Michigan/Tennessee standouts from Queen City Clash

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Queen City Clash mostly featured teams from Ohio and Kentucky, however, I was able to catch a couple teams from further away locations including Michigan and Tennessee. In this article I'm going to spotlight players from those states who caught my eye.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2411362"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Perkins was a guard with a quick first step who got downhill off the bounce. A tough player to stop in transition, when Perkins got a head of steam it usually ended in him scoring at the rim. He also turned defense into offense with a pair of lefty finishes off steals. When his feet were set, Perkins also knocked down perimeter shots created by his teammates. Overall, I was really impressed with his complete scoring ability.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1591339"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"The Joshua's were key for Greg Grant Elite. Backos was a wing who knocked down shots from the corner. The chemistry between Backos and Perkins was easy to see as a majority of Backos points came off assists from his teammates. Backos also crashed the glass and got second chances for his team. Combine that with patient takes off the bounce and he was an easy choice for standout performer.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["2051603"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_player_featured_image":2412740,"_player_evaluations_2_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Top 1 played a lot of entertaining games as three of their four battles were single-digit results. I was impressed by a few players from their team but wanted to spotlight the point guard Yanez. His team had balanced scoring in the game I caught and that was largely due to Yanez setting up a different teammate on each possession. If you take care of the basketball and help your teammates get good shots, you are doing your job as a point guard. This team has the talent to turn some of these close losses into wins as we progress through the spring and summer.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1549187"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"[program_tooltip program_id='2075918' first='Tennessee' last='Edge'] played every game within nine points, getting some nice experience in late game situations. I caught their game against Kentuckiana Hoops where Gilleland did a great job crashing the glass and getting offensive rebounds. With a size and strength advantage in the paint, Gilleland was impossible to keep from getting second chance points. Combine that with some impressive posts moves with his back to the basket and a pick and pop game, Gilleland flashed some intriguing potential. A name to watch from Tennesse, Gilleland should get small college recruiting attention this spring and summer from the Prep Hoops Circuit.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":4,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-661c59a5be3e9"} /-->
