He evolved from being primarily a deadly three point shooter into a more complete offensive threat, attacking the rim with confidence and finishing over defenders, making him a true highlight reel player. On defense he leverages his quickness, technique and anticipation to disrupt opponents, create turnovers, and impact the game without the ball. His ability to contribute in multiple ways and consistently improve with each performance made him a standout and secured his place among the ranked players</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2819823"],"_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-68f6b3d742fe7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tannahill earned his ranking after a standout summer where he consistently took over games and showed why he's a top tier player. He dominated inside, finishing with authority at the rim, while also displaying a smooth and reliable mid range game. On top of that he can step out and knock down three pointers, making him a versatile scoring threat from all areas of the floor. His combination of inside dominance, shooting range and overall offensive skill set made him impossible to overlook and earned him a spot in the rankings</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2422517"],"_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-68f6b3d74302f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sosa has the ability to control the game on both ends of the floor. As a playmaker he runs the point with poise, consistently finding open teammates and creating opportunities by drawing extra defensive attention. Offensively his vision and decision making make him a reliable facilitator. Defensively his quickness allows him to apply pressure, disrupt passing lanes and generate steals creating momentum changing plays. His combination of court vision, speed and defensive impact makes him a standout player and a key reason he earned his spot in the rankings</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2827029"],"_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-68f6b3d743073"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Elk played into his ranking by consistently making an impact with his energy, skill and basketball IQ. He plays with relentless hustle, always around the ball and making plays that keep his team moving.

With excellent court vision and decision making, he controls the tempo of the game, keeps the offense flowing and consistently puts his team in positions to succeed.
