Blyden Jr. has always been full of talent and that talent is coming to fruition. He’s a focused athlete that’s willing to work to become great. The athletic lead guard has tremendous body control and can score from all levels. Blyden Jr. has an extremely high basketball IQ and can play both as a score first or pass first lead guard.
Bledsoe has been drawing eyes with his play this high school season and he deservedly moved up in the rankings. He’s shown an explosive offensive game with blow by speed and the ability to score in the open floor and out of a half court set. A perfect example was a 36 point performance in an OT win earlier this season against Zeeland East. Bledsoe is a hard nosed rebounding guard and a solid passer while on the move.
Williams was a headline story this season. He proved to be one of the best pure passers and distributors in the state of Michigan. Williams showed that he can score when needed or when he had a good look at the rim. But it was his ability to see the floor, read the defensive action and deliver the ball on target to his athletic teammates that really stood out. Williams could be a big time steal at the next level.
I saw him play in person this winter and my message to coaches and scouts is this: He’s as advertised and is without a doubt a next level prospect. He’s an incredibly efficient point guard that makes really good decisions with the basketball in his hands. Lockhart can play at any pace and he can get the ball down the floor quickly both off the bounce as well as with the pass.
Highlights
Day has had a lot of big days this season. He came into the high school season riding an excellent grassroots campaign. Day has turned himself into a prospect that college coaches need to recruit. He has an innate ability to find buckets and seems to be at his best when he plays aggressively on the offensive end. Day can get downhill and manufacture buckets as well as pull up and bury a jumper.
