Buckeye State Bash Sunday 17 U Morning Standouts

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Prep Hoops Circuit made a stop in Ohio this weekend and in this article we'll break down the standout 17 U performers I saw this morning.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2479749"],"_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-6a009662dda5c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In a blowout win to open the morning, Ross continued where he left off on Saturday as a productive slashing wing who can finish above the rim when given a runway and used his physical tools defensively and to grab rebounds. A consistent producer on this Midwest Daniels squad, Ross will join our 2027 rankings during the next update thanks to his combination of positional size, interior scoring, defensive versatility and production. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2836010"],"_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-6a009662ddb5b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the better small school scorers in southwest Ohio, McDermott is the definition of a bucket at both the high school and grassroots level. Playing on balance, McDermott is most comfortable in the mid-range area where he gets to his spot and is confident to pull-up and shoot at a high percentage. This Midwest Daniels team is starting to hit their stride this spring as they head into the live period with a lot of momentum with numerous small college talents on their roster.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2382060"],"_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-6a009662ddc22"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top players I saw all weekend, Brown was dominant for unbeaten London Ramblers Basketball. With a quick trigger on his 3-point shot, Brown didn't need much time or space to fire away from long distance with his feet set. London Ramblers Basketball ran nice sets for Brown to get looks as he scored as a spot-up shooter, off DHO actions and in transition. Talented athlete who should be looked at for scholarship opportunities at the college level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2382053"],"_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-6a009662ddce3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A guy who did a lot of the dirty work for his team, I liked the rebounding and energy he brought for his group. Mostly scoring on the interior, Ibikunle could create his own offense by crashing the glass off missed shots. The length and athleticism also gives Ibikunle some defensive upside down the road in his career. Worthwhile trip for the team from Canada to make this weekend to Ohio to come away with some quality wins.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3509086"],"_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-6a009662dddbe"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The [program_tooltip program_id='2075603' first='Kentucky' last='Defenders'] got quality scoring production from their guard duo of Stanton and [player_tooltip player_id='3580811' first='Lucas' last='Hoyt']. I liked Stanton's pace on the ball, not forcing the issue and reading the defenses movements to make them pay. Stanton hit some pull up jumpers when the defenders went under screens and also made the extra pass to his teammates when he was cut off while attacking. Cooper is set to return their two double-digit scorers from last season with Stanton as one of them as the Jags could be one of the most improved teams in northern Kentucky from last season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
