<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A few of the highly talented guards in New Mexico earned their spot in the latest state rankings. Lets take a look at five 2029 guards that have stood out on the most recent board!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2892400"],"_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-686720755f286"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jashon is a fierce competitor on the floor! He seems to take every matchup personally on both sides of the court. Morinia has no problem getting downhill and attacking whoever steps in front of him. He is able to stop on a dime, rise up and use his pull up jump shot at a high level. He has a quick first step along with his excellent ball handling skills which makes it difficult for defenses to guard Jashon one on one. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2892364"],"_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-686720755f31d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mikho has showcased why he is one of the top players in the state during this entire grassroots season. Mikho has received all tournament honors while playing on the JR. 3SSB Circuit, an invite to the BallIsLife All-American camp, and plenty of recognition for his big time performance on the West Circuit. Huynh has such a tight handle on the rock, it seems impossible to knock him off balance or poke the ball out of his hands. He has a strong frame which allows him to be a physical guard on the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2875245"],"_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-686720755f38f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Diego is a very well rounded combo guard. He does a great job of attacking the holes in the defense to create offensive advantages for his team. Diego is able to get to the paint and draw the eyes of the defense. His decision making in these situations is phenomenal. Once the defense crashes to the ball, Diego is able to dish off dimes to his teammates resulting in wide open looks. Diego is able to play under control and finish at the rim even over some of the taller defenders he has matched up against. Camacho also excels from beyond the arc. He uses his ability to relocate while off of the ball to find open spots on the floor and knock down solid looks from the three point line.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2892345"],"_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-686720755f403"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The state champion, [player_tooltip player_id='2892345' first='Marcus' last='Montoya'], has taken a tremendous leap on the court since the state last saw him at The Pit. He has stood out on the puma circuit throughout the grassroots season by scoring at will. His ability to shoot from way beyond the three point line has made him one of the toughest guys to guard on the circuit. Montoya has been a solid finisher at the basket as well. He does a great job of seeking contact on the drive and finishing through contact. He has showcased his ability to take his defender off the dribble and get a great shot attempt whenever he wants. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2892326"],"_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-686720755f46c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cisco has made a name for himself throughout the grassroots season. His ability to play at a high speed has been on display this year. He ferociously attacks the rim and does a great job finishing with either hand. Cisco is able to score from all three levels on the floor. He is able to shoot efficiently with the quick release that he possesses on his jump shot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
