Prep Hoops Missouri continues its grassroots team spotlights on Under the Radar players with a look at the [program_tooltip program_id='2077053' first='Yanders' last='Law'] 16U team out of the SWMO area. We watched a couple of their games and here are a some observations about the players that we watched.   [player_tooltip player_id='2701102' first='Griffin' last='Mehrhoff'] (Branson): A 6'4" 2027 shooting guard who has a pure perimeter stroke and a little swag to his offensive game. He has a quick release and deep range on his shot. He also has confident handles to create off the dribble. He can use his strength to take advantage of smaller guards in the post. He also facilitates well with his passing and court vision. He also positions himself well for offensive rebounding.     Will Winn (Kickapoo): A 6'3" 2027 forward who plays with plenty of activity and bounce around the basket. He is a good finisher on the break and he also completes many plays inside with impressive dunks off two feet. He can also get downhill on the drive and he has an impressive second and third jump on the offensive boards. He has a pretty big upside as he is just starting to blossom as a player.     [player_tooltip player_id='2920312' first='Uzziah' last='Huskisson'] (Willard): A talented 6'3" 2028 guard who is playing a year up with the 16Us. He has good athleticism and he attacks downhill on the drive very effectively for a smooth finger roll at the rim. He can also hit the 3-pointer off the catch, which adds to his drive game. He has good defensive instincts with his ability to play the passing lanes for steals and deflections.     [player_tooltip player_id='2952158' first='Tyler' last='Harrell'] (Greenwood): A 5'11" combo guard who plays a very solid game with his ability to handle the shoot the basketball. He can shoot it well with range from well beyond the 3-point line. He keeps the ball moving on offense and he can also feed the post well.     [player_tooltip player_id='2952155' first='Caden' last='Frederick'] (Greenwood): A 6'4" 2027 forward who plays with a strong motor and who seems to be always around the ball. He has active hands and he moves his feet on defense and he can also guard the pick and roll well. He crashes the offensive boards and he will dive on the floor for loose balls. On offense, he will use his body to back down defenders into the low post to create a play.     [player_tooltip player_id='2916667' first='Brody' last='Emery'] (Mountain Grove): A 6'1" 2027 guard who came off the bench and brought a lot of energy when he enters the game. He can shoot the 3-pointer off the catch and he has a nice runner in the lane. He also has a nice shot fake to raise a defender and set up his drive.     Ryker Letterman (Marshfield): A 6'1" 2027 guard who is a solid ball handler and passer. He did a good job looking up and passing the ball ahead on the break for transition layups. He can also pull the trigger from 3-point range.
