Additional Prospects to Watch at Rare Footage Pre-Live Event

Below is part II in my preview of prospects we will be watching closely at this weekend's Rare Footage Pre-Live Event.   College coaches need to scout these players during the upcoming high school live period.      With 2024-25 leading scorer [player_tooltip player_id='2251289' first='Cody' last='Fisher'] now at Friends Central, Grau will be thrust into the role of No. 1 option at Lancaster Mennonite. That promotion should not be a problem for this multi-skilled floor general. Grau can drain threes all day. He is especially effective a catching swing passes and then knocking down a triple. Grau will also use his crafty handles and high IQ to create for himself or teammates. Grau can get to the rack for a lay-in or throw on the breaks in the mid-range for a jumper. Whether he is on the fast break or directing half-court sets, Grau's court vision and patience enable him to deliver precise dimes to teammates at the perfect moment. Grau's ability to keep his dribble alive under extreme duress is impressive. Defensively, Grau is a plus player who is constantly communicating with teammates.     Earlier this week Henighan announced that he is departing Germantown Friends and enrolling at Engineering & Sciences. Thus, this weekend should be his first runs with his new squad, and I am eager to watch how he fits alongside E&S point guard [player_tooltip player_id='1888746' first='Fareed' last='Brown']. In my opinion, Henighan and Brown should click immediately as Henighan's ridiculously accurate three-point shooting should create space for Brown's dribble attacks on the paint. Henighan's ability to run to a spot on the fast break and then drain a three will add a new wrinkle to the E&S transition game too. When defenders close out too quickly on Henighan, he will put the ball on the floor and get to his mid-range spot or all the way to the glass for a lay-in. He is especially effective on baseline drives. E&S fans will be pleasantly surprised by Henighan's work on the glass.     Sabb's dribble drive skills are simply off the charts. The trifecta of Sabb's quick burst, change of direction handles and finishing skills get him to the rack for lay-ins in transition as well as in the half-court. His ability to score at the cup through contact is extraordinary. Plus, Sabb can use his attacks on the paint to create for teammates via kick outs, drop assess to the dunker spot or by slipping a pass to a cutter. If a defender elects to sag off Sabb, he will sprinkle in enough three pointers to punish that decision. At the other end of the court, Sabb's active hands create a slew of turnovers.     One of the biggest sleeper prospects in southeastern Pennsylvania is this versatile point guard prospect. When he looking to score, Sozio (2x 1st Team All-BAL) can produce points in the open court, drain threes as well as mid-range jumpers and get to the rack off the bounce on half-court possessions. Sozio is also a fantastic distributor. He will patiently run a team until an efficient scoring opportunity for a teammate presents itself and then Sozio will deliver the rock. Sozio's team-first nature means he is always willing to make the extra pass. On defense, Sozio is a menacing on-ball presence. College coaches will love his vocal on-the-court leadership too.
