<p class="text-gray-700">Provancher and the Bulldogs welcome Linden on Monday. Brighton has as much frontcourt upside as anyone with <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2218051' first='Vincent' last='Salmon']</strong> and Provancher. It will be fun to see how they mesh this season. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Speaking of Brighton's post players, somebody has to advance the ball and get it to the bigs on the block. I saw Lovejoy this summer and came away impressed with his versatility and ball skills. I'm anxious to see his role on the team this season.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">We pretty much all know about [player_tooltip player_id='1438244' first='Drew' last='Blanton']. He's a terrific player. But Chelsea has some guys in the pipeline waiting to break out. Allen has always been a lightning rod shooter, but has really developed as a distributor and decision maker.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">That Chelsea pipeline? Boos is a huge part and a name that you'll be hearing over the next couple of years. He had some big time games this summer with the Midwest Stampede. Boos should play a big role in Chelsea's success this season.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">James and his Grosse Pointe South team takes on Romeo. James had a huge summer and a lot of people have been excited to see him this high school season. I've written about him a lot, but if a program wants a prospect that could be steal......tune in tomorrow.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">While you're watching James play, check out [player_tooltip player_id='2746379' first='Kooper' last='Richards']. With him at the point, the future is bright at Grosse Pointe South. Richards is a dangerous ballhandler for defenders, as he looks to and will touch the paint and make plays with the ball.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Gugle will lead Pine River against Kingsley on Monday. He has the chance to lead Pine River to a very nice season. Gugle is a bouncy matchup nightmare that can attack the defense in so many ways.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Smith will be another critical player on what I think could be a dangerous Pine River team. He's an unselfish player that makes winning plays. Smith can play on or off the ball and can defend both guard positions.</p>
