BIBSI: 7th Team

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>June 6th-8th I attended the 17th annual&nbsp;<strong>Best in Basketball Summer Invitational&nbsp;</strong>at Mesquite HS in Gilbert/AZ.&nbsp;There were 24 teams playing in five showcase type of games over the three days.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Here is the All-Tournament 7th Team:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2275986' first='KJ' last='Fauske'] Seton Catholic</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A combo guard with a cerebral brand of ball. He is also one of the better standstill shooters in the class. When he gets hot, the flood gates open up and he will rattle in triples one by one. He is a smart passer and sees the court well. He cuts when he should and will it score inside with his left or right hand. He is slowly stretching out with some length too. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1366578' first='Davion' last='Harris'] Hamilton</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A sharp shooting combo guard is gaining confidence and steam as he is heading into his senior season. He is a catch and shoot three point shooter and can get hot quickly. He will play the passing lanes and collect steals plus rebound. He will score in transition and drive it.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2223472' first='Arteus' last='Jefferson'] St. Mary's</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A face-up power forward has a pretty looking shooting stroke. The lefty can get downhill and score in traffic, he will post up and go to work plus shoots the ball well. His sweet spot is from mid-range and he will hit the three. He rebounds well with his long arms and gives them some scoring punch off the bench.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1890161' first='Deshaun' last='Johnson'] Corona del Sol</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An athletic wing forward has a lot on his plate this year. 13 seniors graduated out of the 14 total varsity players and he is the only player left. The defenses will be shading over to him all year long. He can score with mid-range jumpers, dribble drives thru traffic and ge can hit the three off the catch with good ball rotation on it. He can create his own separation and shoot it too. He will play almost all five positions for them this year.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2143671' first='Ashton' last='Musser'] St. Mary's</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A big man keeps ascending with his mobility and fluidity. He runs the floor better and will rebound and block shots. He scores with advanced post footwork with drop steps, tough layups and hook shots.&nbsp;He looks like he will keep making leaps up each season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1548525' first='Caron' last='Perez'] Williams Field (Pictured)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A scoring combo guard makes smart reads with the ball and knows when to score or move the ball. He can hit the three off the catch and stop and pop from the stripe on the break. He has a quick burst to get into the paint and will score thru contact with his sturdy frame.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1834154' first='Brock' last='Steele'] Seton Catholic</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A tough wing forward who can score thru contact. He can hit the catch three and is patient in the paint. He will give a hard ball fake and go up to score. He will dribble drive and rise up and use the floater. He uses a high motor to rebound in and out of his area and will defend multiple positions.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1768201' first='Paxton' last='Tamlyn'] Valley Christian</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A skilled combo guard transferred over from Hamilton. He has good skill to score with catch threes, mid-range pull-ups and has speed to use on the break. He will a huge piece off the bench to compliment their main guys. Look for him to have a bigger role next year.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2339090' first='Trevion' last='Ziaire Turman'] West Point</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A true glue guy fills many boxes for the West Valley team. He boxes out well to rebound and will corral the ball out of his area. He will drive by with left or right hand and he is a sneaky good passer. His ability to defend multiple positions makes him valuable.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2339083' first='Donovan' last='Wright'] West Point</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An undersized pure point is a very good passer. He can thread the needle up the court and works smartly off the pick and roll game. He really gets the game from the neck up. He can pull-up off the dribble from the three and get to the basket with a burst. He is a quick on-ball defender with impressive lateral quickness.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
