<p class="text-gray-700">It's always entertaining to see how Akeem will get into his shots during his games. He is a silky smooth guard that can maneuver his way past the defense and rise into his jumper at any time. Great feel for the game that you could see in his game as a freshman with the Cadets. Akeem looks for his shot with more aggression early in his summer with MD Movement and looks the part as a consistent scoring option. Doesn't force his shot often and looks to involve the team while seeking spaces to attack for his own shot. Nice game as a young PG with a determined Frederick squad.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Kaiden has been highly anticipated as the next PG in line for St. John's. His game as evolved a bit from the previous season as he plays extremely hard on both sides of the ball. Argueta can light the floor up with his shooting which was quickly captured in his minutes with the Cadets in 2024-25. He can mix his defender up with his elusiveness and handle on the ball. Kaiden's catch-and-shoot ability is incredible, he can find a spot anywhere beyond the arc. Entertaining point guard to watch in the WCAC over the next few years.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Luke will take on a huge role in his second season with Avalon. He will be the star PG in the backcourt trusted to lead the way for the young team. He can shoot the ball inside and out at a high velocity. When he's decisive with the ball he makes great reads and gets the offense to flow. Luke heats up quick and shoots the ball with confidence which opens up the floor for his team. His defense is most impressive as he looks to defend the full length of the floor. Collects steals and creates havoc defensively all game long. Luke's game steadily improved all season long and I expect the same to happen over the summer.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Sweet-shooting wing entering his second season with Maret. I'm excited to see how his game evolves past a catch-and-shoot guard. He was electric when he caught fire in games for Maret over the year, and he was a willing defender as well. Babu is one of my radar players due to his size and touch mixed with his mobility. He can get in the paint, defend, and rebound with the bigs, as well as step out to the perimeter and move well offensively and defensively. Intriguing prospect to watch over the years in DC.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Mekhi will continue to see his role increase with the departure of starting backcourt players and he seems to be ready for the task. Mekhi can shoot the ball well off the dribble or spotting up behind the perimeter. Lighting quickness with the ball to match the rest of the speedy Don backcourt. Always performs well with [program_tooltip program_id='2076999' first='Team' last='Melo'] in the summer time. Gets to his spots on the floor with his handle and speed combined and makes it hard for the defense to cover all angles on the floor. He can create well for the offense and has shown to be a reliable playmaker on the ball. Another deadly shooter on the Dons roster that will make you pay for slipping under on pick-and-roles. [player_tooltip player_id='2553545' first='Mekhi' last='Moe'] is a name to watch out in Baltimore as the summer continues and the new season begins.</p>
