<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2417305' first='Romeo' last='Kromah'] - [program_tooltip program_id='2076003' first='West' last='Central United'] - The six-foot-one-inch 2028 Moorhead guard Kromah is a step above the rest athletically and he has really grown as a ball handler from the fall. At Moorhead as a freshman the way they used him was energy off the bench, and even used him to guard inside. WC United in a zone press used him in the middle of the floor and his quickness and length allowed him to pick off passes and make plays like a football safety. Kromah's jump shot seems to be smoothing out a bit and certainly looks improved from last year when I saw him at a Prep Hoops Next event.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMR9wBe1mo0u0026amp;ab_channel=StreetHistoryVideos","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMR9wBe1mo0&amp;ab_channel=StreetHistoryVideos </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bryson Minta - Real Phenom RG - Minta is a 2028 six-foot-two-inch wing from DeLaSalle. I really like his defensive presence and MInta showed good anticipation blocking shots and deflecting passes. Minta's offensive game still seems to be coming along as he can improve his ball handling and shooting. He is a solid athlete and moves well around the floor.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2833380' first='Dereon' last='Barnes'] - Westside Waves - The six-foot-one-inch 2028 guard from Burnsville shows good instincts in pushing the ball in transition, has some skills going to the rim and finishing, and passes the ball in creator type situations.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2414516' first='Kaiden' last='Deveaux'] - [program_tooltip program_id='2075685' first='Minnesota' last='Select'] Krona - The 2028 Totino-Grace guard showed off his good passing ability, athleticism on defense, and strong handle with the ball. Last year I saw Deveaux a few different times on the Circuit and he seems to have grown a bit, and is much stronger as a point guard. The six-foot-one-inch Deveaux showed promise as a shooter and his motion looks smooth.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2397567' first='Brody' last='Cook'] - Hoop Habits - The six-foot-four-inch 2028 forward from Maple Grove Cook showed excellent shooting throughout the weekend. One game in particular, Cook hit nine 3-pointers and scored 41 points for Hoop Habits in a rout over [program_tooltip program_id='2075310' first='Northstar' last='Titans'] Nelson. Cook in other games showed his ability to stretch the floor and let the ball fly.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8OAmiSDTpU","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8OAmiSDTpU </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2673170' first='Covin' last='Winter'] - Chippewa Valley Select - The six-foot-five-inch Winter showed ability to stretch the floor, rebound, run and move side-to-side, and even put the ball on the floor and drive from the perimeter. The 2028 Mankato Loyola Catholic forward was a bright spot for Chippewa Valley Select that in a game versus [program_tooltip program_id='2075685' first='Minnesota' last='Select'] Krona struggled on the perimeter. Winter I'd like to see him extend more when finishing and use his length more to his advantage at and around the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2360699' first='Reace' last='Boll'] - [program_tooltip program_id='2076003' first='West' last='Central United'] - The 2028 six-foot-four-inch forward from Moorhead looked very comfortable catching on the perimeter, turning and facing, and putting the ball on the floor. Boll moves well for a forward and shows strong promise developing as a match-up problem for forwards with poor foot speed.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2523906' first='Jacob' last='Smith'] - [program_tooltip program_id='2523807' first='Breakers' last='Basketball Club'] - Smith is a six-foot guard from Forest City, Iowa that in a game versus [program_tooltip program_id='2075674' first='Minnesota' last='Heat'] Dedina he scored 14 points in a variety of ways. Attacked the hoop a few times and hit multiple 3-pointers. Smith has a solid handle and plays hard.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2377585' first='Nolan' last='Girard'] - Hoop Habits - Girard is a 2028 six-foot guard from Benilde St. Margaret's that could grow into a solid secondary ball handler. Girard shoots the ball well from the perimeter, and makes good basketball plays with the ball. Either attacking rightly or passing to open teammates for good chances.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueEot_Cc6scu0026amp;ab_channel=StreetHistoryVideos2.0","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueEot_Cc6sc&amp;ab_channel=StreetHistoryVideos2.0 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2560528' first='Ryan' last='Steinke'] - [program_tooltip program_id='2075685' first='Minnesota' last='Select'] Krona - The 2028 Mankato West guard showed good court awareness, toughness and can stretch the floor with his shooting ability. Steinke played some varsity minutes this past season and was a solid contributor on JV.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2837250' first='Zeid' last='Ndiaye'] - MN Heat Dedina - The 2028 center Ndiaye has good size at six-foot-seven-inches and length. The Concordia Academy freshman moves laterally well and can run the floor. Ndiaye has already made good progress as a player this spring, and he's projecting nicely with his natural athletic abilities.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

Romeo Kromah Romeo Kromah Romeo Kromah 6'3" | SG/PF Moorhead | 2028 State MN - West Central United - The six-foot-one-inch 2028 Moorhead guard Kromah is a step above the rest athletically and he has really grown as a ball handler from the fall. At Moorhead as a freshman the way they used him was energy off the bench, and even used him to guard inside. WC United in a zone press used him in the middle of the floor and his quickness and length allowed him to pick off passes and make plays like a football safety.
