<p>The BCA Classic gave us 12 hours of good basketball with plenty of notable prospects. In big games, the separators may be guys who aren't receiving a ton of recruiting attention. In this article, we'll focus on five players who are going under the radar but have skillsets that could help them excel at the next level.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2306284' first='Ethan' last='Bertrand'] | Westminster Academy</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Bertrand is the quintessential point guard. At 6'3, he has ideal size for the position and flashed efficient three-level scoring. He checks the speed and strength boxes for a lead guard. Excellent ball mover who can get a talented group of players involved in the game. A good shooter off the catch and a pull-up shooter in the mid-range. Can finish through contact. Recently came to the states from Belgium with a clean recruiting record.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Isaac Redding | Winter Haven</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>An athletic guard who plays well with a star-studded cast. Really good bursts out of moves and athletic pop when finishing. Has the body control to adjust to shoot blockers. Uses his athleticism to attack passing lanes. An interesting long-term prospect who could be in for a breakout in the second half of the season or summer.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lamb is a long, athletic 6'6 combo forward. He showcased an ability to hit his mid-range shots off the dribble and knock down threes off the catch. Good athletic pop and buddy control to finish over size in the paint. Really turned up his production in the second half of a comeback win.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2307012' first='Aydan' last='Clinton'] | St. Pete Lakewood</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Clinton is a burly 6'7 forward with really good feet. I didn't think he was an explosive until he punched a two-hand back scratch dunk off vertical. Has a strong body but soft hands around the rim and out of jump hooks. Plays physical on both ends of the floor.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Alex Harper | Oviedo</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Harper is a scrappy 6'2 guard who will do whatever to win a game. He fights through screens, is a consistent shooter beyond the arc, and a low turnover ball handler. The 2024 prospect is good at drawing fouls and getting into cracks in the defense. A quick lead guard who can force ball handlers into turnovers.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='2274529' first='Sean' last='Owens'] | Olympia</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Owens is one of the best-kept secrets in central Florida. The 6'2 combo guard is a lights out shooter with deep range beyond the three point line. Solid rebounder for his position and a playmaker on a team with several ball-dominant guards. Active defender who can get can create turnovers.</p>
