The young lefty plays inside and he got things done against taller defenders with sheer effort. He attacked the basket and was getting second and third offensive rebounds with his tenacity. He was driving it well from the high post when he got to his dominant left hand.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*****</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":3282616,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/12/IMG_8640.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/12/IMG_8640.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-3282616" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>John Haberkorn (Eureka): A 6'2 2026 forward who has a rock solid body that is built for contact.

He is averaging 14 points a game this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*****</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":3282628,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/12/IMG_8664.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/12/IMG_8664.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-3282628" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fred Amad (Lindbergh): A 5'10 2026 point guard who had a good second half in the third place game against Eureka.
