Standing at 6-7, Watts brings both size and mobility to the floor, making him a threat on both ends of the court. His electric athleticism allows him to finish at the rim, often using his impressive vertical to score over defenders in traffic. Whether it's spinning to avoid a defender or attacking downhill, Watts looks increasingly comfortable handling the ball. Defensively, his long arms make him a natural shot blocker, and he disrupts passing lanes with deflections. He's positioned to take on a big role at Olympia, either as a primary playmaker or a key defensive anchor. As his shooting continues to develop, Watts could become a dynamic two-way player capable of impacting any game.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2125499"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6709838ea92fb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Alberich is a perimeter sniper who's proving to be one of the best shooters in the 2027 class. His ability to shoot from deep makes him a constant threat, especially if defenders give him space. Alberich doesn't hesitate to pull the trigger from beyond the arc, and his shooting touch has been on full display at recent showcases. He stood out at our PH Freshman Showcase, where he confidently knocked down contested threes and finished as one of the top scorers. With his smooth shooting stroke and fearless mentality, Alberich has the potential to generate serious college interest as he continues to develop consistency heading into the fall season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2126655"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6709838ea933f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Holcomb left a lasting impression with his three-point shooting ability the last time I got eyes on him. Holcomb is a left-handed guard who can score in multiple ways, whether driving to the basket or spotting up from beyond the arc. His ability to hit tough shots and his high basketball IQ set him apart from other shooters in the class. Holcomb isn't afraid of big moments and thrives under pressure, making him a player to watch as he heads into his high school career. His offensive versatility and shooting range make him an important piece for St. Johns Country Day.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2125477"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6709838ea937d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">At 6-5 and 180 pounds, Reach has an intriguing physical profile for a 2027 guard. His combination of length and developing skill set makes him a player with a lot of potential upside. Reach showed flashes of his scoring ability at our PH Freshman Showcase, knocking down key buckets and making an impact on both ends of the floor. With his size and ability to handle the ball, Reach has the potential to grow into a versatile guard who can impact the game in multiple ways. As he continues to work on his frame and overall game, Reach is a prospect to monitor closely over the next few years.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2532283"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6709838ea93d7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">As a combo guard with good size, Bhadouriah's ability to both score and create for his teammates makes him a valuable asset. He has solid handles, which allow him to break down defenders and get into the paint, where he finishes strong at the rim. Bhadouriah's decision-making and court vision help him set up scoring opportunities for himself and others, and his reliable jump shot forces defenders to respect him on the perimeter. With his ability to draw fouls and convert on and-1 opportunities, Bhadouriah has a complete offensive game that should continue to develop as he gains more experience.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2125482"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6709838ea9416"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Roca is establishing himself as one of the best shooters in the 2027 class. His ability to consistently hit three-pointers, even in unstructured camp settings, sets him apart as a dangerous scoring threat. Roca's shooting stroke is smooth and efficient, allowing him to score in bunches from beyond the arc. At 6-3, he is good-sized as a guard and will play in the SIAA, where he'll face some tough competition. Roca has plenty of time for growth as a rising prospect, but his shooting ability already gives him a strong foundation on which to build.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
