I got my first real good look at this young man last October at the Prep Hoops Expo. Lindquist has the ability to make plays off the bounce as well as with the pass. He can put it on the floor and attack the rim, staying a threat to dish to an open teammate at any time.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1935093"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6807747c556de"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Plummer will be a must see player with the WM Premier 3SGB. I guess it's time to reminisce at the Rumble In The Rapids. I want to say I've watched Plummer in 3 states over his grassroots career. And every time I've been impressed. He can be a consistent perimeter scorer, but doesn't force the issue, creating and taking good looks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1890555"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6807747c55727"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Pratl will be coming to Grand Rapids with REAL 17u Select. If my memory serves me correctly, I first saw Pratl 2 or 3 years ago at Rumble In The Rapids. I'm looking forward to hitting the reset and seeing him again at the same venue. I really like what Pratl can do in the open floor, both leading the break with the ball and filling the wing.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1588163"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6807747c5576c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Zickert is a player that I've covered for about half a decade now. He showed 2 weeks ago that he can be an absolute force on the defensive end of the floor. His physicality and relentlessness on the defensive end really frustrates opponents. Zickert has the ability to defend 1 on 1 the length of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1420408"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-680a2f53458b1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Enjoy seeing Pleyer in Michigan this summer because he'll be headed to The Rock in Florida come this fall. This is a young man that has graced more showcase events that I've scouted than fingers on my hands. He can be seen with the GR Storm 17u UAA team this weekend. Pleyer is a solid overall athlete with an A+ game between the ears to go with it.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1588185"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-680a2f534590b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Slack was 1 of the top guards in the PH Circuit last year. Players and coaches know it and they have run defenders at him. Slack's handles, passing and ability to step through the double are strong enough that it won't be an issue. You can see this year that he has the ability to initiate the offense and play the point.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

This is a pretty loaded field at the Prep Hoops Circuit's Rumble In The Rapids. There are a lot of really good guards to see in the 17u division. We're going to take a look at a few examples of the talent on the perimeter.
