Prep Hoops Indiana State Tournament – Ramsey’s Sunday Standouts

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We can now officially put a bow on the spring run of the Prep Hoops Circuit. Now, during the month of June, prospects will get together with their high school teams. However, before diving into all of that, let's take continue to debrief from the Indiana State Tournament. In the coming days we will highlight our age group champions and announce All-Tournament teams. For now though, let's stick specially with the standouts on Sunday.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1561612"],"_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-683cec3b38342"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the first prospects to standout on Sunday morning while we were watching [program_tooltip program_id='2559412' first='Marlin' last='Academy'] Red 17u, Barton is the true definition of a point guard. The 5'7" floor general from Plainfield High School does a great job of playing off of two feet at the end of his drives which is crucial for a smaller guard. Playing off of two feet with great balance led to multiple assists and a couple of tough interior finishes. He also knocked in a three-point shot from the left wing while we were watching. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Khi'Shaun Brown","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"Evansville Harrison","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'11u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77246","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Evansville Harrison","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"WeDifferent 812","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-683cec3b383f9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Over the course of the Prep Hoops Indiana State Tournament, where Brown led WeDifferent 812 to a 15u championship, the 5'11" guard solidified himself as one of the best guards in the greater Pocket City area. Brown is incredibly explosive end-to-end, can get to the rim seemingly whenever he wants, and is a dynamic finisher at the end of his drives. The Evansville Harrison High School rising sophomore was the best player on the 15u title team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2140412"],"_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-683cec3b38457"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Edwards is an athletic, physical guard that loves to attack the rim downhill off of the bounce. He absorbs contact well and can finish up at, or even above, the rim at the end of his drives. Additionally, similar to his teammate Nover, Edwards is one of the best rebounding guards you'll find in Indiana's Class of 2027. He was a big part of leading Indiana Elite Central 16u to the Prep Hoops Indiana State Tournament title.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1561035"],"_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-683cec3b384aa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jankoviak impressed us all weekend long. The 6'4" forward may be a bit undersized in terms of height as a true post player, but he more than makes up for it with strength and physicality. He makes opposing defenders bounce off of him, plays with a strong base, and has great interior footwork. The Tri-Central High School product has flashed the ability to face-up and drive it right as well. He carves out space well on the boards and was very productive for Region Elite Basketball Club on both Saturday and Sunday.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2869111"],"_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-683cec3b384f3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Versatility is the name of the game for this 6'4" wing/forward from Columbus North High School. Kriesant scored a game-high 23 points in [program_tooltip program_id='2559412' first='Marlin' last='Academy'] Black 17u's semifinal win over 502 Elite. He did a little bit of everything in that one including stepping out to hit a three-point shot, converting at the free throw line consistently, and attacking closeouts. Look for a breakout senior season to come from Kriesant.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2272819"],"_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-683cec3b3854c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McQuigg is a really fluid athlete at 6'5" and showcased some impressive interior scoring ability on Sunday for 502 Elite. His positional quickness allows him to face-up and drive it at other 4/5 men with success. He loves to drive it left and then spin back right to finish. Then, against a mismatch, McQuigg displayed impressive patience in the post making his move and finishing strong over his left shoulder. An intriguing under-the-radar prospect to follow from Floyd Central High School.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2560647"],"_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-683cec3b38594"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This prospect just continues to get better and better. He has become a very projectable prospect with his ball handling and playmaking skills as a 6'4" guard who is also an excellent athlete. Nover can run the point, but is also an excellent shooter putting pressure on the defense to guard him well beyond the arc. He has proven himself as a willing passer and is one of the best rebounding guards in Indiana's Class of 2027. Nover led Indiana Elite Central to the 16u Indiana State Tournament championship averaging 15 points and 6.6 rebounds per game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
