<p>Todd was [player_tooltip player_id='2382174' first='Brennan' last='']'s most reliable offensive option and the game's most efficient scorer. He knocked down perimeter shots in rhythm, spaced the floor consistently, and made himself available as a release valve when possessions stalled. His shot selection stayed disciplined, and he competed defensively without fouling. In a low-efficiency game, his ability to convert clean looks stood out.</p>

<p>Tarpley provided interior stability and physical presence. He finished efficiently around the rim, rebounded his area, and absorbed contact without rushing shots. Defensively, he held his ground and limited easy finishes inside. His production came from effort and positioning rather than designed touches.</p>

<p>McCaskill was the most consistent downhill threat on the floor. He attacked the paint, drew fouls, and converted at the line in key moments. While perimeter shooting was limited, his ability to pressure the rim forced defensive rotations and kept Vashon's offense functional late.</p>
