<p class="text-gray-700">A really intriguing piece added to Rainier Beach's frontcourt, Malok brings legit size and rim defense to a team with talent across each position. His ability to range across the paint and alter shots as a help defender, as well as defending size in the post, and seal possessions with boards, should help the Vikings continue to get out and run, and keep the pace high.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Hamilton comes over to Camas from Columbia (White Salmon) and looks like he'll have a big role this winter. He brings more size to their squad at 6-foot-7 and has some versatility to his offensive game. He can bully his way to the rim and has some good footwork to finish in the paint, both from the blocks and getting downhill. He can also step out and stretch the floor, and should be their number two scoring option this season.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Davenport was a big find for us at The Expo two weekends ago. He's a legit post who has a great work rate and showed some good skill operating from the blocks. Can finish with either hand, uses a variety of moves down low, and has the strength to fight through bodies to score and rebound. He should be a key guy at Cedarcrest this winter.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Standfield should see an expanded role at Mount Si this winter with the departure of Lattimore Ford to Combine Academy. He brings some size and athleticism at 6-foot-6 to play out of different spots. He runs the floor well, will defend, rebound, and has some skill scoring from the midrange and in. He's a guy who could float around the paint and finish plays, work in the pick-and-roll, and mix in some drives from the perimeter and high post.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">The Mountlake Terrace point guard came on our radar after some stellar play at the June D1 Recruiting Event. He's a pretty crafty guard who can really shoot the ball. And while he excels from 3-point range, he also has the handle and vision to create some things off the bounce and set up his teammates. He should be a key ballhandler and playmaker for them, and could help elevate some of their younger talent.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Theilman is a key wing at Bainbridge who brings some slashing and athleticism to the floor. He plays with good pace, making quick decisions with the ball, has the ability to quickly stop and hit some pull-up midrange shots, and can stretch the floor from outside. His length and ability to attack around the paint will be big for them, but he's also got the athleticism to be a factor on the glass and defend multiple positions.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">He's a hard-nosed guard whose game really comes to life on the defensive end. He can get up and harass ballhandlers, create turnovers, force pickups, and slow down opposing attacks. He's also a strong rebounder for a guard, can be that secondary ballhandler, and take over point duties in spurts, and is a tough finisher at the cup.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Price is a smaller guard, but he makes up for it with his strength and plus-athleticism. He's a guy who plays aggressively all over the court, can initiate contact at the rim and go up strong, and helps up the pace when he's handling the rock. He's also a tough on-ball defender who will fight through screens, cut down driving angles, and stay active with his hands.</p>
