<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>All of these guys have helped their teams remain alive to this point in the district playoffs, and each plays a key role with their size, athleticism, and versatility. Check out these impact wings as they continue their runs through district playoffs with eyes on the state tournament.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2827878"],"_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-6995efef48cd6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The bouncy wing has been an excellent inside finisher for the Wolverines this year. Has a great repertoire of finishes from the midrange and in, using short jumpers, floaters, runners, and some toughness by the rim. Has also been a key guy in getting second-chance points for them; he's tough on the glass and has a quick second jump to get to a lot of offensive boards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2729681"],"_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-6995efef48db2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Lynden wing is a big, strong player who has really thrived from behind the arc both last season and this year, but he's also elevated his ability to create opportunities downhill. While he's a strong kid with a big frame, he's also displayed some pretty nimble feet and an ability to use that base to split defenders inside and find space around the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2827907"],"_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-6995efef48e61"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Williams was his league's defensive player of the year last season, and while he's continued to play an integral part of Lincoln's defense, he's also expanded his impact offensively. He's shown more consistent finishing around bodies in close and has become a more reliable shooter in the midrange, hitting some tough, short turnaround shots. His ability to work the paint and add in some second-chance points has given the Abes more success on the glass for a team lacking some height up front.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1685504"],"_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-6995efef48efc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Groves is back in the fold at Gonzaga Prep after missing some time with injuries and has been pretty solid for the Bullpups this winter. He's still a legit threat to drop in shots behind the arc, and has been very effective using his size and strength inside to bump defenders off and get a little space to bury jump hooks. Even after losing some key guys from last year's championship team, they should make another run this year, especially with Groves back healthy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
