Their performances not only showcased individual skill but also their impact in leading teams and adapting to high-pressure situations, signaling that these underclassmen are poised for big things as the season unfolds.    Floyd quickness and athleticism stand out well. Intrigued by Floyd's efficient decision making, especially on ball screens because he has a good blend of scoring and passing as a ball-handler. Floyd wasted no time getting the ball out of his hands in transition in a natural flow of the offense. Floyd has a nice combo of shooting skill, feel and offensive versatility. Eddison stat line against Jackson Reed game. Finish with 6 points 3-3 from the field, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1steal and 1 block in 25 minutes of action.     Khory physical maturity and strong frame is simply overwhelming for opponents to match up with, he's explosive with control around the basket to take off and find a way to finish, making difficult plays around the rim effortlessly. Khory was solid in his play against the national power Paul VI team. Finish the game with 7 points on 3-4 shooting, 1 rebound, and 2 assists. 24 minutes of action.     Axton is young fundamentally sound guard who played with the poise of an upper classmen in transition and half-court sets. Unselfish with the ball in his hands and has burst when attacking the rim. Better as an off-ball scorer/playmaker than a primary but Axton has a good IQ, shot-making ability and defensive presence that college coaches desire. Knock down 2 big 3 pointers in the game against a tough Landon School to help Gonzaga secure a 69-65 victory. Looking forward to seeing Axton continue improvement under the guidance of Coach Keith Urgo.     On the smaller end for a two guard but productive due to shot selection, 3-point shooting prowess and ability to get to the rim constantly. Plays the right way and within flow of the game but knows when to hit remix button and get a bucket when his team needs it. I have been watching James play since his middle school days. The young man just knows how to play the game in a deceptive and crafty fashion. In 20 minutes of action, scored 11(3-11 3pt line) points, 1 rebound, and 1 steal.     The quick twitchy ball handler played a little erratic throughout the two games he played. But flash his ball handling chops, Downhill ability putting rim pressure and scored Fast, has counters and finishes with blend of power and finesse. Dynamic driver, as he can attack both ways effectively. Scored 27 points on 10-26 from the field, 2 rebounds, and 9 assists in the two games this weekend. Once Kenyon improves on his perimeter (0-6 3pt FG) shooting. Kenyon has the potential to be an all-around guard to monitor for the next two years.
