Shooting 42% from deep last season with some of the shots he launched from outside the three-point line is pretty ridiculous, as Rezny pulled up from near halfcourt for a game-winner against Adam's Central and was able to stop on a dime and shoot off-the-dribble. With deceptively quick feet, Rezny can get downhill and score off floaters or beat his defender on a back-door cut for a layup. </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":"Espen Lanik","_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":"5'9u0022","_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":"Alliance","_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-68b9f02631643"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A multi-sport star for Alliance, Espen Lanik put up 17.5 points per contest for the Bulldogs in 24 games last season. An All-Western Conference hooper, Lanik isn't as efficient of a shoote as Rezny, but once he gets hot, it's difficult to cool him off. In 14 games last season, the 5'9" guard made three or more 3-pointers, including make six against Chadron in a 57-44 victory last season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Through one game on the gridiron this fall, Lanik leads the Bulldogs in receiving with four receptions for 66 yards and two touchdowns. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2731379"],"_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-68b9f026316e5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2731379' first='Nate' last='Kelley'] is set to return for his senior season with Scottsbluff in 25-26 and is looking to improve on his 16.7 points per game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">As we wrote this summer when evaluating ETG, Kelley's AAU club team on the 3SSB Circuit: </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">"A consistent, text-book jumper makes Kelley a threat to catch-and-shoot, at all times — and not just on the three-point line.

Though the main calling card in his game shooting the rock, he can show off his vision and shot creation from time-to-time, too. ... Any school from NAIA to D2 should be thrilled to add a high-effort, consistent shooter to their lineup as a scholarship talent, and he could earn a walk-on spot at the D1 level."</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2909633"],"_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-68b9f02631740"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2909633' first='Chris' last='Garner Jr.'] put up 14.7 points per game last season, doing enough for Norris to earn earn a roster spot at Independence Community College, where he committed just a couple weeks ago.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A 6'4" wing, Garner is a long ball-handler that can handle the ball and finish at the rim with soft touch. An athlete that doesn't get sped up, Garner plays at his own speed, can shoot from the outside and possesses a high release that makes his jumper difficult to defend. </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":"Brady McGill","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'11u0022","_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":"Roncalli Catholic","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"OSA","_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-68b9f026317db"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The only junior on this list, Brady McGill is a guard from Roncalli Catholic in Omaha who averaged 13.8 points per game last winter. McGill is a ball-handler that can create for himself off-the-dribble, and shows the ability to consistently dribble into shots on the perimeter. Opposing defenses can't give him any breathing room, as he's willing to fire from anywhere on the three-point line. With a quick first step and a nice crossover dribble, McGill can also beat defenders off the dribble and finish with either hand at the bucket. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
