Kentucky Standouts from Miami OH Team Camp

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>My final team camp of June before the live period weekends was at Miami OH and I caught some top talent from Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky, in this article I'll break down the Kentucky standouts I caught.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2091803"],"_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-68538cc61fab3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the most athletic players in the state of Kentucky, Holman had some unreal highlights on Wednesday with a couple monster dunks and a scorching stretch from the perimeter as a shot-maker in the second game I caught. Now the featured option on his team, Holman is now tasked with creating his own shot and setting the table for his teammates. One of the best shots I saw all day was when Holman hit a tough pull-up 3-poiner at the halftime buzzer with the defense all over him. If Holman can improve his right hand and cut down on some turnovers, he'll be one of the toughest players to stop in Kentucky this winter. Already adding multiple Division I offers from Youngstown State and Morehead State in June, Holman will be one of the top prospects Division I coaches come to watch this weekend in Lexington.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1543597"],"_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-68538cc61fb18"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">With so much senior talent graduating from the state championship squad, this allows for some new names to enter the spotlight. Cooper is one of those new names and he impressed me with his perimeter shot-making ability, hitting a handful of catch and shoot shots from the corner. Cooper also scored off a couple DHO actions and found success when he was decisive with how he wanted to attack. Looking for Cooper to get stronger with the ball in his hands and make quicker decisions, he has the talent to be one of the breakout seniors in the greater Lexington area this winter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1563823"],"_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-68538cc61fb61"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A prospect who has been in the spotlight for a while in the Louisville area, Jackson seems to have found his stride as he prepares for his senior season with one of the top programs in Kentucky. An impressive passer from the wing position, Jackson is a weapon against full court pressure and in the half-court with his ability to zip the ball from one end to the other. Jackson was also knocking down shots from the perimeter, spacing the floor as a pick and pop option or as a spot-up shooter. What makes Jackson really tough to defend is his ability to play in the post on smaller defenders, using his physicality to gain position and either shoot over defenders or make a quick kickout pass to a teammate. Very skilled player who was recently offered by Southern Illinois, Jackson will be sure to help draw a crowd at Louisville St Xavier games this weekend in Lexington.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2884308"],"_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-68538cc61fba6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I was impressed by the physicality Garr showed as a rising Sophomore. With a strong frame and aggressive style of play, Garr does not back down vs older competition whatsoever. An excellent rebounder for his height, Garr was scrappy fighting for loose balls. Also capable of making a perimeter shot when left open from 3-point range, Garr hit some shots in key moments for his team. Solid utility piece for one of the top teams in the state as just a sophomore, Garr will be a player to watch next season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1751495"],"_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-68538cc61fbea"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I hadn't seen Brown in person since December and immediately thought he looked taller and stronger than my last in person scout of his game. Always been one of the most skilled guards in the state of Kentucky, Brown's improvement as an athlete could be critical for his development as a prospect. On Wednesday Brown made some deep shots both off the catch and dribble and showcased his impressive ability to create off the dribble. Brown posted that he was contacted by six Division I programs this week, including team camp host Miami OH. Expect Brown to draw attention from those schools and more this weekend in Lexington.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1745595"],"_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-68538cc61fc2f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I like the depth of 2027 talent Fairdale has with a few different guys who can impact the game in different ways. Stinnett is one of the elite shooters in Kentucky and made shots efficiently on Wednesday against two of the better teams from the Cincinnati area. Able to extend his range a few feet beyond the 3-point arc, Stinnett is a guard opposing defenses must locate early in possessions. Like I mentioned early about Fairdale's 2027 depth, a handful of prospects will draw college interest from this group and the KABC live period is a great place to draw some interest for their group.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
