Tucker who had 12 points at the halftime break erupted with 30 points in the second half to help the [program_tooltip program_id='2845772' first='Hoopzters' last=''] to a 76-72 victory. He connected on 6 three-pointers in the game. Tucker really did a great job of playing on the ball and setting up his teammates on several occasions. He really doesn't get enough credit for his playmaking and passing skills out top. The [program_tooltip program_id='2845772' first='Hoopzters' last=''] had just 6 players in attendance today. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>McGraw leads [program_tooltip program_id='2134373' first='Team' last='USC Unleashed EYBL']</em></strong>: </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2863431,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-53-56-4550PM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-53-56-4550PM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2863431" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2027917' first='Hunter' last='McGraw']</strong> was efficient all weekend long for his squad. Hunter drove the ball to the basket and really did a nice job of scoring it from all 3 levels this weekend. He wanted the rock in his hand during crunch time and never backed away from a challenge. He was able to finish through contact and get to the foul line at a good clip here today. Hunter continues his solid play this spring on the Grassroots Circuit. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>3D Elite Trio Plays Well</em></strong>: </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2863427,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-54-42-6780PM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-54-42-6780PM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2863427" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1806931' first='Isaiah' last='Scott-Palacios']</strong> and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2405570' first='Keyon' last='Knowles']</strong> play really good together on the floor for small 3D Elite program from the Upstate. Scott-Palacios will surely not overwhelm you with athleticism while on the floor. Isaiah is a crafty scorer and by the time you look up he has 15-20 points on you. He was sporting a heavy right knee brace which seems he had for the past year back to the high school season with Greenwood Christian a SCISA program. Isaiah really does a good job of just scoring the rock one way or another. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2863426,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-54-58-5640PM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-54-58-5640PM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2863426" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Knowles didn't tear up the scoring column here today, but he does affect the game with his hustle all day long. Keyon a football player in the fall at Riverside HS is really quick with the ball in his hands. He does a great job of turning the corner and getting to the bucket. Keyon is built like a pocket-rocket on the hardwood. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2863428,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-54-28-0240PM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-54-28-0240PM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2863428" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>James Epting</strong> <strong>III</strong> attends Daniel HS and plays for his father on this local 3D Elite team.

Jackson who attends Brookland-Cayce HS originally plays with the [program_tooltip program_id='2078521' first='Palmetto' last='City Hurricanes']. Carter was effective from all over the floor today with his shot making. He was able to get the ball into the gaps and paint area when he wasn't dropping shots from the perimeter. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2863429,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-54-12-6620PM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/05/eZy-Watermark_14-05-2025_03-54-12-6620PM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2863429" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2147147' first='Luis' last='Echevarria']</strong> was running with Team USC 2027 Premier. Luis was all over the court it seemed at times manufacturing points on layups, jump shots and 2nd chance efforts. He constantly found himself around the ball to make a play. Luis did a nice job at times setting up his mates for some good looks along the way. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Hoops still needs to take a look at the 2026 Performers next.
