<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A few guards who made the most of their opportunities within a few dribbles, getting to efficient looks within the offensive flow.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1622244"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667c479ce9d0c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Davis will be a particularly impactful guard for Denver South, bringing a wide variety of high motor and skilled perimeter playmakers. Davis brings a lot of the same tendencies as the other key names for this team, quickly grabbing defensive rebounds and pushing it up the floor after the fact. He brought an eagerness about him, constantly looking to attack the rim regardless of his matchup. He should be a notable rotation player for this group, boasting plenty of talented guards, following a 16-8 record this past season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1874429"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667c479ce9d66"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A confident shotmaker, Walker adds a bit more flare to Fossil Ridge's offensive production. A strong guard with the ability to knock down open shots or take it into the lane through contact, his production will add another layer to his new high school group. Showing flashes with off the dribble shotmaking along the perimeter, the guard has more than meets the eye. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1622235"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667c479ce9da9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brunton is an especially tall guard, continuing to become more patient with his decisionmaking in the halfcourt. Capable of leveraging his long strides and pivot moves to fool defenders around the rim, he has no trouble getting to a shot past pressure. Defensively, he holds up against a wide variety of perimeter opponents, bringing a wide reach to deter drives. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1479336"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667c479ce9de9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Shields brings a strong frame along the wing, adept at matching up 1 through 3 from this recent event. He got up plenty of good looks within the offensive flow, following handoffs or cuts to get openings against a lackluster defense. Repeatedly finishing layups through contact, the guard was about as consistent as anyone for Fossil Ridge at this event. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2410486"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667c479ce9e27"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cowans has been a dependable perimeter shooter for quite some time, continuing to provide value for Denver West. Knockdown off the catch, opponents were often left with a difficult decision to help or stay home against drivers. If looking to attack the closeout, the guard remained a dependable passer once help arrived, looking to make the extra pass if necessary. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2460826"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667c479ce9e64"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A knockdown shooter and quick decision maker on drives, Psaute will be a notable contributor for Ralston Valley, stepping into a larger role this coming season. Effective as a secondary creator following a kick out, he is at his best while attacking a rotating defense. Bringing a bit more bounce than one would think, he often looks to facilitate teammates while mid-air, often making the right read once help arrives at the basket. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1496642"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667c479ce9ea1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A talented above the rim athlete, Romero has continued to provide consistent rim pressure on drives, quick with the first step. Continuing to develop his shotmaking abilities, the guard has steadily refined his shotmaking profile from all three levels. Defensively, he is a dependable point of attack defender, effectively taking on bigger matchups due to his verticality at the rim. He continues to develop his abilities with the off-hand, getting quick maneuvering out of his right hand for finishes or passing opportunities. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

A few guards who made the most of their opportunities within a few dribbles, getting to efficient looks within the offensive flow.
