New Faces from the Banterra Bank Warriors Showcase

The 6th Annual Banterra Banks Warriors Showcase ended Saturday night. One of the better showcase events in the Southwest Indiana Area that produces different matchups with a lot of quality teams and players from different areas with the hot commodity names as well as guys that step up on the big stage and make a name for themselves. Here are 7 New Faces that caught my attention at the Banterra Bank Warriors Showcase:    Physical specimen that does most of his damage on the low block. High motor athletic forward that makes plays on both ends of the floor with his length, size, and athleticism. Raw offensively, most of his baskets come of dump offs from teammates or the offensive glass, but did show a soft touch from the free throw line. Legit lob threat that sets good screens and rolls hard to the rim.     Smooth Freshman Guard that didn't necessarily have eye popping numbers in the scorebook but loved the way he moved on the floor. Confident guard that looked comfortable playing on or off the ball. Showed a nice clean stroke from the perimeter as well as the ability to get in the lane make plays for himself as well as others.     Intriguing piece for the Bulldogs that didn't get many minutes off the bench, but made his time on the floor count in a big way. He's an active big man with good feet that helps him move well on the defensive end. He does a good job reading the ball off the rim as a rebounder on both ends of the floor. Still raw offensively, but showed flashes of a strong finisher and post presence.     One of the more explosive players that I saw play at the Banterra Bank Warriors Showcase, [player_tooltip player_id='3408258' first='James' last='Bradley Jr.'] of Hopkinsville (KY) had it going from the start. Strong frame with a quick first step helped him get to his spots all game long. He was able to play through contact and stay on balance at the rim to finish easy looks as well as knock down contested jumpers in the lane. Was a player that could play on the ball in the facilitators roll but looked more comfortable creating for himself.     Versatile physical forward that has a unique playstyle for his size. He's a point forward that showed the ability to play all over the floor and initiate offense while making good decisions. He moves extremely well for his size and handles the ball on a string to make him a tough matchup for bigger players and a matchup nightmare on the block if you try to guard him with a smaller guy. Showed a nice three-point stroke telling me he's capable of knocking them down off the catch making him a dangerous offensive weapon at this level.     The Freshman Guard from Arsenal Tech checked in early due to foul trouble and instantly made his mark on the game. He's a long 6'0” guard that uses his length to his advantage on the defensive end wreaking havoc on ball handlers and disrupting passing lanes. Offensively he was mainly off the ball in catch and shoot situations and really showed off the range connecting from deep. Did show glimpses of being able to break his defender down and get in the paint, but most of his productivity came from outside the arc.
