High Impact Sophomore Guards

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Get to know a handful of sophomore guards putting together outstanding seasons this winter. These guys have already proven to be high-impact players on their teams, and yet are just getting started in their high school journeys. Check out some guy you'll want to remember in this 2028 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2627277"],"_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-697a45ec7e2b9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He's been one of the breakout players this winter, and it starts with his incredible shooting. Has the range to hit from just about anywhere on the court and has done it in big spots for the Crusaders. Has done a good job handling the rock, getting separation, and has a quick release on his jumper. Has also shown the ability to get creative by the rim and finish in a lot of ways. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2625563"],"_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-697a45ec7e31a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mosby continues to put up big numbers at Lakeside, averaging 30.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 2.1 steals per game this season, while shooting 40% from 3PT. He sees the floor extremely well, which helps him get to his spots, avoid double teams and traps, and really attack screens at a high level. And while he's been a bucket getter (two 40+ point games, nine 30+ point games), he's also been upping his assist totals over the last handful of games, notching 4+ assists in each of his last five games, and 5+ assists in four of those.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2746863"],"_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-697a45ec7e363"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">O'Dea has been one of the toughest and most physically imposing teams this winter, and this sophomore guard has helped them keep the pressure high on both ends of the floor. Duckett plays with great intensity on both ends. He has the quickness and decisiveness with the ball to get to the hoop and finish strong. And he shows good instincts under pressure to get out of bad spots and make quick decisions. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2751572"],"_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-697a45ec7e3a4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kentridge is on pace to have their best season since 2022-23, when they finished 17-6. They are currently 16-3 and have already doubled their win total from a year ago. A large part of their growth this season has been the all-around impact of sophomore guard [player_tooltip player_id='2751572' first='Jaylen' last='Keowla']. He understands their offensive concepts, makes great reads with the ball, and has shown the ability to knock down big shots inside and outside. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2876843"],"_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-697a45ec7e3e2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nunez just scored a school record 43 points in their last game against Ephrata. The sophomore guard has a smooth stroke from behind the arc, but also does a nice job identifying lanes to attack, and generally does a pretty good job attacking under control and with the ability to assess his options on the go. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
