable as he was a monster on the glass and did a good job contesting shots in the paint. Anytime opponents entered the paint, and Egypt was nearby, he forced them to earn whatever they got. He has good instincts when it comes to both rebounding and blocking shots.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":2285150,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/11/PH-Houston-Cunningham-C.png"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/11/PH-Houston-Cunningham-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-2285150" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2224455' first='Houston' last='Cunningham'] </strong>(6'1/PG/'25/Theodore HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: Hrcroyal</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X/Twitter: @HoustonCun28772</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Evaluation Event: Mountain Brook Spartan Turkey Jam</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Houston is a versatile lead guard who did a good job balancing, scoring, and facilitating. He poured in double-digits when I watched him compete against Hueytown, so the ability to score the rock is there. He is a really good scorer on the interior and also does a good job on the glass, as he was one of the better rebounding guards I saw. He is a competitor and gives his team everything he has when he is on the floor.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":2285151,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/11/PH-Orlandis-Cornelius-Beale-C.png"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/11/PH-Orlandis-Cornelius-Beale-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-2285151" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Orlandis Cornelius Beale </strong>(6'2/F/'25/Sparkman HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: orlandis238</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X/Twitter: @Orlandis_Beale</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Evaluation Event: Vestavia Hills Sneaky Pete's Rebel Classic</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Orlandis spends a lot of time in the paint and on the low block. When you look at his 6'2 height, you immediately understand that he is an undersized post player. As I always say, there are some teams in the state that undersized posts can be effective against. Despite his size, Orlandis was getting buckets in the match-up against Enterprise, especially late in the game. He is physical and gives Sparkman toughness on the interior.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":2285154,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/11/PH-Brady-Wadsworth-C.png"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/11/PH-Brady-Wadsworth-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-2285154" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2314052' first='Brady' last='Wadsworth']  </strong>(6'5/PF|C/'26/Enterprise HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: bradywadsworth</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Evaluation Event: Vestavia Hills Sneaky Pete's Rebel Classic</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Brady is a workhorse. He is stout and plays extremely physical. He brings toughness to his squad and doesn't mind mixing it up in the paint and on the boards. Brady's interior defense and rim protection help his team compete night in and night out. He isn't asked to be a primary scorer, but the intangible that he brings to the floor proves to be very beneficial to his squad.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Landon Kole Parker </strong>(6'1/PG/'24/Carver-Montgomery HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: landokappn</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X/Twitter: @Landonparkerrr</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Evaluation Event: Pelham Thanksgiving Tourney</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">If I were naming superlatives from what I saw over the Thanksgiving week, then Landon would be considered the 'Best Stock-Riser' as his game has to be one of the brightest and full of potential. He can be viewed as a score-first PG, as he is absolutely a beast scoring the rock. He scores from all levels and is a really good scorer from behind the arc. Look for Landon to be in our updated 2024 rankings, as he is one of the better lead guards who can fill it up in a variety of ways.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1905952' first='Zander' last='Frazier'] </strong>(6'6/Wing/' 24/Carver-Montgomery HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: shifty_.zan</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X/Twitter: @iamzanderfrazi1</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Evaluation Event: Pelham Thanksgiving Tourney</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Zander is a versatile wing with good positional size. He has an all-around solid game and does a little bit of everything well. Offensively, he can put it on the floor, get to the cup, score in the mid-range, score on the low-block, and score it from three. His length and athleticism were major factors against Pelham. His playmaking skills were on full display, as he could get his own at any time, but he did a good job setting the table for his teammates.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2314054' first='Jonathan' last='Burnett'] </strong> (6'8/PF|C/'26/Hueytown HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: LongLivePruitt</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X/Twitter: @jonathanburn55</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Evaluation Event: Mountain Brook Spartan Turkey Jam</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Jonathan is the big man in the middle for Hueytown, and he does a good job of making it tough for opponents to find production in the paint. He does a good job in his role, which is protecting the rim. There is a lot that Jonathan needs to work on to be more of a contributor, but for now, he will be a factor on the defensive end of the floor. He has to continue to work on getting stronger as he works on adding to his game.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
