This event is overflowing with talent but I was able to put together a list of standout players that dominated the painted area!
Vinny Corrado Vinny Corrado 6'4" | CG Westfield Community | 2028 IL | Illinois Future
Corrado was a versatile impact for Illinois Future . He led the way on the defensive boards and was capable of leading the break. The pace pushing forward was able to take the ball coast to coast and also proved to be a serviceable distributor as well. Most impressive was his willingness to guard all positions.
Christian Hani Christian Hani 6'3" | C IL | All In Athletics
Hani anchored both ends of the floor and utilized his size in a major way. His team benefited greatly from his patience and soft touch at the basket and at the free throw line. Most impressive was his activity on the boards.
Team Herro | Kash Knueppel Kash Knueppel 5'11" Wisconsin Lutheran HS | 2029 WI
Knueppel led the way with his toughness and ability to board for Team Herro. His presence and positioning altered shots on the defensive end. He caught the ball in the post with teammates in mind which led to great looks all weekend.
Kinston Knueppel | Ray Allen Select
Knueppel made a consistent impact for Ray Allen Select . He snagged boards and 50/50 balls with great instincts that led to points in transition. His savvy pivots and court vision stood out to me the most.
