<p><strong>#72) [player_tooltip player_id='3571284' first='Sam' last='Naidyhorski'] | 6'7” SF | Norfolk Collegiate</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Naidyhorski emerged as a very intriguing prospect for Norfolk Collegiate this season, showing a lot of versatility and the ability to impact the game in a lot of different ways. The 6'7” forward is an inside-out mismatch threat who can post smaller defenders and finish over both shoulders, he can stretch the floor from deep with good range and create driving lanes, he's a good passer both on the perimeter and out of the post, and he walls up and challenges shots at the rim too.</p>

<p><strong>#75) [player_tooltip player_id='2898054' first='Jayden' last='Detrick'] | 6'3” SG | Woodside</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Detrick has been very good for Woodside over the past few years, emerging as a secondary scorer who can fill it up in a lot of different ways. The 6'3” wing is a knock down shooter from deep with a quick release and the ability to work off the ball, he can attack closeouts off the catch and get to spots and make tough midranges, he's active defensively using his length to challenge shots, and he can do a lot of little things to help his team as well.</p>

<p><strong>#112) [player_tooltip player_id='2570862' first='Gavin' last='Mallette'] | 6'2” SG | Norfolk Collegiate</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Mallette transferred to NoCo this past season where he stepped right into a role that they needed as a knock down shooter and high IQ guard. He can really shoot it from deep with the ability to space the floor and make teams play 4-on-4, he can attack closeouts and get to spots in the midrange, he's a good secondary ball handler who makes good decisions, and he gives great effort on both ends of the floor.</p>

<p><strong>#114) [player_tooltip player_id='2470595' first='Jonathan' last='Lee'] | 6'3” SF | Catholic</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lee had a breakout season at Catholic as their sixth man, as he is able to impact the game in a lot of different ways without needing to be the focal point of the offense. He has great length that allows him to make plays defensively and rebound on both ends, he's a strong finisher through traffic when he gets downhill, he makes the right read and play consistently, and he can make open shots as well.</p>

<p><strong>#123) [player_tooltip player_id='3571365' first='Crystian' last='Tyndall'] | 6'3” SG | Manor</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Tyndall was one of the breakout players in the 757 this season, and he is one of the more all-around and polished wings you will come across in the state. At 6'3” he's strong and plays with great pace on the ball to be able to handle pressure and create for himself and others, he can get to spots and score it from all three levels, he has a great IQ as a playmaker for his position, and he can work off the ball and knock down shots from deep too.</p>
