<p>Quick guard who brought some pace to the floor and provided some creative flashes in the paint to find teammates. Shot well from 3-point land, and provided a pretty balanced approach, scoring and dishing, playing both in the paint and along the perimeter.</p>

<p>Frolov was one of the top shooters at the showcase. He started hitting shots right away and didn't stop throughout the rest of the day. Showed a pretty solid IQ to get to good spots in transition, make the extra pass, and showed off some sneaky athleticism around the rim.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2392951' first='Sudan' last='Luok'] | SG | Garfield | 2027</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Maybe the most athletic player at the showcase, Luok was getting on the rim, finishing breaks, but also provided some underrated playmaking throughout the day. He's a long wing who was able to run in the open court, and showed good burst out of his moves on the perimeter to get to the rim in the half. Also made great reads as the ballhandler on the break and in transition to find teammates in space and move the ball up quickly.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2140866' first='Zion' last='Stone'] | CG | Kennedy | 2027</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Shot the ball extremely well from deep and was able to play off that later in the day with some balanced scoring from different levels. Has a great first step and displayed multiple counters to free himself up and gain separation. Also played with great energy to help out in little ways, tipping passes on defense, running the floor, and crashing in for some offensive boards and tip-ins. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2726747' first='Brian' last='Holliday'] | SF | Annie Wright | 2026</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Intriguing wing who showed some good growth on the offensive end. Started out with some sneaky finishes at the rim, utilizing his length to scoop shots around defenders, and had some great moves with pumps and pivots. Came alive from three later on with several catch-and-shoot triples as well as a few off the dribble where he was creating his own shot.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2173771' first='Eric' last='Olteanu'] | SF | Interlake | 2027</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Strong wing player who was able to get some things going to the rim from outside and put pressure on the interior of the defense. Also did a good job fighting inside for boards and showed some versatility defending multiple positions.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2872054' first='Brody' last='Renners'] | SF | Seattle Prep | 2027</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Solid post who worked hard to get up and down the floor, get good position inside to contribute on the glass, and showed some strength in the paint on both ends of the floor. Also showed some potential as a player who can stretch the floor and knock down some shots beyond the arc.</p>
