<p class="text-gray-700">The 6'7" 2025 forward was the top individual performer at the event as he scored a game-high 43 points in the [program_tooltip program_id='2076546' first='Greyhounds' last=''] victory over Lutheran North. He was just as dominant at the defensive end of the court as he blocked numerous shots as North plays continued to try him with one attack after another into the lane. He showed a nice offensive bag as he scored on low post moves and offensive rebounds. He also hit a one-legged fadeaway jumper from the elbow and he stepped out and hit a 3-pointer. To top it all off, he was money from the free throw line as he made 21 of his 22 attempts.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The 6'9" 2027 power forward scored 16 points in the Panthers victory over St. Mary's in the final game of the event. One of his biggest assets as a player is his ability to run the court. He is consistently rim-running and he was able to convert a few buckets. He had some tough finishes around the basket and he is an excellent rebounder. He is one of the top young frontcourt prospects in the state and he is still getting better with each game.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">A sturdy 6'4" 2025 forward who scored 12 points and led the Jr. Bills to a victory over Hazelwood Central. His thick body and versatile skill set make him a matchup problem for defenders. He opened up the game with a 3-pointer off the pick and pop. He took a defender off the dribble into the lane and scored on a finger roll. He can score in the paint with good footwork and he makes good use of head and shoulder fakes. He is also a tough rebounder in traffic.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">A 6'5" 2027 forward who scored 13 points and had a double-double against Hazelwood Central. He is a tenacious rebounder who really sniffs offensive boards. He has a quick jump and he will get out of his area to corral rebounds. He was also capable of driving it from the high post and scoring with a strong finish. His activity rate is always high which leads to positive results.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">A 6'6" 2025 forward who is a steady force on the interior for a Phoenix team that is full of talented guards. He is a good rebounder and a reliable scoring threat in close. He has a nice jump hook over the left shoulder. He can also hit the 10-footer off the catch. He does a good job of using his big body to carve out space for rebounding position.</p>
