<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2393695' first='Montae' last='Johnson'] starts our top five off on an electric note, as he's currently leading his team in scoring (15.2 PPG) while shooting 50 percent from downtown. What makes Johnson a top guard in Colorado is his natural playmaking abilities and IQ with the rock. You can always expect a perfect delivery from Johnson when he's attacking downhill, looking for his teammates to dish the ball to. Expect more loud performances from the all-pro box state hooper.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2467733' first='Champ' last='Spears'] is a fearless combo guard who makes any unlucky defender who has to guard him look silly. Spears is on track for a productive season, coming up with just over 12 points a game and 4 rebounds as only a sophomore. Playmaking and shot creation are where Spears thrives the most, confidently orchestrating the offense and making the right decision. [player_tooltip player_id='2467733' first='Champ' last='Spears'] is a guy you need to follow. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2956814' first='Dray' last='Cordova'] excels at knocking down difficult shots off the dribble and being a relentless scorer. Cordova minimizes turnovers and is always aware of the situation at hand. The 5'8 point guard out of Northfield has taken tremendous strides with his style of play, and it's paid off. It'll be fascinating to see where he improves his game moving forward and his progress up the rankings. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2821297' first='Jonathan' last='Caban'] has cemented himself in Mesa Ridge's offense, and his shot-creating speaks for itself. Caban utilizes his 5'11 frame to shoot over other guards and get an extra step on his defender when he's driving downhill. We haven't seen too much of Caban so far, although I believe his production and volume will continue to increase throughout the early months of the new year. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2715513' first='Malaki' last='Sermons'] is a guard you can count on to make plays and score the ball from all three levels at will. When Sermons enters a flow state on offense, good luck slowing him down. What is most impressive about Sermons' game is his patience and poise operating the offense. It's easy to tell Sermons is a star in the making and will continue to make massive strides this year. </p>
