Top Performers This Holiday Season

This holiday season was full of good basketball being played from a ton of high school basketball teams. In this article I will be talking about the top performers that impressed me with their play that contributed to the success of their respective teams.    Dorian likes to drive to the basket as he gets to the free throw line a lot. The UTSA commit is a three-level scorer that lets the game come to him and doesn't force shots. He cuts well off the ball as he doesn't stay stagnant in one place on offense. The display of playmaking he showed was impressive as well making the right passes to his teammates when they were open. Dorian also hustles for the ball rebounding on both ends.     [player_tooltip player_id='2558108' first='Jordan' last='Hill'] out of Fort Bend Ridge Point is a competitive guard that does a lot of things well on both ends of the floor. Defensively he is aggressive in his pursuit of the basketball especially in passing lanes and on the ball. In passing lanes, he had quite a few deflections anticipating passes thrown from opposing teams and on the ball, he does a good job staying in front of opposing players on the perimeter which turns into him stealing the ball out of opposing players hands. Offensively he specialized in being a facilitator and floor general that ran the offense for his team majority of the time when I watched him play. While being able to facilitate and be a floor general that ran the offense, he can also score ball at a good clip. If colleges are looking for a tough guard that competes at a high level Jordan is your guy.      [player_tooltip player_id='2556811' first='Noah' last='Pearce'] specializes in sharp shooting as he runs his lanes great picking his spots on the three-point line to where he finds himself open. Currently he is one of the best shooters I've seen this high school season. Any college coach that needs a shooter should definitely contact Noah. Along with his sharp shooting he can put the ball on the floor and create scoring opportunities for himself. Noah is definitely someone opposing teams should look for on the perimeter as he can get on hot streaks if left open.      Standing at 6'7 [player_tooltip player_id='2077351' first='Wesley' last='Wake'] is a very solid prospect that college coaches should definitely have their eyes on. At his height he has the versatility to play on the perimeter and inside the paint. On the perimeter he can shoot the three-point shot and he can drive to the basket putting the ball on the floor against opposing players. In the post he uses his height to get shots up over defenders above or below his height. With this being said he creates so many mismatches with his offensive versatility. Wesley should definitely be on college radars already if he isn't.      Aiden Williams recently captured the 1,000-point mark as a Barbers Hill High School Eagle showing that he is an offensive threat. I was able to watch Aiden play a few times along with seeing him post on Twitter (X). His most impressive performance was when I watched him get 22 points and 18 rebounds against a very good Cinco Ranch team. Offensively he is a good shooter on the perimeter that shoots at an efficient clip off the dribble and in catch and shoot situations. Due to his size he can finish in the paint at a great rate as well. Aiden also displays a versatile style of play along with his teammate [player_tooltip player_id='2077351' first='Wesley' last='Wake'] on both ends of the floor. Defensively he can defend on the perimeter and inside the paint. Aiden should definitely be looking at a lot of opportunities to play college basketball at the end of the season.
