<p class="text-gray-700">Staton will be an x-factor for Cherry Creek while stepping into his initial high season, bringing size and great skillset to become an offensive contributor in the near future. Swapping between the 4 and 5 for this group, he will be a versatile defensive option who holds up against much older opponents. Showing upside as a post scorer and spot-up shooter, Staton looks to be a difference maker out of the gates. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Although playing an undersized frontcourt role, Parker brings size and strength that goes beyond his measureables. A walking double double who crashes the glass on both ends, opposing defenses often struggled to keep him away from the paint. A capable option for dump passes at the rim, he threw down a couple dunks when provided an open lane. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Brown will be an influential name at ThunderRidge, bringing strength and mobility to defend a wide variety of opponents. Making strides as a spot-up shooter, the wing remains a valuable name within ThunderRidge's context. His defensive abilities will be sorely needed on this roster, which is skewed towards overwhelming backcourt depth. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Brown is such a helpful glue guy within Chaparral's context, maximizing his opportunities in a low usage role. Adept spacing the floor from the corners, he brings the height to shoot over incoming contests when necessary. Additionally a wiry strong defender who has a constant motor to fly around for contests, the 2025 prospect will be a valuable role player for this program. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Land looks to be an impactful name within Mountain Vista's rotation, bringing the size and strength to support this group on the glass. He found success in a wide variety of areas, although his post entry passes were especially dependable, setting up his option deep in the paint. The recipient of multiple blocks in this outing, he is a dependable held defender. In minutes with frontcourt teammates sit, his size will be essential to maintaining a positive defense with Mountain Vista. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Sekue brings the strength to match up with bigger opponents when necessary, comfortable against opponents 4-5 inches taller. Looking to get up for a few above the rim finishes, he is not wavered by a contest, looking to go right at opposing defenses. His defensive versatility will be essential to patching Rangeivew's defense, particularly while frontcourt teammates sit. <br></p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Morris is always lurking on the glass, getting into position early once the shot goes up. Set to take on the biggest opposing matchups for Denver East, he played bigger than expected at 6'5. He stays strong down low, not easily backed down by opposing forwards. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Kane stayed physical in the paint, bringing a low center of gravity to move around opponents. Capable spacing the floor off the catch, bringing value as a donwhill scorer versus closeouts. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Banek continues to bring value on the defensive end of the floor, bringing athleticism and urgency on that end of the floor. At 6'5, he is a switchable option which has already thrown off opposing playmakers who expect a driving lane.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Valentine was especially active with Rock Canyon, flying all over on shot contests or for loose balls. Already maximizing his wide reach to impact the game out of the box score, carving out a serviceable niche around a wealth of offensive creators. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">A new addition for Smoky Hill, Hassan looks to get plenty of opportunity as a perimeter shooter and multipositoinal defender. Right around 6'4 or 6'5, he brings notable size to hold his own on the defensive end, adding to this group's depth of switchable athletes. He worked hard on the glass and on defensive rotations, leveraging his frame and wide reach to instigate opposing scorers. </p>
