He seems to always know where his teammates are and he's able to deliver pinpoint passes to set up the shot. Defensively, he's constantly on the move with hands that are magnets for the ball, turning defense into offense with tipped passes, deflections, and steals.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2397948"],"_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-67229c6533eb9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bryant shines, effortlessly handling the pressure. With a defender on him, he is always drawing in the defense only to break through with his ability to attack the basket, using his body to absorb contact. His free throw routine is clockwork, consistent and reliable.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2406697"],"_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-67229c6533efc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jaxson runs the court showcasing his strength and agility. He swiftly moves into transition off turnovers. His ability to drive to the basket and finish at the rim is impressive, and when the defense slacks, he's ready to knock down jump shots. A true team player, he doesn't hesitate to distribute the ball. Defensively, he's a hustler looking for chances to cause havoc and create turnovers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2428019"],"_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-67229c6533f35"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Koch's game shines with a high basketball IQ, always spotting scoring chances or making smart passes. His offensive play is strong as he lures defenders with his footwork, creating space to score. He plays well using fundamentals such as playing off two feet. He plays with poise and control inside while looking to score.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2382041"],"_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-67229c6533f6d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jaryus shines as a point guard in a fast-paced game with an eye for both scoring and facilitating. His ability to manage the ball under pressure from opposing guards is impressive. With a good basketball IQ, he makes smart passes without forcing plays. His defensive stance is marked by effort, consistently challenging attackers with effective contests. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

The class of 2028 freshmen players are already making their mark and becoming key contributors to their teams. It's clear these young talents are ready to ball.
