<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are five prospects who performed at a high level during Sunday's action at Maple Grove Middle School.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2560462"],"_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-6811825835a59"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bennett operates with a smooth handle and a very fluid rhythm to his game. He is an excellent scorer of the basketball and is especially crafty in and around the paint. He is a tough shot-maker who is capable of scoring off the dribble and catch. I love the relentless dribble drives Bennett uses. He is constantly searching to break down the defense, get inside the paint, and open up opportunities not only for himself, but also for his teammates. Bennett has a complete offensive bag.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2833380"],"_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-6811825835aad"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Barnes is the ultimate three-level scorer. I love the mechanics in his jump shot. He elevates nicely, has a high release point, and shoots it with nice rotation. Barnes has a ton of confidence in his game, which gives him a competitive edge over his opponents. He finishes through contact around the rim skillfully and displays great ball security. Barnes plays with great intensity and was one of the most talented scorers I saw all weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2813428"],"_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-6811825835af6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Zuo is a defensive menace who is constantly looking to turn defense into offense. He keeps his hands and feet very active and his head always on a swivel. Zuo is not limited to only a defender, he can be quite the scoring threat for his team. He's crafty around the rim, uses efficient basket cuts and off-ball movements, and can hit the three-ball. Zuo is a well-rounded prospect. Keep an eye on him as he polishes his game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2417305"],"_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-6811825835b3b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kromah is an incredibly efficient and smart basketball player with very limited unnecessary movements. He plays with patience offensively and expert positioning defensively. The wing from [program_tooltip program_id='2076003' first='West' last='Central United'] also showed off some microwave scoring, getting hot fast and staying hot throughout the game. I like that Kromah won't force anything and lets the game come to him. Kromah is gifted with both hands as a playmaker/scorer, helping him find a counter move to each reaction from the D.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2838876"],"_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-6811825835b81"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Garrett is a superb ball-handler with a knack for getting downhill and creating easy looks. The lead guard is a great scorer who can finish around the rim effortlessly and has plenty of success from three-point territory. This dynamic, along with his passing skills, creates headaches for opposing defenders. Garrett plays about 5 inches above his actual height, allowing him to guard multiple positions and have a strong rebounding impact for his Westside Waves team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
