<p class="text-gray-700">The 6'2" guard demonstrated strong ball-handling skills, effectively protecting the ball while attacking the interior. Bell also had a standout moment when he received a hand-off, cut the corner perfectly, drove downhill, and finished with a score.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">I first saw Reese at last year's Freshman Showcase and continued to catch him throughout the grassroots season. He effectively uses a reverse move around the rim to avoid defenders. While he's a strong driver, he needs to work on his ball and body control. Reese has a good-looking shot from distance and a natural ability to play physically with a strong nose for the ball.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Green plays a physical style of game, and the big-bodied guard competed. He used his strength well to collapse defenses and apply pressure around the rim. With good form on his shot, Green connected from beyond the arc and in the mid-range. Defensively, he provided constant pressure, whether by picking up the ball-handler right across half-court or using his quickness to frustrate opponents on-ball. Green was doing it all.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">This event was my introduction to Montgomery, and I came away impressed. Offensively, he has a lightning-quick pull-up that's tough for defenders to guard, and he hits his shots at an impressive percentage. His ball-handling is nifty, and he's quick and crafty when attacking the paint. Montgomery plays at a high pace and consistently produces. He's definitely a player to watch as he continues to develop.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Chittaro brought high energy to the court, which boosted his effectiveness. In transition, he consistently outran the defense with his speed, and on the other end, he sprinted back to disrupt what would have been easy scoring attempts. It was impressive to see his ability to recognize when to push the pace. Chittaro also has a pure shot from three-point range, making him a well-rounded threat.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The big man from Kaneland excelled on the glass. While some might attribute it solely to his height, Hassan's success comes from finding a body, clearing the paint, and going after rebounds. His height and length create significant challenges for guards attempting close-range shots. Offensively, Hassan displayed an effective spin move from the post, which consistently opened up clean looks for him at the rim.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Williams stood out with his ball-handling and perimeter pressure. He demonstrated a skilled hesitation move that effectively froze his defenders for a quick attack. His footwork through the defense was controlled and precise. When driving to the hoop, Williams showcased his ability to elevate strongly and quickly.</p>
