<p>With the high school basketball season approaching we are looking at some under the radar names by breaking down film across Illinois.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2916474' first='Mitchell' last='Potts'] (Normal Community – 2027)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Potts is a 6'0” guard from Normal Community who is primed to have a good season ahead. Good ball handler that can deck it with either hand and finish at the cup. Finishes well through contact around the hoop maneuvering his body. Really like what he brings defensively with his active hands and willingness to lock in on that end.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2538056' first='Joey' last='Toma'] (St. Charles North – 2029)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Toma is a 5'7” freshman point guard. The lefty is a solid shooter from deep that has a bit of a long release, but makes them. This should improve as he gets stronger. Can knock down shots both off the catch and pulling up.</p>

<p><strong>Jaylen Robinson (Oswego East – 2028)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This 6'0” sophomore guard has a clean looking shot from beyond the arc. Can play both on and off the ball. Good strength and burst off the bounce getting in the lane for finishes.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2868685' first='Donovan' last='Jimenez'] (Trico – 2026)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Jimenez is a 5'9” guard from Trico that had one of the plays of the Prep Hoops Top 250 when he got a steal and threw in an insane left handed high scooping shot with spin on it. Lefty has a clean looking shot off the catch along with pulling up behind ball screens. Solid ball handler that can create and get to the line. Worth looking into at the small college level.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2370232' first='Leo' last='Sullivan'] (Eisenhower – 2027)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Sullivan is a 5'10” guard with a shifty handle. Creates off the bounce for acrobatic layups and soft touch finishes. Burst with the ball in his hands. Solid shooter off the bounce.</p>
