<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1874810' first='Jayden' last='Riley'] (Yorkville Christian)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Riley continues to elevate his game each time we see him play.  He had a strong showing in the fall at the Prep Hoops Camp and has continued that momentum into his junior campaign.  He has always been a high level passer, but his ability to score in bunches has been shown this season.  Trending as one of the best lead guards in the class.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1977254' first='Luke' last='Smith'] (Althoff)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Smith is a combo guard from the 618 that is effective at playing both on and off the ball.  Plus shooter off the catch that can handle it with some creativity along with being a solid passer making good decisions as a distributor.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2540107' first='Jamir' last='Ratliff'] (Hillcrest)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Ratliff is a lead guard for Hillcrest that is a good combination of scorer and passer.  Plays well off his brother who is a fellow guard at Hillcrest.</p>
