Minnesota Sophomore ID Camp: New Names to Know

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We go through each team and grab one name of a player that we learned about that we think could turn into a really good high school basketball player and maybe a solid prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 1: [player_tooltip player_id='2417419' first='Finn' last='Carlson'] of Minneapolis Washburn. Unfortunately, for the most part, all I really saw Finn do was run back and forth watching another player shoot. But Carlson did try and defend, he did make a couple shots the limited chances he got and I felt he tried to get the ball moving at times. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 2:  [player_tooltip player_id='2126170' first='Isaac' last='Feller'] of Bloomington Jefferson. Feller is about to be one of the better 2027 lead guards in the Metro this year. His assist total wasn't what it could have been as teammates didn't finish at a high rate but Feller broke down the defense and gave his teammates regular chances. Team 2: </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 3: [player_tooltip player_id='2126465' first='Tommy' last='Schabert'] of Farmington. Tommy isn't a new name as much as he was a dominant rebounder that I wanted to take some time to mention. He didn't get to touch the ball much but pouting wasn't what he did, he just worked harder to get to the ball on his own. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 4: William Thieman of Triton. I instantly have a higher opinion of what Triton can be in the next two years with William joining [player_tooltip player_id='2119578' first='Pierce' last='Petersohn'] on the floor. Thieman is an agile, active and skilled 6'5 frontcourt player that will be tough to stop next to Petersohn.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 5: [player_tooltip player_id='2052380' first='Trent' last='Miller'] of Waconia. The Waconia Wildcat showed versatility in a strong frame where he finished around the cup and was able to face up and make plays. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 6: [player_tooltip player_id='2381221' first='Carter' last='Lowis'] of LCWM. The 6'9 low post player made a nice impression. He gets up and down well, Carter has good length, and a good frame that can add strength without messing with his agility. Carter is surely a prospect to know. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 7: [player_tooltip player_id='2569231' first='Chaz' last='Clark'] of DeLaSalle. I loved the energy that Chaz played with: pushing the ball, defending with a lot of ball pressuring effort, and he went at the rim beating the help often. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 8: [player_tooltip player_id='2569267' first='Omar' last='Ali'] of DeLaSalle. Omar is a strong 6'7 five man that set some massive screens and players had a terrible time trying to score over him. He rebounded, finished at a high rate, and looks like a player that could develop. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 9:  [player_tooltip player_id='2417091' first='Isiah' last='Boyer'] of Becker. Boyer was not only the top name on his team but he is a new name and he was the name of one of the better performers at the event. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 10: [player_tooltip player_id='2126461' first='Cal' last='Spencer'] of Spring Lake Park. Spencer is a player that I think is going to make a strong playmaking impact soon. He's a smooth player with a nice touch and the ability to playmake. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 11: [player_tooltip player_id='2138578' first='Vincent' last='Bottolene'] of Hopkins. The Royals don't have a ton of size in their program right now but Bottolene seems like a player that some time soon will be able to help the team in a lot of frontcourt ways. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 12: [player_tooltip player_id='2140577' first='Carson' last='Kuchenbecker'] of Holy Family. At about 6'4 or 6'5, Carson is a long forward that defended well and looked comfortable facing up to the rim and defending stepping away from the paint to defend. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 13: [player_tooltip player_id='2126140' first='Zach' last='Krusemark'] of Stillwater. I though Zach had a very solid showing at the camp with strong screens, quality rim finishing, good low post defense and quality rebounding efforts. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 14: [player_tooltip player_id='2447075' first='Markus' last='Kure-O'Reilly'] of Maple Grove. At 6'6, strong, agile and playing with a ton of effort, Markus was very productive at the camp. He's the type of player that looks like he could be a big rebound number, active defender type. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 15: [player_tooltip player_id='2140618' first='Griffin' last='Carroll'] of Totino-Grace. Griffin hit three triples in both games I saw, I thought he moved the basketball in a way that helped teammates, and he defended in a disruptive way. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Team 16: [player_tooltip player_id='2569263' first='Musa' last='Bamba'] of Park Center. A Park Center guard that attacked the rim with success throughout the event. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
