<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1624061' first='Caden' last='Coleman'] - There haven't been too many players from the Palmetto State who have had a better start to 2025 on the hardwood than Caden. This USC Unleashed group has several capable facilitators, meaning Coleman has the freedom to be aggressive as a scorer. He has a great mid-range game and looks to use his athleticism to elevate on both ends of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1847523' first='Jackson' last='Conley'] - Conley was a mid-season addition for this MHE group, notably coming after he had a strong performance against them with his former team. Jackson is an intriguing offensive prospect with exceptional skill and a 6'8" frame. Teammates [player_tooltip player_id='1206191' first='Jake' last='Thomas'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1560921' first='Levi' last='Ball'] are both strong rebounders, which allows Conley to focus his defensive efforts on protecting the rim. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1669880' first='Bryce' last='Ward'] - Bryce had a fantastic scoring weekend in Indiana, putting up 18 a game, which was good for top five in the division. He is a gifted shot-maker at all three levels, using quickness and a tight handle to create shots. However, Ward filled the stat sheet all weekend long by averaging over 5 assists per game and 3 steals per game, proving he can do more than just score and do so at a high level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2484554' first='Eric' last='Jenkins'] - Much like the mold of his older counterpart, Jenkins led MHE's E15 group by doing it all from the Point Guard position. Eric showcased his ability to get it done on both ends, leading the league in steals per game and top five in assists per game through four games. Despite his size, he is a very crafty finisher at the rim and excels at making reads in the pick-and-roll.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2861502' first='Jack' last='Webb'] - After a slow start to the weekend, Jack caught fire for USC Unleashed, leading them with over 13 points per game. In game one, Webb was 0-4 from the field with just two points. However, over the final three games, he put up 14, 18, and 19 points - all resulting in wins. Jack's calling card is his ability to shoot the ball, and he did so efficiently in Indiana (12-22, 54.5%).</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*Stats via Nike EYBL Website*</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*The next EYBL/EYCL Event is May 16-18 in Memphis, Tennessee*</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
