Kipton is long and active. Has no problem securing a rebound and putting the ball on the floor. Comfortable getting out in transition, runs rim to rim with a purpose. Good feet around the basket!

Scrappy, active guard! Put it out in front of him and he is likely to get a hand on it. Always down and ready to shoot with confidence. Plays the game with sound fundamentals and high energy!

Canyon is one to put on your watchlist if you enjoy seeing the process. Seems to be developing in the game of basketball, but already has some tools in the bag that work right now! Kid is long and active with a unique ability to score around the basket. One of those players that just has those good instincts. Following.

Proves he can shoot the three and does it with confidence. Attacks the basket aggressively and plays with his body. Knows how to hunt rebounds. Good sized kid with guard skills. Solid handle! Dre played plenty of minutes as a 7th grader in a Wichita City League that combines the 7th and 8th grade class, to make one team. We recently caught him in action at a Showcase in Omaha, holding his own playing up 14u/8th grade.
I’ve heard a few people say he is the best guard in the 2029 class from the Wichita Area… Not going to cast my vote yet, but I’ve saw “BIG GAME JAMES” live and in person quite a few times, and nobody in the gym could guard him! Kid is an absolute dawg, a tough competitor that plays hard on both ends.
