<p class="text-gray-700">Duncan got to the rim at will, physically and athletically overbearing for opposing perimeter defenders. With a head of steam, Duncan could open up the driving lane with a crossover, blowing by opponents with ease. Dependable around the rim with finger rolls, pivot finishes or high flying dunks, his impact within the paint drew constant help defense. Another area of value was his half court passing vision, adept hitting backdoor cutters through tight windows. On top of all these traits, Duncan is an incredibly high motor forward, constantly in play for a rebound on both ends of the floor. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Hakeem brings bounce off of two feet, adept at getting up higher than the vast majority of opponents at this event. Working hard to secure rebounds on either end, Hakeem created numerous second chance opportunities for himself or teammates. His wide reach made him a multi positional defender, excellent matching against 1s and 2s. Hitting a few spot-up threes when provided the space, Hakeem is already an intriguing complementary option. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Egbuji will be an intriguing defensive asset up at Fossil Ridge, bringing a strong frame and decent lateral quickness to the table. Effective while switched onto opposing perimeter playmakers, he holds his own, walling off the lane with ease. His rim protection aided his team, keeping quite a few opponents from getting quality looks at the rim, thanks to his quick rotations. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Herrera may not be as tall as the other names in this grouping, but his high motor play allowed him to grab plenty of hard fought rebounds. Not many guards have a nose for the ball like Herrera, always in play for the rebound during this showcase event. Defensively, the guard held his own at the point of attack, staying low. Additionally, Herrera was a tremendous help side defender, actively rotating early to double opponents to create steals. His wiry frame allowed him to physically compete against many guards at this event, an agent of chaos along the perimeter. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The lanky wing brings plenty of intrigue thanks to his abilities as a floor spacer, capable of rising up above incoming contests. Certainly not lacking confidence from distance, he attempted and contributed a few quick trigger attempts. His wide reach alongside the willing help side rotations make him an asset with defensive upside for Lewis-Palmer, certainly a name to follow given his shooting upside and dimensions. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Quesada took advantage of the openings in the lane, willing to go at the rim, even through potential contact. A steady finisher with either hand while going at the rim full speed, the wing brings size and quick decisonmaking to thee table.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Hutchinson is a fairly tall forward whose wide reach helped his group on the defensive end, adept at rotating quickly to alter opponent shot attempts. Whether in the half court or full court, he found numerous opportunities to contest attempts, forcing opponents into tough decisions down low. </p>
