Everyone in the state got a taste of just how high Bolden's potential is in the in-state 2027 class with him averaging a double-double of 18.7 points and 11.3 rebounds. Bolden, a 6-foot-8 power forward, can dominate a game consistently at multiple levels on the floor. He is an excellent rebounder with great touch and feel in the paint. This could be a very important summer for Bolden. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Potential Breakout Player: [player_tooltip player_id='2140368' first='Griffin' last='Ott-Large']</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There was an unlimited amount of players that we could have placed here in this section, honestly. But looking at the roster, the player that seems to be picking up the most steam is LaPorte guard [player_tooltip player_id='2140368' first='Griffin' last='Ott-Large']. Coming off a season where he led LaPorte as a sophomore with 16.9 ppg, Ott-Large started to get his name known a little bit as the season progressed. His size in the backcourt and high-level playmaking skills make him such an intriguing prospect and we fully expect for him to be a guy that really stands out this year with EG10. Keep an eye on this guy. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Quick Hitters</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2414872' first='Aiden' last='Woods'] - Appeared in 11 games this past season for Pike and one of the players on this EG10 team with the most potential. A consistent scoring threat that can get hot in a hurry. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2477597' first='Jeremiah' last='Murphy'] - Only appeared in a handful of games for North Central this past season but could be a under-the-radar piece of this EG10 backcourt. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2140420' first='Nash' last='Sigmund'] - The 6'1 guard started to come into his own a bit during his sophomore season at Decatur Central with his 9.8 ppg. One of the best catch-and-shoot threats in Indiana's Class of 2027.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2140339' first='Carter' last='Crum'] - Crum will be one of the impactful front court player on this EG10 roster this AAU season. He is coming off a strong season at Parke Heritage with his 12.6 ppg and 7.0 rpg. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2140412' first='Kyle' last='Edwards'] - Edwards is a player that I would not be shocked if he became the breakout player on EG10 this year. Solid sophomore year at Whitleland, Edwards is an athletic, tough wing prospect that enjoys drawing contact and scoring. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2381200' first='Levi' last='Lindeman'] - Lindeman is another player I could easily see breaking out this year for EG10. Played a strong role as a sophomore at Bloomington North, Lindeman is a highly skilled guard with athleticism and is able to score at a high level off the catch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Malachi Van</strong> - Probably the most unknown player on this roster. Did not see a ton of action this past season at Greenfield-Central. A chance to show what he can do this spring/summer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Zach McCormack</strong> - A true big at 6'8 with a lot of potential. Had a solid role for Bishop Chitard this past season with 4.4 points and 5.0 rebounds per game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
