At 6'5 he moves well laterally, is a threat in transition, and has some bounce at the rim. He showed off that intriguing combination of size and athleticism when he moved his feet on the perimeter and blocked a jump shot, before running the length of the floor for a two handed dunk. Has a chance to develop into a quality player for Zimmerman over the next two seasons.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1553918"],"_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-68128260b56cb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Now at Osseo, Quincy broke out during his junior season. The 6'3 guard was aggressive all weekend long attacking the basket for Team FSA, and was a consistent scoring presence for them. He has a strong frame on the wing, and when attacking is able to get defenders on his hip and just pin them there as he glides to the rim. Plays with poise and patience, doing a nice job of recognizing his defender's positioning and taking the space that's available. Showcased a smooth mid-range jumper when driving lanes weren't available.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2465512"],"_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-68128260b5712"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2465512' first='Duke' last='King'] is incredibly shifty for his size at 6'4. He can float to one direction, and then hit you with a lightning quick crossover to attack the opposite way. Plays off two feet around the rim, helping him power his way up through contact, where he can finish with either hand. Not afraid to pick up and defend smaller guards out on an island, and his long arms help him come up with steals. Showcased his bounce against Minnesota Lightning when he poked the ball free and took flight for a two handed slam in transition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1560746"],"_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-68128260b5755"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ryker continues to put together some big performances for [program_tooltip program_id='2075672' first='Minnesota' last='Fury'] this spring. The 6'4 wing just finds ways to get two feet in the paint, and from there sees the floor so well to create for his teammates. He can thread the needle to a big with a bounce pass, can kick it out to a shooter, or can simply score over the top with a floater. Ryker is capable of finishing with either hand, and by playing off two feet he keeps his options available at all times. You don't find many guys his size who can pass like Ryker can, as he has the vision to create a good look for a teammate where no one else sees an opening.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2126450"],"_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-68128260b5794"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gavin's play may have gone a bit under-the-radar this past winter playing alongside some talented seniors, but he's now showing what he's capable of with the ball in his hands more. He's a talented passer capable of playing a bit of point guard at times, as he sees the floor well and has the size to zip in passes over the top of the defense. Without the ball he cuts hard to open up some easy looks at the rim, while also being able to stretch the floor from three. He helped lead Hoop Habits Elite to a 3-1 record on the weekend. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2145758"],"_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-68128260b57d5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another above-the-rim threat out of Zimmerman, Thomas was one of the most explosive wings in the gym. On Friday night he showed off that bounce as he cut hard to the basket and exploded for a powerful dunk against [program_tooltip program_id='2075672' first='Minnesota' last='Fury']. He does a nice job of moving without the ball, whether he's cutting backdoor or sprinting his lane in transition. Has the athleticism to defend a variety of spots on the floor, and the instincts to jump passing lanes for steals.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='2815371' first='Owen' last='Potts']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77247","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"St. Peter","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"[program_tooltip program_id='2075704' first='MN' last='Rise']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68128260b586d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Owen is a lefty floor stretcher who can make defenders pay for giving him too much space. Against Minneapolis Central on Sunday he afternoon, he came up with a pair of clutch buckets down the stretch to help his team complete a comeback win. He leaked out for a transition finish, and then connected on a three with a defender closing out hard on him. Showcased some skill in the post as well, as he has a strong frame to take opposing wings into the paint and work his way into deep position to finish.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
