<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are the top shooters and defenders in the 15u group from day one. From deep range shots to causing havoc on defense, these kids showed how great of two way players they are. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2850469"],"_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-6a1b908b6f974"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Reed proved that he is one of the best shooters in the 15u group today. He was able to get to his spots with ease and ran the court so he could get open shot opportunities. He knocked down 1 three in the first half of their game and followed it up with 2 more in the second half. He was also very vocal on defense, commanding what defense to play and making sure everyone in the gym heard his voice. He will definitely have a great summer and contribute a great amount.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2896223"],"_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-6a1b908b6f9b7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Despite his size, Sam was showcasing how useful he is on the court. He was able to get sneaky steals due to his small size and created good scoring opportunities for his teammates on fast breaks. He got multiple steals when the offense wasn't paying attention and turned them into very good offensive possessions. When he wasn't getting steals, he was calm and able to knock down 2 threes. He also chipped in all his free throws he shot to secure the win for him team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2957970"],"_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-6a1b908b6f9dd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kingston started Power Five's dominant win, hitting two tough threes over a taller defender. Being able to do what he does at his size is truly breathtaking. Being able to hit pull-up threes in transition at a high rate is what makes him such a special player. He also showed off his defensive skill by forcing on ball pickups and multipl five second violations. He continued his incredible shooting performance by making 2 more threes in the second half, and one of them was a step back over a much taller defender. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Sam Birrittieri","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2029","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"Closed Gyms North","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a1b908b6fa60"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If you want to see someone draw fouls on three pointers, then you should watch Sam Birrittieri. In the first five minutes he was able to draw two fouls on three point attempts which resulted in 6 quick points from him. Even after that, he was able to hit 2 more threes on top of that right out the gate. Once his team was in the bonus, he cashed in on 4 more free throws, making his total 10/10 from free throw in the game. He was also able to get off-ball steals and turn those into scoring chances for his teammates to keep them in the game. He has a great future and looks to become one of the best shooters in the 15u group this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3565166"],"_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-6a1b94920ab5b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Simon is the ultimate three level scorer for his age. He can hit wide open threes when he gets it and drive to the hoop to make tough pull up midranges at a good percentage. He was also able to get a handful of blocks around the rim and at the three point arc too. He was also putting his body on the line and diving on the floor for loose balls showing his hustle. This is what makes him a player that every coach wants. He is able to score from all the levels and able to play defense for a long period of time without getting tired.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
