<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With 252 players, there is bound to be some new talent that was eventually going to be discovered.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There were 51 new players and here are some of the standouts that are not top-10 for position but are very good players in their own right.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Here are 7 Guard newcomers from the last four months that are off the radar:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2763998' first='Jacai' last='Reed'] <strong>Williams Field</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the top players recently at the high academic camp showed off his skills. He is a three level scorer with his level mid-range pull-ups, deep threes, quick burst in the lane and he has the green light mentality to take over a game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2767188' first='Aaron' last='Smith'] <strong>Chandler </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A bigger scoring guard is a two-way player. He can defend multiple positions with some toughness and twitchy reflexes to collect steals and scores. He will get to the basket with his dominant left hand, hit the occasional three and tough layups. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2767184' first='Tahli' last='El-Amin'] <strong>Chandler</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A super fast end to end point guard with some size and serious jets. He can score from the perimeter off the catch but definitely prefers to utilize his speed to get downhill to the rim with either hand. He will also cut off the ball and he is a quick on-ball defender. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2423061' first='King' last='Fields'] <strong>Pinnacle</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An undersized scoring long and lean guard is a straight bucket. He will fill it up with threes from beyond the arc with a nice looking stroke. He gets the ball off his hands quickly with the proper spin. He also uses floaters and he has a middle game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2812746' first='Cash' last='Hill']<strong> AZ Lutheran Academy</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another undersized scoring guard who is a straight sniper. He is one of those players that is always in shot ready mode to catch and shoot from the three in the corners or from straight on. He is also good on the break and has a sneaky quick first step to get to the basket. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2824200' first='Anthony' last='Garcia'] <strong>Chandler </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A super shifty and quick scoring point guard. He uses a tighter handle, with real pace to his game and advanced court vision. He can score with floaters, he is quick to get a step on his initial defender and scores it in the lane.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2832111' first='DeAmar'e' last='Petty'] <strong>Peoria (Pictured)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A quick on quick pure point guard is almost a throw back. He sees the court quickly and will thread the needle with pinpoint passes. His head is on a swivel and will throw some perfect bail-out dimes. He can hit the three plus get into the paint with a burst. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

With 252 players, there is bound to be some new talent that was eventually going to be discovered.
