Prep Hoops Stomping Grounds: SD All-Tournament Teams + Evals

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After hitting the film from Prep Hoops Stomping Grounds throughout the tailend of the week and making notes as I go, I have a final article outlining some of the notable South Dakota prospects and a couple North Dakota prospects.

Because on the court, he's been leading an [program_tooltip program_id='2832803' first='Impact' last=''] 17U-1 team that is really shocking everyone by their team play and they have taken down some good teams from good programs. Their early success is honestly one of the more surprising developments of the early AAU season. Briggs is a big reason for the team's success and he's also coming off of a state AA championship as the starting point guard. All Briggs does is win and I think that needs to be given more consideration. So I may do a 180 and move him up the board based off of his on-court play rather than size.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1959422"],"_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-68339a2b64ff0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I'm fairly high on Uhing and I think he can be a breakout AA player next season for Sioux Falls Washington.

He's an aggressive 3-point shooter and is sort of a high volume shooter from three, but he still has great shot selection. He has a quick release, so that makes it easy for him to get clean looks. He can also shoot the ball off the dribble and pull up when he attacks a closing-out defender. He brings more value than a box score may suggest. After viewing him more closely and gaining far more appreciation of his value, I think he needs to jump up the 2027 rankings board considerably.

Caden is a prospect that could be an entirely different player/prospect in two years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2442396"],"_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-683271c1bf054"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Teake is deserving of a mention on the site. If you're a coach, Teake is what you're looking for in your point guard. He's one of the few and rare true point guards in the state. A true point guard that has a mindset of controlling a game with ball-handling, court vision, pace-setting, distributing, and being a threat to put the ball in the hoop when the opportunity arises. He showed some impressive explosiveness and acceleration in the open court. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2519047"],"_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-683320f2cf496"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Haila is a raw prospect at this time, but I have a hunch that he could get up to the 6'9”-6'10” mark. He's a 6'5” and looks to be inching closer to 6'6”. So obviously great size for a younger prospect. A fairly decent athlete already that can jump some, so that is encouraging for his potential upside.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2442419"],"_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-6832b9e71ef68"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dekker is somewhere between being a wing and a wing/4. He's a new prospect that will be added to the upcoming South Dakota 2028 rankings. Great length and skill to go with it.

The South Dakota 2028 rankings post tomorrow and Lundin's stock is now at an elite level now that I've seen him up live. A thorough analysis on Lundin tomorrow as he skyrockets up the 2028 rankings board.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":"","_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-68315b2125fb3"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":"","_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-68315b2126035"} /-->
