Boston Three Party - Stock Risers

Today, we'll wrap up our coverage of The Boston Three Party with a look at the event's Stock Risers.   These prospects had some of the most impressive performances of the weekend and distinguished themselves as prospects that should have the chance to play at the next level down the line.   Below are six prospects that did the most to improve their stocks this weekend in Massachusetts.    Durham, a wing out of Mohonasen High School in New York, impressed in spurts with his combination of plus athleticism, versatile skillset, and feel for the game. The 6'3" wing has a good frame, long arms, and the ability to make plays with the ball in his hands. He's a fluid athlete that covers ground quickly and plays with good instincts as an off ball mover. He's a quality finisher around the rim, has the ability to make shots in the mid-range, and is a consistent shooter from behind the arc in catch and shoot situations. Defensively, he has the ability to guard any of four positions and the physical traits to do so at a high level.     Lovett, a guard out of Needham High School in Massachusetts, had the play of the weekend with his game winning runner with 1.6 seconds left against the Anaconda Allstars. The 6'1" guard has really good instincts with the ball in his hands, shows the ability to manipulate the defense, and repeatedly breaks down defenders to get into the paint. He's a creative finisher around the rim, able to finish plays with lay-ups, floaters, and short jumpers. He didn't really have to take any perimeter jumpers when we watched, but his form looks good from the free throw line, so shooting shouldn't be an issue. Defensively, he can guard either back-court spot and plays with a whole lot of competitiveness on that end of the floor.     Mason, a wing out of Monument Mountain Regional High School in Massachusetts, was a standout every time he took the floor while showcasing an incredible versatile offensive skillset. The 6'4" wing did a great job of attacking the rim off the bounce, both in transition and off catches in the half-court. He was able to get by the initial defender with a long first stride and wasn't afraid to take on secondary defenders with euro-steps or bully-ball finishes around the rim. He's a good athlete that has long arms and look like he's just starting to scratch the surface of what he could be offensively. On the other end of the floor, he has the ability to guard in the paint or on the perimeter and rebounds it at a really high level in traffic.     Solomon, a forward out of Needham High School in Massachusetts, popped with both positional size and a budding skillset that hinted as some high level long-term upside. The 6'6" forward can operate as a jumbo playmaker and is already a high level grab and go rebounder on the defensive end of the floor. He has a good frame and terrific length, which allows him to make plays in the paint on both ends of the floor. He covers ground quickly with long strides, can defend in the post without fouling, and does a nice job of blocking shots out of rotations. Offensively, he's really good in transition and already shows some high level decision making instincts. Beyond that, he's an instinctive cutter and plus finisher around the rim.     Washington, a guard out of Reason Prep Academy in Massachusetts, was the talk of the gym on Saturday after putting up 30 points in one of the day's first games. I didn't get to see Washington play in that game, but was impressed with him the rest of the weekend. The 6'3" guard reportedly picked up an offer from Pacific recently and it's easy to see why as he has great positional size and length and is already a high level playmaker with the ball in his hands. He's a plus athlete that can finish plays above the rim, thrives in transition as a creator, and has the ability to make tough shots in isolation situations. Defensively, he can guard any of three positions on the perimeter and quickly turns steals into scoring opportunities in transition.     Wood, a guard out of the St. Andrew's School in Rhode Island, proved to be one of the best guards at the event with his advanced feel for the game and ability to impact winning. The 5'10" guard was in constant attack mode this weekend, showing the ability to play through contact as a driver, and to finish it in a variety of ways in the paint. He's got a quick first step, plays with good burst when attacking the rim, and has enough athleticism to get his shot off when defenders are in the area. He's got good enough vision to create for his teammates off the bounce and also shows the ability to knock down threes both off the catch and the dribble. Defensively, he hounds opposing ball-handlers while also showing good instincts off the ball and the ability to make plays in passing lanes.
