Harrison Ayer (5’4/PG/’29/Team Nike Select)
IG: harrisonayer2029 / nikeselect2029
Harrison was one of the best when it came to scoring from behind the arc. He is a small lead guard but has a solid skill set. He is reliable and trustworthy with the rock in his hands. He has a good feel for the game and good court vision and awareness. Though small, he plays with toughness.
Benton Freije (5’8/PG/’29/Lakers Elite)
Benton had a good showing during the weekend. He is a crafty guard off the bounce and does a good job getting downhill and finishing at the cup. He is a multi-level scorer who is really good off the bounce and was one of the best at drawing fouls and getting to the line. He showed his playmaking abilities and has a lot of potential that will turn into production if he stays in the lab.
Kevondre Bass (5’4/PG/’29/TTP Elite)

Kevondre is a small lead guard who is really quick with the rock in his hands. His end-to-end speed was second to none, and defenders found it very challenging to keep up with him. His speed is undoubtedly the strength of his game, and it is evident as he impacts both ends of the floor. Defensively, he really stood out with his active hands, as he had numerous deflections and turned his defense into offense.
Weston Carver (5’6/SG/’29/Stars Gold [Thrash])

Weston can absolutely stroke the rock and showed that he could do it from behind the arc and with his midi. He has a nice technique for a young player who is still early on his basketball journey. He is heady and makes good decisions with the rock off the bounce as he finds open teammates after his dribble penetration collapses the defense. He has a solid overall game, but his marksmanship from deep was the most impressive part of his game.
Joshua McGill (5’8/PG/’29/Chattanooga Beast)
IG: 5starr.yoda
Joshua is a lead guard who was a good isolation scorer. He is shifty with the rock in his hands and does a good job creating offense off the bounce. He showed that he can be a weapon in attack mode looking for his shot, and creating for his teammates and getting them the rock in areas they can quickly produce. He is at his best when he is in space and has his defenders on an island with him. His team ran into a juggernaut on Sunday afternoon, but he competed and did not back down. There were some questions regarding his body language at the end of the game, and as good of a player as he is, that is something that he needs to learn to control as he continues his journey.
Aidan Hussey Aidan Hussey 6'0" | PG TN (6’3/CG/’29/ Team Thad )
X: @aidanmekhi24 / @TeamThad2029
Aidan is a listed combo guard with good positional size and versatility. He was very good at scoring on the inside and provided production on the glass. He played a physical brand of basketball, and there were not many who could match his physical strength, not even mentioning being able to withstand his physical play. Aidan has size, length, and the ability to impact the game with his physical play, making him an impact player on both ends of the floor.
