<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A few Keystone State prospects who had impressive live period showcases on the Made Hoops Circuit and the Hoop Group Showcase League. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3598575"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":3644242,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a0cafcaba663"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This was the second time I have seen Wilkinson this grassroots campaign during the spring and he continued to show promise as a player. He is a threat to knock down shots from behind the arc while playing off the ball. Wilkinson shines battling his way to the bucket in the half-court. His consistency for this group has been seen throughout the spring campaign. He intrigues long-term and should be a name to know in Western Pennsylvania for the following years to come. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2912706"],"_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-6a0cafcaba6e9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Howard is a plug n play gadget man who finds different ways to leave an impact on the game. He uses his length to fall into rebounds and can cause disruption in passing lanes. I like how agile he is on his feet whenever he is on the move. Howard showed his ability to find the bucket in a slew of different ways. Howard's best basketball is ahead of him and should see a larger role with his high school team this coming year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2632695"],"_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-6a0cafcaba75d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Portee impressed with his ability to play on and off the basketball. He hit shots from behind the three point line. He was in good spots to make plays for himself on defense and uses his blend of size and strength to muster his way into passing lanes and turn defense to offense. He was effective in a complimentary role during the game I saw. Portee should take his game to the next level with his decision to repeat his junior year at The Kiski School (PA). </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2288500"],"_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-6a0cafcaba7cc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Thompson was a threat to knock down shots from behind the arc and can't be left open if he is behind the three point line. He made the extra pass and found others. Thompson was able to put the ball on the deck after securing the rebound. Additionally, Thompson found a body to box when he was around the bucket as a defender. Liked how he was able to connect with his post players using a bounce pass when the defense collapsed onto him. He found ways to be in the right spots on the floor. Looking forward to seeing him play with The Hill School (PA) in the June Scholastic periods. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1163399"],"_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-6a0cafcaba839"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I liked how poised Craig was throughout the game I saw of his. He did a nice job articulating off the dribble and making things happen. He scored using his in-between game. I like how Craig was able to move without the basketball in the half-court and likes to set pin-downs to free up space for his teammates to try to make things happen on offense. He regularly took what the defense gave him. He added some scoring depth for his My Basketball Academy MHC squad. Craig has no qualms about putting his body on the line for his team and trying to make hustle plays that impact winning. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3643632"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":3644244,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a0cafcaba8a6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Craciun has a imposing size on the perimeter and made an impact playing an age group. He has great touch from behind the three point line and connected on several threes throughout the day. If his feet are set there is a high chance he is connecting. He also moved the ball and didn't let it stick to his hands. Craciun had a fair share of assists. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
