He will fill up the scoreboard with high level mid-range pull-ups, deep threes off the catch, he was aggressive on the glass and he was attacking off the dribble to the basket. He is long in the passing lanes and scored 16 points in a close loss.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3005929' first='Derion' last='Thomas'] Central&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A physical power forward is just what was needed for the Bobcats to make another deep run. He scores it around the rim with offensive rebound put backs, he will dunk it as he explodes up quickly, score with hook shots and rebounds and block shots at a good clip. He moves quickly from end to end and will make his move. He scored 14 points with close to 10 rebounds.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2628288' first='Lucas' last='Anderson'] Ironwood Ridge&nbsp;(Pictured)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A bigger scoring guard will score it with pull-ups from mid-range and catch and shoot threes with a pretty stroke. He will collect steals and lay it in and rebounds well with his size. He has one of the prettier shooting strokes in Tucson and he looks like he grew an inch or two. He scored 21 points with 8 rebounds. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2407206' first='Cameron' last='Hurt'] Pinnacle&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A pure point guard with speed and a tight handle.

He shot the ball confidently like a 3 and D type of long term prospect would with three triples. He will dribble drive to the basket with either hand to score and he is a physical on-ball defender. He scored 13 points.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2291976' first='Collin' last='Kvamme'] Campo Verde&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A scoring lead guard with a pretty shooting stroke.

He will score with spin moves getting downhill to draw the contact and will cash in on the free throw line. He is a quick second and third jumper for tip-ins and he had one nice offensive rebound dunk out of nowhere. He can also hit the three and scored 15 points with filling up the stat sheet.     </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2330560' first='Braden' last='Miller'] Mesquite&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A highly skilled power forward who is cerebral.
