<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sunday morning Prep Hoops checked out Brad Beal Elite in St. Louis as we took in practices from the 15U, 16U, and 17U teams.&nbsp; Here were the 5 prospects that made the biggest impression on us.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Emurion Jackson (East St. Louis – 2029)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jackson is emerging as one of the premier two way athletes in the state.&nbsp; He showcased it the last three weekends two with hoops and one in football.&nbsp; As a basketball player he emerged late in the year for the Flyers including a big showing in the state semis.&nbsp; In their 15U practice the 6'4” wing put on a show on both ends of the floor.&nbsp; His ability to impact defensively being disruptive really stood out.&nbsp; Moves his feet extremely well laterally and is a high level perimeter defender.&nbsp; Offensively he is a slick ball handler that can get downhill to the rack and made several outstanding passes off live dribbles which led to buckets.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Majok Mayuen Ater (Principia, MO – 2029)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Principia big man flashed in limited minutes as a freshman, but is primed to breakout nationally this spring/summer.&nbsp; Bouncy 6'9” five man who plays with a really high-motor.&nbsp; Explosive finisher around the cup that is super quick off the floor and snatches rebounds with ferocity.&nbsp; Even in this setting his energy stood out!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Devin Cleveland (La Lumiere, IN – 2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cleveland joins BBE and will be one of their go to players on the 17U level.&nbsp; His length defensively made an impression on us as he was disruptive at the point of attack creating turnovers.&nbsp; Offensively his continued growth as a passer showed through in ball screen decision making hitting pick/rolls along with shooters and cutters.&nbsp; We already know he is an elite scorer with his deep range on the three ball and ability to get to the cup.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Davis Cochran (Brentwood Academy, TN – 2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This was the prospect that jumped off the floor from the very beginning as a skilled and athletic four that is going to blow up this spring.&nbsp; At 6'10” he moves extremely well for his size being able to run the floor, face up, and impact down low.&nbsp; Garnered deep post position burying his defender for scores in the paint with his size while still being able to stretch the floor with his shooting with an effortless stroke.&nbsp; Can also go shot fake and to the rim.&nbsp; Competitive rebounder in traffic.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Brady Pettigrew (Bolingbrook – 2028)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Pettigrew just has that “it” factor you can't teach.&nbsp; Two guard with size and athleticism that mixes in a high level of skill.&nbsp; Creative off the bounce getting to the rack and playing above the rim.&nbsp; Showed flashes he is primed for a monster spring in the EYBL.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
