<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>These were a few notable forwards I saw at the Governors Challenge.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1782681"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69587e75125a5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Aguolu showcased his ability to play inside and out for his Miller squad. He connected on three 3 pointers in a loss versus Chaminade (NY). He uses his long arms to collect rebounds. I like how he is able to fill the lane in transition. He has the ability to play above the rim. He finished with a team high 21 points in the game I evaluated of him. I like the energy he plays with anytime he steps onto the floor. He is a prospect who should see a ton of foot traffic from division one coaches over the next several months. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2458579"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69587e7512604"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Really like Briscoe's ability to play inside and out. He was a constant threat to space the floor and was able to finish around the bucket. He also impacted shots on the defensive event show he can guard different positions. He was effective running the floor in transition. Briscoe was in all the right spots on offense to keep chances alive with his rebounding. Briscoe has a handful of offers from mid to high major programs. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2893757"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69587e751264d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Garris made an impact on the game in many different facets. He was in good spots on the floor to get rebounds. He is an effective rim protector with great length. He did a nice job running the floor. He chipped in 12 and 9 in a loss to Sallies (DE). I liked his activity on the offensive glass which allowed him to keep possessions going. He was very efficient with his shot selection. He needs to continue to produce and live in the weight room, if so he should see a ton of low major division one programs tracking his foot steps throughout the spring and summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2780037"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69587e7512753"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rose plays with a solid deal of versatility and took whatvever the defensive gave him and touched the paint with ease. He can play inside and play on the perimeter. Rose is a tad of a tweener which can help and hurt hum but doesn't let that define him. He had 17 points in a loss to Lincoln Prep (ON). He made the most of his chances at the foul line. Rose also showed some promise as a passer connecting with teammates a few times for scoring chances of their own. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3295646"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6959e577908cf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Acosta-Reyes impressed with his ability to make things happen on either end of the floor. He converted many easy scoring chances around the painted areas of the floor. He has soft hands and soft touch. I liked how he was in all the right spots to rebound. He was very assertive running the floor and is a threat to catch lobs. His timing on the defensive end was seen altering shots. Both the games I evaluated of him he had double figures. I also liked how he showed that he can pass the basketball. He is a prospect who should see a fair share of traction from scholarship programs. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

These were a few notable forwards I saw at the Governors Challenge.
