What Names To Look Out For at 2029 Freshman Showcase

The countdown is on and the Freshman Showcase tips off this Sunday September 7th, and the stage is set for some of the area's top young talent to shine. With confirmed players ready to bring their best on both ends of the floor, this event promises to showcase rising stars eager to make their mark. From offensive firepower to lockdown defense, expect high level competition, breakout performances, and names you'll want to remember.    Pecic is one of the most dangerous shooters on the floor, especially from deep. His quick release and fearless approach let him catch and fire without hesitation, and he's proven to be both accurate and efficient from beyond the arc. We really want to see how he uses that shooting gravity to open up the rest of his game. From how he can space the floor, attack closeouts, create off the dribble, and make smart plays inside the arc. If he can pair his elite perimeter shooting with secondary scoring and playmaking, Pecic has the tools to become a true offensive weapon who can stretch defenses in multiple ways     Marshall was dominant with Hard2Guard this summer, displaying excellent poise with the ball and a confident approach to attacking defenses. He can score from anywhere on the court, with his true strength coming inside the arc through a smooth jumper and quick floater. At the showcase he can expand his game by consistently stretching the floor, making plays for others when defenses collapse, and showing he can impact the game without the ball. If he can blend his natural scoring touch with improved range, playmaking vision, and defensive versatility, Marshall has the chance to separate himself as a complete prospect     Teff has the size and length to make him a threat on both ends of the floor. With Elevation, he showed he can bully defenders on his way to the rim and finish with authority, while defensively proving he can match up with anyone on the court. The showcase is the perfect place for him to expand that physical edge into a more complete skill set. We want to see him knock down shots from mid range or beyond, create off the dribble, and show decision making under pressure. If he can combine his physical gifts with a polished perimeter game and consistent reads, Teff has the upside to be a matchup problem at the next level     White is a combo guard who showed with [program_tooltip program_id='2075800' first='PSB' last=''] that he can attack and finish at the rim while also finding the open shooter when defenses collapse. We will be watching how he knocks down shots consistently from the perimeter, makes quick reads under pressure and control of the game's tempo. If he can combine his ability to penetrate with a reliable outside shot and steady decision making, White can cement himself as a versatile backcourt piece capable of running an offense or playing off the ball effectively     Griffin has a reputation as a shooter, capable of lighting up the scoreboard from all three levels. The showcase allows us to see how he attacks closeouts, creates shots off the dribble, and impacts the game outside of his jumper. If he can pair his shooting arsenal with playmaking, defensive consistency, and off ball movement that keeps defenses guessing, Griffin has the chance to evolve from a specialist into a offensive threat
