<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Earlier today we published our <a href="https://prephoops.com/pennsylvania/rankings/2028-rankings/">initial Class of 2028 rankings</a> for Pennsylvania.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is a review of Watch List (WL) prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania included in those ranking who college coaches need to scout in the month of May.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2843117"],"_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-6812c4b153b04"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The long and well-builtBare is classified as a small forward. However, if you watch Bare for an extended period, it is easy to that his skill set is best described as that of a lethal three-point shooting wing prospect. Bare can drain spot ups all day, is effective working off pick-n-pop action and is a threat to splash threes on the secondary break. In addition to popping triples, Bare will crash the offensive glass for put backs and score via dives to the cup. This past winter Bare rained in 5 threes on his way to a season high 19 points versus Lancaster Catholic. &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2531094"],"_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-6812c4b153b62"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Myers is an intriguing stretch-4 prospect with a solid frame. On the perimeter, he can knock down spot ups and trail threes. At 6'6” and with his lengthy wingspan, Myers has no issue shooting over defenders. Myers can also mix-it-up on the interior. His size and polished footwork enable him to score via drop steps, flip hooks and spin moves. Myers is a force on the glass at both ends. During his freshman campaign, Myers scored a season high 8 points (2 threes) versus Hatboro-Horsham. This spring Myers has impressed on the HGSL circuit as well as during PW Spring League action.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2774556"],"_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-6812c4b153bac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Thanks to his athleticism, high motor and scoring skills, this Swiss Army knife stuffed the stat book during his freshman season (10 ppg. and 4 rpg.). Slaughter can score at all three-levels, competes on the boards at both ends and is a creative passer. His quick burst and tight handles enable Slaughter to blow past his man and put pressure on the help defense. Once Slaughter gets downhill, he can navigate his way to the cup for a lay-in or kick out to open teammates. If opponents elect to sag off Slaughter, he will drain threes all game. Slaughter is an effective open court scoring prospect too. A host of those fast break opportunities are jump started by steals and deflections Slaughter generates. In 2024-25 Slaughter notched a season high 19 points (1 three) against Newport.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2735402"],"_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-6812c4b153bec"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rush is aridiculously accurate three-point shooter who earned a spot in Marple's first five for opening night of this freshman year. This past season Rush repeatedly proved he could handle that starting role. He posted 23 points during Marple's defeat of Episcopal Academy as well as 15 points (5 triples) in a win over Radnor and 15 points (4 threes) in a victory against Conestoga. Rush's quick release and non-stop off-ball movement combined with his high IQ make him difficult to guard on the perimeter. His ability to use a head / ball fake, followed by a side dribble into space for a clean look is impressive. Rush excels at knocking down transition threes too because he does a fantastic job of running to his spots, getting his feet set and then shooting the rock.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
