<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are seven prospects that shined on day two of the Prep Hoops Rocky Mountain Mayhem in Denver, Colorado!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2416739"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e45ee4f407b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Graham showcased his sky high potential on Saturday, as his game consists of a great balance of skill and athleticism. He was playing above the rim in transition whenever he got the chance, throwing down a handful of dunks in the open floor. He connected on several three-point looks, taking advantage of a poor contest every time. The 6'3” wing is also very versatile defensively, being able to match up with any kind of player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1782686"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e45ee4f4148"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Styles put on a show in a Saturday win with Team TruHeight. The Utah commit is so quick and so strong, making drives to the basket look easy, being able to make one move to blow by his defender. He was pulling up from well beyond the three-point line, showing off his deep range. Clemmons was clearly the best player on the floor in the matchup I watched, leading his team to a tight win down the stretch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2823178"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e45ee4f3f3e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Michael brings so much to the table as a lead guard, being able to do it all. He is a great passer and looked good pushing the pace and creating scoring opportunities for teammates and himself. He plays very hard, hustling for loose balls and giving maximum effort on defense. Thalacker showed he could score from all three levels and was huge in an overtime win for Peak2Peak.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2396650"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e45ee4f3fac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jarell was one of the top bucket getters I've seen this weekend. The 5'10” guard may be undersized, but he makes up for it with his quickness and difficult shot making. He could connect on shots off the dribble from the perimeter, as well as work inside for floaters, showing off his touch. Thompson was at his best when playing fast and going to work in isolation situations.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2398735"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e45ee4f4015"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Despite a tough overtime loss, Drew turned in an excellent performance Saturday morning. He was great when pressuring the ball, forcing turnovers that lead to transition layups on the other end. He was tough to stop when he got downhill at full speed, being able to finish with either hand in a variety of ways. Wells is also a major threat from deep, connecting on triples off the dribble and off the catch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3492910"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e45ee4f40e3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jashawn was fun to watch with the ball in his hands on Saturday, as he was great at getting everyone involved. He impressed me most on the defensive side of the ball, trapping and getting in passing lanes to force turnovers that led to a lot of fast break opportunities. Nobles can shoot it from deep or work inside for different kinds of finishes, turning a great all-around performance.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2825727"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e45ee4f3ea2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">DJ made some huge plays down the stretch to lead his team to a comeback victory on Saturday. He is a strong guard and used his size to bump defenders on drives to the basket, using his touch on different kinds of finishes inside. He is also a knockdown shooter, connecting with bigtime shots in the clutch. Swan has a very quick release and does not need much space to sink a shot from deep.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
