Long and athletic prospect that has shown to be a difference maker on both ends of the floor. His size and length should help him translate to play up a year at the 15u level. Really excited to see him for the first time this weekend at MADEHoops Midwest Mania.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2636078' first='Micah' last='Mohler'] | 6'4” | Guard | Midwest Basketball Club 3SSB 15</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mohler is one of the top 2029 prospects in the state of Indiana after a huge freshman season leading Austin High School to a regional championship. Physically mature prospect for his age is a versatile guard that has a complete offensive game with the ability to get to the rim, stop and rise in the midrange, and shoots it well from 3. High potential prospect that is primed for a big time spring and summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2956681' first='Will' last='Tonagel'] | 6'0” | Guard | [program_tooltip program_id='2317250' first='Indiana' last='Elite 3SSB'] 15u</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A true point guard with a maturity beyond his years coming off an outstanding freshman season averaging 14.4 points, 3.7 assists, and 2.6 steals for 25-2 Oak Hill. Now he will lead a loaded [program_tooltip program_id='2317250' first='Indiana' last='Elite 3SSB'] 15u team with his ability to control the game with his IQ, playmaking ability, and as a knockdown shooter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2851845' first='Mason' last='Grivna'] | 6'11” | Forward | Wildcat Select 3SSB 15u</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Grivna is an elite prospect in the entire country coming off an invite to USA Basketball trials where he was a standout. The 6'11” Forward out of Louisville Ballard is suiting up for Wildcat Select 3SSB 15u. He's a polished low post scorer with a soft touch and good footwork. He's an elite defender that moves well all over the floor and protects the rim at a high level. He could very well be the top player at MADEHoops Midwest Mania regardless of class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2777935' first='Derez' last='Grider'] | 6'1” | Guard | [program_tooltip program_id='2478682' first='Kentucky' last='Ambition'] MHC 15u</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Silky smooth left handed guard that's coming off an impressive weekend at MADEHoops Indiana Clash. Heady lead guard that does a great job balancing his scoring opportunities with creating open looks for his teammates. The crafty guard is a tempo pusher that's slippery in transition when getting in the lane and showed the ability to finish in a variety of different ways. He will be one of the top 15u guards not only at Midwest Mania, but on the MHC.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2958094' first='Titus' last='Wilburn'] | 5'11” | Guard | [program_tooltip program_id='2471005' first='Legacy' last='Ice Elite'] 2029-15u</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A high energy guard that flat out gets after it on the defensive end. Long and lanky guard with quick feet and active hands has the ability to be a difference maker on the defensive end turning defense to offense in a hurry. Offensively he thrives in transition. Quick first step and tight handle allow him to get to his spots. He's an impact guard on both ends of the floor that will have a big time spring and summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2860080' first='Tristan' last='Breland'] | 6'2” | Guard | [program_tooltip program_id='2317250' first='Indiana' last='Elite 3SSB'] 15u</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Physical defensive minded guard that's coming off a productive freshman season coming off the bench at Fishers. He's an athletic guard that is one of the best in ball defenders in the state of Indiana regardless of class. Quick feet and active hands to go with his physicality helps him guard multiple positions without fouling. A bit raw offensively, but gets downhill and uses his athleticism to finish around the rim. Capable shooter off the catch when he has his feet set. Becomes one of the better guards looking to take a big leap on this team after having to take a backseat during the high school season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
