<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1284136' first='Gerald' last='Kingbird Jr'] - Kingbird is a six-foot-one-inch 2024 guard from Red Lake. The senior has Red Lake one game from a state champion berth. In wins versus Win-E-Mac and Mahnomen/Waubun Red Lake is in the section final Friday versus Fertile-Beltrami. Kingbird has deep range on his shot and great awareness to get out in transition for easy buckets. Kingbird also has enough athleticism to dunk in transition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHibI80Sifsu0026amp;t=5su0026amp;ab_channel=NoRezervationAffiliation","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHibI80Sifs&amp;t=5s&amp;ab_channel=NoRezervationAffiliation </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1284164' first='Justin' last='Courneya'] - Courneya the 2024 senior guard went out with a bang versus Red Lake on Saturday scoring 32 points. Courneya is just a natural scorer who will get your team buckets. Deep range on his shot, and he's developed a in the paint floater to expand his scoring. He will go on to play at Concordia Moorhead next year&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2139200' first='Joe' last='Courneya'] - Courneya is a 2027 freshman guard from Win-E-Mac who averaged 13.5 points per game. The five-foot-eleven-inch guard has deep range on his shot, and can really make them in bunches like versus Red Lake when he had 5 3-pointers on his way to a 21-point performance.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1287438' first='Jackson' last='McAndrew'] - McAndrew showed why he's the favorite for Minnesota Mr. Basketball and the top recruit in Minnesota of the 2024 class Tuesday night versus Hopkins. The six-foot-nine-inch senior scored a game high 40 points to lead Wayzata to a convincing win 105-76. McAndrew teeters between the wing and stretch four on the floor as he can wear you out fundamentally inside and shoot over you from distance.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1286547' first='Sam' last='Hondl'] - Hondl a six-foot-seven-inch Albany and Minnesota Comets 2025 junior forward has Albany one game from another trip to the state tournament. Versus Spectrum Wednesday Hondl had 28 points which included three 3-pointers. Hondl can do just about everything on the floor as he stuffs up the stat sheet with his unique set of skills as he utilizes his long frame.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2126448' first='Colton' last='Purcell'] - Purcell is a 2027 freshman from Annandale and he had himself a solid freshman year for the Cardinals as they are one game short of state tournament appearance. Purcell scored 17 versus Osakis in a 61-50 victory. The six-foot-two-inch Purcell is a game competitor as I witnessed this summer as he was playing for Minnesota Rush. He also managed 2 steals versus Osakis and averaged 13.4 points per game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2524689' first='Marcus' last='Marshall Jr'] - Marshall is a 2027 freshman guard from Minneapolis North and Wednesday versus Holy Family he put together a 31-point performance to help give the Polars a convincing 104-86 win. Marshall has a quick, smooth release on his shot and made Holy Family pay from the outside making at least 4 3-pointers. Marshall is quick, and showed some good vision on passes to open players.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Delbert Hardin - Hardin is a six-foot-four-inch forward from Minneapolis North who brings high energy and does the dirty work inside. Against Holy Family he scored 16 points and had at least 1 block displaying good athleticism and a strong motor on both sides of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
