GASO Houston Fall Tour: Saturday Afternoon Standout Prospects

This article will be a continuation of my last GASO Houston piece covering many of the standout hoopers who attended Saturday. The slate of games proved very exciting to spectators and media alike and definitely caught my eye with several players who I feel have the talent to continue their great momentum from the weekend. Let's examine the second batch of athletes who made their way onto my radar watch from GASO Houston Saturday.    Perhaps the best shooter at the tournament, I have watched Salanoa torch defenses from deep in multiple outings and this game against Legacy SSS was no different. Zayson went 6-7 from deep in the contest and also helped his team by contributing on the glass and converting second chance points. His length and underrated quickness help him on defense, and he will definitely be one of the on-court leaders to watch for Atascocita this year going into his senior season.     Jacari was one of the more versatile guards/wings I watched on Saturday afternoon and he helped his team come up big in a win over College Park. Irvin stretches the floor with his ballhandling and can work his way to the free throw line against tough contact going into the paint. His height helps him guard on the perimeter on defense and he plays passing lanes well, allowing Hightower rack up a lot of fastbreak points from steals. His athleticism was a big part of Jacari being able to impact the game on Saturday and he showcased it all over the court on both sides.     Carter came off the bench for Atascocita in the game against Legacy and immediately made an impact. The defense was sleeping on his long range shot and Savoy did not hesitate to let the ball fly when he had space in front of him. I've been watching Carter for about a year and a half and I love the effort he gives on the floor. His defensive hustle and determination to get his team extra possessions are contagious for the rest of the Eagles and he is good at filling his lane in transition. He definitely made his way onto my prospect list with his play this weekend.     Bryce was locked in from 3-point land during Cy Creek's close loss to Houston Heights. He buried 6/8 from deep and was dialed in the whole course of the game, getting to his spots and knocking down long-range bombs to keep Creek in the game and swinging the momentum. Bryce moves well without the ball, and he is a willing passer when he does not have an open look at the basket. He also moves well on defense and knows how to guard multiple positions.
