<p class="text-gray-700">Jalen Rougier-Roane had a nice day shooting the ball, especially early. He keeps getting better and better at it, and every time I see him, he looks like more and more of a next-level guard shooter. Jalen is great off the ball and does all the little things well. It feels like he never stops moving, and one of the things I liked about him was the way he interacted with "new" teammates. Jalen is a good driver and a solid defender, and he showed that by how he guarded opposing guards. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Qayden Samuels was one of the best prospects at the event, and he showed that. Qayden did what he does best today, knocking down shots from three and showing off his high-level offensive talent. He drove to the rim well and knocked down a handful of tough jump shots. Qayden used his length and athleticism to get into passing lanes and deflect passes. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Josiah Legree showed off his athleticism a handful of times today. He skied for rebounds and knocked down a few shots. Josiah is a good passer and defender, and he had a rebound in which he jumped about as high as I've seen anyone jump for a board in a long time. Josiah was solid today in the drills portion that was done before the games as well, and that was where he first caught my eye.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2252287' first='Darius' last='Bivins']'s assortment of moves, along with his IQ and defense, were all displayed today. He had a few moves to get to his mid-range or the rim that reminded you why he's one of the best guards in the state. There aren't many players I enjoy watching more than Darius, and he was solid all day.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Jasiah Cannady had an outstanding day. He did what he does best, knocking down three after three. He had some great moves to get his shot off and knock them down. Jasiah hit the biggest shot of the day, a half-court buzzer-beater that sent his team to the final. Jasiah was terrific in the final, especially early. He was hitting shots all game and looked comfortable in every facet.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Big man Tyrell Bowles did what a true big man does all day. He was great rolling to the basket and finishing at the rim with dunks and layups. He was a solid defensive presence and rebounded well. He also had a big performance in the final and was one of the better true bigs on the day.</p>

The best talent in the DMV was in the gym on Saturday at St. James. High-level basketball was being played, and these guys stood out the most in a room full of standouts.
