<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Hoops Missouri takes a look at some New Names of players that we saw at last week's IAABO Team Camp at Francis Howell North.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2478701,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5526.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5526.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2478701" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2533799' first='Ayden' last='Lemons'] (Marquette): A 6'0" 2027 point guard who is very poised and who plays with a smooth demeanor on the floor. He is a good defensive player who can create turnovers with his quick hands and good instincts. He can penetrate and hit runners in the lane and knock down the open 3-pointer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*******<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2478703,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5540.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5540.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2478703" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Caynen Simmons (St Dominic): A 6'3" 2025 southpaw forward who comes over to the Crusaders from DeSmet. He has a stout body that is built for contact, but he's comfortable on the perimeter, especially as a passer. His court vision was excellent as he was zipping passes to open teammates from a variety of angles.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2478704,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5553.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5553.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2478704" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Drew Griffin (Parkway North): A 5'11" 2026 point guard who has impressive quickness and good offensive ability. He was hard to defend as he could beat defenders on the straight line drive or pull up and hit the perimeter jumper off the bounce. He is a very good on-ball defender who will pick up the ball handler in the backcourt. He moves his feet well to stay attached.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2478708,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5528.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5528.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2478708" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Eli Maritz (Fort Zumwalt North): A 6'5" 2025 forward who was a defensive force in the game that I watched against Eureka. He blocked four shots in the first half. His timing was excellent as he was getting swats without coming close to fouling the shooters. He also had some strong, physical moves in the low post to get buckets.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*******<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2478709,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5566.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/IMG_5566.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2478709" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2541253' first='Joe' last='Rauls'] (Eureka): A 5'11" 2026 point guard who can really shoot the ball well from long distance. He's equally effective playing off the ball or playing at the point. He moves well and does his work to get open from 3-pointers and he's capable of hitting the defender with a quick escape move to create a mid-range jumper off the dribble. He can also pass it well and find open teammates.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
