MLK Invitational: Sunday Standouts

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are the standouts from Sundays games at Homewood Flossmoor's Martin Luther King Invitational!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2298580' first='Kaydin' last='Williams'] (Lincoln Park) 2026 6'2</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lincoln Park is a team full of talented players and any night someone different can step up and lead them in scoring. Tonight Kaydin was the guy. His scoring from the perimeter and drives to the rack were always on time in what was a very tight game until the 4th quarter. Williams is a strong guard who can get in the lane with either hand. From three he stretched his range out to the volleyball line. I was very surprised at how well he muscled through contact and got to the free throw line. Kaydin scored 22 points in the win over Bloom.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1552393' first='Gabriel' last='Sularski'] (Lemont) 2026 6'7</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gabriel has been balling lately and Sunday afternoon was no different. In the game with Niles North Sularski was useful in many ways. His size and ability to get downhill to score and facilitate were a huge factor in Lemont keeping the game close. Gabe was lethal from three knocking down four from behind the line. What he has improved is his passing when touching the paint. Gabe made some difficult passes while on the move to his teammates which showed how well his IQ has improved. Sularski finished with 27 points, 4 assists, 3 steals, and 1 block</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2105218' first='Payton' last='Edwards'] (Bloom) 2025 6'2</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Edwards is a tough guard who gets after it from the opening tip until the final buzzer. He's a throwback type of guard that scores a lot off reading and reaction. The lefty used several turnaround jumpers to score against a very aggressive Lincoln Park team. His shifty handle and touch when near the basket was a needed counter for Bloom. As a defender he made some key effort plays with his 5 steals and 2 blocks. He led the Trojans with 21 points while also grabbing 4 boards.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1845360' first='Rashaun' last='Porter'] (Depaul) 2026. 6'6</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rashaun was a key factor in DePaul's victory over the smaller Vashon team. His energy and ability to crash the boards were major factors for the Rams taking an early lead. Porter had several plays when he would rebound the ball and with a strong grip turn and score while getting fouled in the process. He is a traditional inside presence that opens the floor for the guards to attack in the lane and create spacing for them to make shots. Rashaun had 16 points and 5 rebounds in the convincing win over St. Louis power Vashon.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Terron Garrett (Vashon) 2025 6'5</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Garrett hasn't been one of the names you hear as much when it comes to the [program_tooltip program_id='2076046' first='Wolverines' last=''] but he was the main guy that stood out on Sunday. An athletic stretch-the-floor guy who made several three-pointers in the contest. He did a good job at spacing on the perimeter and scoring when the ball was swung his way. Terron would also nail a nice mid-range from around the free-throw line. He was very active defensively but it wasn't enough as Vashon lost by double digits.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1385296' first='Yaris' last='Irby'] (Niles North) 2025</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Irby is a stat stuffer who scored from all three levels today in the win over Lemont. He's always at his best off the dribble using the slick handle and good upper-body strength to score in the lane. When Lemont sat back on him to prevent drives he started to hit deep bombs from three. His feel for the game is noticeable but his knack for impacting in other ways goes underappreciated. Irby also pulled in 9 rebounds, racked up 4 assists, and swiped 3 steals. He led the Vikings with 24 points.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
