Here is a look at some of the best that broke out in Chicago's first stop of the spring in <strong>Chi-Town Tip Off: Scotty B's 2028 New Names Emerge</strong>!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3579289' first='JP' last='Brock'] ([program_tooltip program_id='2076459' first='Breakaway' last=''])</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wheaton Academy 6'4” shooting guard jumped off the floor to us with his size for position along with bouncy athleticism.&nbsp; Really got after it on the defensive end sliding his feet staying in front of his man.&nbsp; Also knocked in some pull ups in the mid-range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Tyrese Matthews ([program_tooltip program_id='2828653' first='Greater' last='Purpose Athletics'])</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This Marshall 6'4” power forward is a long and lanky four man that was super quick to the offensive glass for put backs and dunks.&nbsp; The athleticism played running the floor and playing above the rim.&nbsp; Another piece to add to an already loaded young core for Marshall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Gus Tashima and [player_tooltip player_id='3517465' first='Zach' last='Czaja'] (Midwest Bobcats)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Couple of talented guards for Midwest Bobcats.&nbsp; Tashima hails from Palatine where he showed the ability to get downhill in the open floor for reverse layups and acrobatic finishes.&nbsp; His teammate from Prospect Czaja was more of the on ball shooter that poured in several threes while also getting others involved.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2832417' first='Sincere' last='Curry'] ([program_tooltip program_id='2075532' first='Illinois' last='Bears'])</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Breakout weekend for Curry as we knew about his older brother, but the Marion 6'5” combo forward in the 2028 class put his name on the map in a major way.&nbsp; Long and lanky frame with projection.&nbsp; Played off his physical gifts converting on dump off passes and using his length defensively to cut passing lanes for points on the other end. &nbsp;Played very well in transition and off the glass.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2403230' first='Jewan' last='Garner'] ([program_tooltip program_id='2622592' first='Flight' last='Athletics'])</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Long and rangy combo guard from Bolingbrook that showed promise.&nbsp; Soft touch finishing game, quickness finishing in the paint, and got after it on the defensive end at the point of attack.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3430192' first='Xavier' last='Johnson'] (Windy City Wolves)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Johnson is a thick bodied 6'3” forward that proved to be a high level rebounder.&nbsp; Did it on both ends along with having a nice looking hook shot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3588289' first='Havi' last='Johnson'] (Windy City Wolves)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The twin of Xavier is also about 6'3” with a thick frame.&nbsp; He powered his way in for scores showcasing some handle and was super impactful on the glass.&nbsp; Brothers play at Christ the King.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Eden Mayala ([program_tooltip program_id='2078449' first='Meanstreets' last=''])</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mayala is a 6'6” post from Galesburg that popped on our radar with his super strong frame and long arms.&nbsp; Physical on the glass for put backs and flashed athleticism converting around the cup.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3589159' first='Destin' last='Spears'] ([program_tooltip program_id='2075532' first='Illinois' last='Bears'])</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Spears put his name on our map with a nice outing.&nbsp; The Carbondale two guard brings a strong and athletic profile to the table.&nbsp; He was explosive with the ball in his hands as a scorer from multiple levels.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2948252' first='Braden' last='Obszanski'] ([program_tooltip program_id='2075532' first='Illinois' last='Bears'])</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Upside play here as the 6'5” four man from Breese Central has a projectable frame and solid mobility.&nbsp;
