Early November Standouts That Impressed

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Earlier this month I was able to attend two top tournaments in the city of Houston that featured some top-level players. Shout out to the RCS Sports Season Opener and OTR Exposure Houston Tipoff </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2479867"],"_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":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67490b882892c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Miikka Muurinen is a very fluid big man standing at 6 foot 11 inches tall that showed his versatility against Oak Hill Academy. His athleticism showed on the glass, blocking shots and highlight dunks throughout the game. Throughout the game he never really had times where he didn't hustle which you want to see out of a prospect of his size. Offensively he has a smooth shot from the perimeter and finished plays in the paint at an elite rate. I wouldn't be surprised if he becomes a pro player in the near future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1422770"],"_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":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67490b8828ab0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"> Nicholas Randall is a 6-foot 8-inch power forward that excels in the painted area. First, he is a strong rebounder especially on offense giving AZ Compass second chance opportunities and finished in the paint. Nicholas is a strong finisher in the paint converting on a lot of paint touches. Majority of times he finished plays through contact as he got to the line multiple times against Oak Hill Academy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2252157"],"_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":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67490b8828b5c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"> [player_tooltip player_id='2252157' first='Isaiah' last='Santos'] has a huge motor that never stops on both ends of the floor which he displayed against [player_tooltip player_id='2382175' first='Xavier' last=''] Academy. Offensively he likes to play downhill in transition always staying on the attack to draw fouls or convert easy shots in the paint off defensive stops. He finishes plays in the paint with both hands while also finishing through contact. On both ends of the floor he showed tremendous hustle any minute he was on the floor diving for loose balls and staying active especially on defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":2674149,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Jose Martins ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'3u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Seven Lakes High School","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67490b8828c8c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jose Martins is a dynamic scorer that can score on all 3 levels. He gets by defenders at times with his quick handle to set himself up for drives to the basket or pull up jumpers. Jose got a couple stops defensively at the rim getting a couple deflections and on the perimeter by sliding his feet well against [player_tooltip player_id='2382175' first='Xavier' last=''] Academy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
