A long, deceptively athletic guard, Goodwin boasts a refined offensive skillset that makes him a tough matchup for any defender. He combines smooth perimeter shooting with a crafty mid-range game, showcasing his ability to score at all three levels. At his best when attacking the rim, Goodwin consistently makes quick decisions and finishes with a strong pull-up jumper and an advanced finishing package around the basket.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2879951"],"_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-68981051b0de9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Aedyn made a strong impression during the 5-on-5 session Friday evening, holding his own against tough perimeter competition. His defensive intensity stood out, often disrupting opponents and sparking transition opportunities for his team. Offensively, Williams showed the ability to finish through contact at the rim while also demonstrating solid ball-handling and shot creation in the half court. After a productive spring and summer, he looks poised to carry that momentum into the upcoming winter season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2928351"],"_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-68981051b0e31"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jaycen is an emerging young prospect who took a significant step forward this summer. Physically, he's added noticeable strength, complementing his natural quickness and explosiveness. On the defensive end, Walker embraces the challenge of guarding top opposing guards, bringing consistent effort and energy. Offensively, he thrives as a slasher -- attacking the basket with purpose, creating paint touches, and finishing through traffic.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1850542"],"_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-68981051b0e81"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Doubrava showcased the quickest release of any shooter at the camp. While capable of handling the ball, he's most effective working off the ball, where his quick trigger and deep shooting range make him a constant threat. Cameron only needs a sliver of space to get his shot off and does so with confidence and accuracy. His high-level feel for the game also stands out -- reading defenses, using screens smartly, and relocating with precision to create open looks.</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":"AJ Mason","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_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":"Smithville","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_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-68981051b0f49"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mason was another Missouri guard who impressed on Friday, displaying a well-rounded offensive game. He handled defensive pressure with composure, initiated the offense smoothly, and showed the ability to score at all three levels. Off the ball, Mason stood out with his awareness -- making timely cuts and maintaining smart floor spacing to create opportunities for himself and others. His passing vision was another key strength, as he consistently looked to make the right play and operated with a pass-first mindset when in control of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2090489"],"_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-6898186c2c1e4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Willmann is an intriguing forward prospect with a well-rounded offensive game. He's advanced on that end of the floor, showing the ability to play both inside and out. With his size, Jake is comfortable operating in the post, where he uses solid footwork and a variety of finishes to score around the basket. He also has the ability to step out and hit shots from the perimeter, making him a versatile threat. Beyond scoring, he stands out with his feel for the game -- initiating offense in 5-out spacing and making smart reads that reflect a high basketball IQ.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
