With super long arms, one can see the potential in Kleve's young game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A switchable defender that could guard 1 through 5, Kleve is thin and quick enough to keep up with guards without fouling and matching up with bigs thanks to his size. If Kleve can sharpen his offensive skillset -- including a consistent back-to-the-basket game against players his age in the immediate future -- the freshman could be special for Sergeant Bluff-Luton. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3598023"],"_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-69f691d347521"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The smallest player on the court as an 8th-grader playing alongside and against freshmen, [player_tooltip player_id='3598023' first='Lucas' last='King'] was willing to take on anyone and everyone. Absolutely unafraid of the competition, King played with a tight handle and a mean crossover that was difficult to cover in space. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Making up for his lack of size on the defensive side of the floor with effort and hustle, King wasn't a player that was easily taken advantage of on that end of the floor, because of how hard he played every possession. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3598512"],"_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-69f691d3475ab"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A prospect that loved to play fast, [player_tooltip player_id='3598512' first='Jakoby' last='Olorundami'] was always looking to get out and run for Swarm. Playing hounding defense on the perimeter, forcing deflections and making everything difficult on his opponents, Olorundami is the type of player one loves to play with and hates to play against.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">If he wasn't the one to force the turnover, the 8th-grader was at the forefront of the fast break, speeding down the court to get the easy deuce in transition.
