He was all over the court making defenders look like they had no chance. His dribble drive and crossover moves were on another level, allowing him to blow past multiple defenders. Once he got to the rim, it was almost automatic—he finished strong every time, whether it was a quick layup or absorbing contact. Dever also showed off his mid-range game, stopping on a dime and knocking down jumpers with confidence</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":"Jaiden Davis","_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":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77246","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"James Irwin","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"LOB Elite","_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-67f4593fc75b3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Davis was definitely the standout for his undersized team on day 2. The kid can flat out shoot with great touch on the ball, and his range was impressive. He was knocking down three pointers from just about everywhere on the court. It wasn't just about the long ball, Davis also showed he could get to the rim and finish strong with some smooth layups. On top of that, he was great in transition, bringing the ball up with ease and getting his shot off quickly to put up some easy buckets. His overall game was really impressive, especially considering the size of his team</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2402117"],"_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-67f45f363ef1e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Boston was in complete control during his first game of the day, and it was clear he was ready to dominate. He kept his team in the mix, showing his offensive power and leadership. On offense, he was a force and there was no stopping him when he drove to the rim. Every time he took it to the basket, he finished strong, making it look easy. Boston also knocked down his three pointers, draining shots over multiple defenders. Defensively he was active, picking up steals left and right, and turning those into fast breaks. Once he was in transition, he was all downhill attacking the rim with ease and keeping defenders on their heels. It was a complete performance from Boston, and he had his team clicking on both ends of the floor</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2401106"],"_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-67f45f363ef73"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Shepherd had an incredible Sunday, playing a huge role in his team's undefeated run through the tournament. In his first game he was on fire, making a massive impact with a 4-possession stretch that turned the game in his team's favor. He knocked down two big three pointers and followed that up with two smooth floaters in the lane. Shepherd really took over offensively in a tight game, scoring at will and keeping his team in control when it mattered most. By game 2, his complete game was on full display. He wasn't just shooting from deep but he was attacking the rim with even more aggression. Off the wing, Shepherd was driving hard to the basket, finishing through contact with some acrobatic moves. His ability to score in so many ways, combined with his all-around game, was a huge factor in his team's success</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2257269"],"_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-67f45f363efbb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gaddis only played one game on Sunday, but he made every minute count, almost single-handedly keeping his team in the game. His shooting was a huge factor knocking down big threes from beyond the arc. It wasn't just the long ball as Gaddis was also driving to the rim, drawing contact, and finishing strong at the basket. He really showed his ability to attack in multiple ways. When the game got tight late he stayed cool under pressure, knocking down free throws to keep his team in striking distance. From deep shots to finishing at the rim and stepping up at the line, his full offensive arsenal was on display, and it nearly helped his team pull off the win</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

On a day when the top teams were battling it out, these players were the difference makers. From clutch shots to explosive plays, they were the stars who shined brightest when it mattered most. Their performances were the key to their team's success, and without them the outcome could've been very different.
