Wisconsin The Expo: Max's Wing Standouts

Seven of the wing prospects who impressed over the weekend in Appleton at The Expo!    Playing for a loaded Nicolet team he may not put up the eye catching numbers that other guys in his class do, but Edward is one of the best pure scorers in the state's 2027 class. At 6'3 he has some length, has added explosiveness over the past couple of years, and has the body control to finish everything inside. Edward did a nice job of working for high percentage looks around the basket, while still showing that dangerous pull-up jumper to keep defenders on their toes. During the final game of the day he dished out a few assists from the top of they key, showing he's more than just a scoring threat on offense.     [player_tooltip player_id='1900422' first='Donovan' last='Calloway'] is an explosive athlete who has the chance to put up some big scoring numbers for Tosa East over the next two years. He has the ability to play either guard spot, but excelled as a slasher on the wing in the game I watched. Calloway hit a tough pull-up jumper from the elbow area, threw down a transition dunk, and wiggled his way to the rim for a number of finishes off the drive. So slippery weaving threw defenders in the half-court, and then using his length and athleticism to rise up and finish. Those physical tools also help him on the defensive end where he can defend the 1-3 spots. He averaged 11.2 ppg last season as a sophomore.     Kenderick just adds to the depth at Nicolet, bringing additional length and defensive versatility to the floor. He has the strength to defend against forwards, but was at his best out on the wing where he used his long arms to get up in passing lanes and come up with steals. He would pick his moments to step in to cut off a drive, or reach in to poke the ball free. After a turnover he was automatic as a finisher in transition, able to turn defense into offense in the blink of an eye.     It wouldn't surprise me to see Mohammad compete for leading scorer in the state this upcoming high school season. As a sophomore last winter he put up 28.7 ppg for Salam, and we could see that number increase even more as a junior. Mohammad has a very strong frame as a high schooler, able to simply overpower opposing wings on his way to the rim. He was competing on the glass on both ends of the floor, and scored with impressive efficiency on the volume of shots he was taking. Someone who has the confidence and ability to score from just about anywhere on the floor.     Mitchell is an outside shooting threat with some size on the wing at 6'3. In the game I watched he did a nice job of finding pockets of space out on the perimeter, and making himself available when one of his guards got into the lane and forced the defense to collapse on him. Mitchell always had his hands and feet ready to shoot, and when the ball came his way he was quickly able to get a shot off. He hit four 3's in the first half alone during his second game of the day.     The lefty wing was a major transition threat for Team 2 in their matchup with Team 3. He showed the ability to pull in a defensive board and then push the tempo to go coast-to-coast, weaving through defender with ease to get to the basket. Was also able to beat defenders in the half-court and finish in traffic. He'll look to break into the Pius XI rotation this winter as a junior.     Lloyd had some nice moments during the 3v3 portion of camp. He's a big and physical wing whose strength helps him play bigger than his 6' height. Jackson was relentless on the glass, and was even able to follow up some of his own misses for put-back buckets. Has a smooth handle that allows him to beat bigger wings with finesse, but defend him with a guard and Lloyd can simply bully his way to the rim.
