<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1660031' first='Evan' last='Roberts'] is that do it all guard you just want running your team and setting the stage for everyone. The 6'1” guard is sneaky athletic and plays with a speed all his own. He's third in assists and fifth in steals on the Rebels squad this circuit so far. As a one-man fast break, Roberts did most of his damage attacking the rim in Indiana. His shot mechanics are compact, and he has a high release point. Even though he has not connected on a three-pointer yet, a good deal of his attempts are clean looks at the basket. With more reps and confidence building, Roberts can add another level to his game.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Next up we have Montverde's Dhani Miller, who just makes the right reads and decisions all over the court. He can lead the break or can slot into the off-guard role and break down his defenders that way. He protects the ball on his drives and works to take contact and still finish through it. His 6'3” and 185 lb frame allows him to handle contact and take punishment while still having the bucket in mind. Miller is the type of guard who also does not get rushed or sped up. Though he has a quick release, his pre-shot preparation is what allows him the ability to knock down jumpers in his defender's face. He's squared up to the basket and ready to receive the pass if he's in the off-guard role. Conversely, he can also dribble into a pull-up within the flow of offense is his man lags off and gives him an opening.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2299651' first='Deandre' last='Harvey'], another 6'3” combo guard who usually is the first guard off the bench for the Rebels and comes in and controls the pace and sets up his teammates. He acts as that connector any successful team must have to grow a culture of winning. Harvey shows a high-level understanding of the game with the reads he makes to find open teammates and spacing he brings with his three-point shot. As a defender, you have to play him honestly or you're in store for a knock down jumper in your face or Harvey finding a teammate for a better look.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1659512' first='Ian' last='Parham'] should be climbing up everyone's rankings after Session 3. He rebounded at a high level, he currently sits fourth on the Rebels in assists, and fifth overall in points after the first 3 sessions this circuit and showed a steady hand from deep in Indiana. If there was ever a player that was the do-it-all guy for their team, Parham is it. He can impact winning with or without the ball in his hands and those are the type of players that more people need to see and for even younger hoopers to model their games after.</p>
