Despite the uncertainty surrounding where he is playing, the performances from [player_tooltip player_id='1679970' first='Yale' last='Davis'] have never dropped. He has been a standout performer wherever he has played including his first session on the EYBL circuit with Jet Academy. In his debut, Yale dropped 16 points on an efficient 6-12 shooting. Davis scored a session-high 21 points against Meanstreets while drawing 7 fouls and only turning the ball over once.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2405569' first='Sam' last='Mills'] (Team United) - Mills has been filling in as the backup Center for Team United this season, playing over 13 minutes per game and averaging 2.9 points per game across 7 games. Sam has 2 games with 6 points and has been efficient in his limited touches, with one of those coming in 17 minutes against JL3 in Session 2. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2027917' first='Hunter' last='McGraw'] ([program_tooltip program_id='2134373' first='Team' last='USC Unleashed EYBL']) - Hunter had a monster Session 2 in Memphis in [program_tooltip program_id='2134373' first='Team' last='USC Unleashed EYBL']'s first EYBL Session. They earned the promotion following a great season last year, and McGraw wanted to make sure they were there to stay. In that session, 23.0 points per game including a 30-point game and a 29-point game on a combined 19-34 shooting. Although he can hit the outside shot, McGraw's scoring looked to be balanced at all three levels, which is an encouraging piece to his development. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2104388' first='Robert' last='Wylie'] ([program_tooltip program_id='2134373' first='Team' last='USC Unleashed EYBL']) - [player_tooltip player_id='2104388' first='Robert' last='Wylie'] has the brightest future of any of the prospects on his team, and he tapped into some of that potential in these two sessions. Robert had five double-digit games and three eight-rebound games, but he saved his best for last putting up 18 points, 8 rebounds, and 2 steals on 8-12 shooting in a close loss to Team Final. Wylie is a high-flying athlete who does a lot of things well, but will need to improve his perimeter shooting as he only had three makes (27%) in eight games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*Stats via Nike EYBL Website, which did not feature EYBL Champions League Stats for Sessions 2 and 3. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
