<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is Part II in our review of prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania who increased their recruiting stock during September.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1454260"],"_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-66fcaf80e9662"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The 2023-24 season was a tremendous year for Graham. Still, after the outstanding performances turned in last month by this “big guard,” we predict an even bigger sophomore campaign lies ahead. At events like the Never Forget Classic as well as the CoBL Interstate Shootout, Graham's versatile offensive game was unstoppable. He drained threes, exploded to the hoop for transition buckets and delivered timely dimes. Graham's crafty handles and high IQ enabled him to continually torch opponents for lay-ins or mid-range pull-ups. Graham also showed a fantastic ability to score through contact. Last month Graham proved to be an underrated rebounder too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2028256"],"_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-66fcaf80e9717"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In September Russell broke the glass on an attacking approach and improved offensive skill set we had never seen from him before. As the No. 1 option for AR, he frequently worked as a primary ball handler and used a deep bag of moves to get to his mid-range spots or all the way to the hoop. Russell also did a remarkable job of pushing the rock on the fast break for scores and assists. When he played off-the-ball, Russell knocked home threes from all around the arc. He also executed straight line drives from the wing and then converted through fouls. Russell's size and polished footwork enabled him to score on quick post ups too. If Russell continues to play at this elite level, he could be a 1^st Team All-PCL selection after the 2024-25 season.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1460801"],"_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-66fcaf80e97a1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This fall Sniras had a habit of posting 20-spots at events like the Big 64 Showcase as well as the CoBL Interstate Shootout. In the half-court Sniras produced point at every level and was especially effective off the bounce. When needed, Sniras used his length and solid frame to push his way past defenders for lay-ins. But Sniras can do more than just score. At times, he ran as a point guard and delivered creative, live dribble assists. Sniras draws a host of double teams each game. His ability to anticipate that extra defensive attention and swing the ball to the open teammate is unique. He also was a plus rebounder at both ends of the floor. His vocal leadership is obvious too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1874234"],"_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-66fcaf80e9823"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">New team, same dynamic Williams. September saw this versatile guard take the court for the first time with his new Coatesville teammates and Williams did not miss a beat. At the big 64 Showcase and the CoBL Interstate Shootout he torched opponents with his transition scoring and distributing. When Williams looked to score on the fast break, he finished at the rim in a variety creative of ways. In the half-court Williams' elusive handles created opportunities for himself and his teammates. The accuracy and deep range on his jump shot provided floor spacing for Coatesville. Despite all his scoring skills, this fall Williams showed he is a willing passer with a high IQ too.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
