<p class="has-medium-font-size">Carsten is a small guard who has a good feel or the PG spot. He has a budding PG IQ and showed his ability to facilitate the offense. He plays under control, values the ball, and does a good job keeping the offense fluid. His floor general skills were evident throughout the day as he has nice passing and set-up ability, doesn't over dribble but keeps the ball moving, and plays like a coach on the floor and really excels at running the offense. He also showed that he can knock down the open shot when the opportunity arises.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size">Julian is a skilled lead guard who showed early flashes of being one of the most polished guards in camp. While his energy dipped as the day went on, he made it clear that he understands how to run a team. He has the awareness, vision, and passing ability to set up teammates and keep an offense humming. As a smaller guard, staying in elite shape and playing with relentless toughness will be critical for his long-term development. Julian was undoubtedly one of the more skilled prospects at camp and showed why he belongs in conversations as a trusted floor leader.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size">Cameron provided consistent production with his interior presence. His physical frame allowed him to create space, finish through contact, and control the boards. He leaned heavily on his left hand, which will need to expand as he matures, but his ability to compete physically stood out. Cameron's effort on both ends of the floor and willingness to battle in the paint made him one of the hardest-playing prospects in camp.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size">Connor brought positional size, length, and a relentless mindset to the floor. From the start, his goal was clear, attack the rim. He was at his best when slashing to the basket, attacking closeouts, and finishing with touch around the rim. As the day went on, he only got stronger, becoming a constant threat to get downhill and keep defenders backpedaling. His length also allowed him to be a versatile defender, making him a two-way presence with intriguing upside.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size">Evan showed his versatility as a guard, producing both on and off the ball. He looked comfortable with the ball in his hands but was equally effective playing off it. He displayed scoring ability in bunches, creating his own offense through ball screens or isolation. He has a strong handle and a crafty ability to change rhythm making him tough to contain in space. His shot-making and ability to adjust pace stood out, marking him as a player to track in this class.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size">Colin was arguably the most dynamic scorer in camp. He is a true three-level scorer, who consistently created offense for himself and showcased a deep bag of moves to get defenders off balance. Whether in isolation or the pick-and-roll, he used hesitation dribbles and rhythm changes to put defenders at his mercy. He hit tough shots from all areas of the floor and put relentless pressure on opposing defenses. For Colin to become a complete player, his defensive consistency will need to catch up to his high-powered offensive game, but his scoring talent was undeniable.</p>
