<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Sophomore ID Camp on September 7th is shaping up to be a can't miss event. This camp is the perfect stage to showcase how their games have developed over the summer and I'll be on site ready to dive deeper into their skillsets.

His big body still allows him to bully defenders inside, but he's also become more confident as a shooter and more effective running the floor in transition. That combination of size, mobility, and versatility makes him a tough cover. Heading into the season Lyon looks poised to be both a reliable interior presence and a matchup problem who can score in different ways</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2506296"],"_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-68af7aa3be23e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lewis built on his summer by sharpening his scoring versatility and overall feel for the game. He showed growth in transition, finishing consistently at the rim with strong body control, while also positioning himself well to create easy opportunities. His confidence as a shooter both from deep and mid range stood out, giving him multiple ways to hurt defenses. With that development Lewis looks ready to step into the season as a dynamic scoring threat who can push the pace, stretch the floor, and capitalize on mismatches</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2402579"],"_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-68af7aa3be2a1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Salsbery used the summer to refine his inside game and defensive presence, becoming even more active around the paint. His ability to guard multiple positions whether on the wing or in the post has improved, and he's shown a strong knack for boxing out and controlling the boards. With that growth, Salsbery looks poised to be a reliable interior anchor this season, capable of protecting the paint, securing rebounds, and making life difficult for opponents on both ends of the floor</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2830018"],"_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-68af7aa3be2fa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Vandagriff had a very effective summer displaying his already physical style of play, showing even more impact on both ends of the floor. His defensive intensity and ability to generate steals stood out, while his aggression and control at the rim on finishes improved as well. With that growth Vandagriff looks ready to take his game to the next level this season, bringing relentless energy, tough defense, and efficient scoring around the basket that can change the flow of a game</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2393324"],"_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-68af7aa3be357"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Benning was able to sharpen his offensive toolkit this summer becoming even quicker and more decisive attacking the basket. His floaters and finishes around the rim have become more consistent, while his vision and ability to deliver accurate transition passes have improved, helping him create opportunities for teammates. Heading into the season, Benning looks poised to be a dynamic inside threat who can score efficiently, push the pace, and make plays for others, making him a versatile weapon on both ends</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
