<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The Prep Hoops Crimson Clash wasn't just deep it was layered with talent at every position, and this group brought a mix of size, skill, and production that translated directly to impacting winning. From versatile wings to downhill guards and interior anchors, these players didn't just show flashes they produced and made their presence felt. Here is another group that stood out in a major way…</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":3583079,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/Henry-McKinnon.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/Henry-McKinnon.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-3583079" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Henry McKinnon</strong> (6'4/SF/2027/GSE Select 17u) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @henrymckinnon27</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Henry was an intriguing, versatile talent who showed his ability to facilitate and score the rock. He is a multifaceted wing who can produce from all levels. He has good positional size and created mismatch problems throughout the day. He is not the most athletic, but he has a mature floor game and knows how to operate to get to his spots on the floor where he can be productive as a scorer and distributor. He plays off jump stops and pivots, using footwork that puts defenders at a disadvantage. He needs touches as he impacts winning with his scoring ability.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":3583081,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/Jonathan-Hill-jr.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/Jonathan-Hill-jr.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-3583081" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Jonathan Hill, Jr.</strong> (6'5/PF|C/2028/Bama Celtics) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">TikTok: Yojonjon</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Jonathan was an interior presence who showed a more advanced game on the defensive end of the floor and on the glass. He is still developing offensively, but he does have a foundation to build upon. There were some games in which he had significant mismatches, and he was able to dominate on the inside. Other times, when there was a similar size or length and a little resistance, you saw the need for the continued development of his offensive tool kit. Defensively, his length helps him to be a rim protector and to force tough shots.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":3583083,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/Jamal-Culver.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/Jamal-Culver.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-3583083" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Jamal Culver</strong> (6'4/CG/2028/Bama Celtics) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @jamal_culver</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Jamal is a potent scorer who can play on and off the ball. He plays with a level of confidence with the ball that allows him to dictate pace and apply pressure. His dribble-drive game is a major weapon that helps him to get downhill, force defenses to collapse, and make plays in the heart of the defense. He attacks to create advantages, and he consistently turns those moments into opportunities for his teammates. His ability as a playmaker off the bounce is one of his biggest strengths, as he has the vision and instincts to make plays that others don't see.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":3583084,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/aubrey-coker.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/aubrey-coker.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-3583084" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Aubrey Coker</strong> (5'8/CG/2028/ITM [program_tooltip program_id='2076578' first='Steel' last='City Gators']) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @aubreycoker4</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">TikTok: showt1m3.4 &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Aubrey is a small guard listed as a combo guard who plays on and off the ball. He is at his best when the ball is in his hands, and he has the freedom to create his offense off the bounce. He thrives in the open floor where he has gaps to attack and put pressure on the rim. On this team, he is one of their primary scorers, as he is good at shooting from long-range and scoring at the rim. He consistently demonstrated his ability to create his own shot and set up teammates for open looks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":3583088,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/Zavier-Starks.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/Zavier-Starks.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-3583088" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Zavier Starks</strong> (6'4/CG/2027/Panhandle Prospects) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @Zavierstarks</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Zavier showed an impressive feel for scoring as he showed himself to be a multi-level scorer. He has shot-making abilities and was a tough cover for any defense he faced over the weekend. He has a frame that he can build upon and strengthen as he enters his senior year. When the ball is in his hands, he proved to be a self-creator who could get his shot at any time during a possession. When he wants to get to the paint, he drives with physicality and power, and showed that he could finish with authority and touch. He also showed that he has no problem making advanced shots from the midi and behind the arc. As he continues to hone his offensive tools, look for his threat level as a scorer to increase heading into his senior year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":3583089,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/DJ-Oliver-.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/04/DJ-Oliver-.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-3583089" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2748374' first='DJ' last='Oliver']</strong>  (5'9/PG/2028/Iron City Huskies) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">In the game I watched, DJ play, he started slow, then got it going. He is a tough downhill attacking guard who attacks with a level of physicality. He showed his ability to play on and off the ball with this squad and was really looking for his offense often. He showed himself to be effective as both a scorer and distributor, making quick reads and exploiting defensive mismatches. He scored at all three levels and, when needed, showed he has no problem getting a bucket for his team when needed.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
