New Players To See At The Mitten State Mash

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Mitten State Mash, in Dearborn Heights, will be an exciting collection of basketball talent. There will be new names and faces for me to see and scout at the event. I'm going to give you a closer look at some new names and games for me to see at the Mitten State Mash.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Check out more previews of the Mitten State Mash below!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://prephoops.com/2026/05/mitten-state-mash-must-see-17u-guards/","type":"wp-embed","providerNameSlug":"prep-hoops"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-prep-hoops wp-block-embed-prep-hoops"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://prephoops.com/2026/05/mitten-state-mash-must-see-17u-guards/ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://prephoops.com/2026/05/going-back-for-seconds-at-the-mitten-state-mash/","type":"wp-embed","providerNameSlug":"prep-hoops"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-prep-hoops wp-block-embed-prep-hoops"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://prephoops.com/2026/05/going-back-for-seconds-at-the-mitten-state-mash/ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://prephoops.com/2026/05/run-it-back-at-the-mitten-state-mash/","type":"wp-embed","providerNameSlug":"prep-hoops"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-prep-hoops wp-block-embed-prep-hoops"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://prephoops.com/2026/05/run-it-back-at-the-mitten-state-mash/ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3575162"],"_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-69fc699c249bf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bogart is definitely on my list of players to see this weekend. He's listed on the [program_tooltip program_id='3575480' first='ATA' last='Elite'] 17u squad. Bogart is a versatile forward that moves well by the rim and on the perimeter. Bogart can probably defend both forward spots. There's some very real upside to him as a player and prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2575891"],"_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-69fc699c24a35"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I've heard good things about [player_tooltip player_id='2575891' first='Cruz' last='Willis'] and I'm excited to see him play with the Cincy Reapers this weekend. I'm looking forward to seeing a guard that can advance the ball and initiate an offense like a lead guard, but also shoot and get buckets. Willis has a bit of a reputation as a player that can fill it up from deep.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2436222"],"_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-69fc699c24a82"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Reed is a player that scouts and coaches will want to have an eye on when he plays for the [program_tooltip program_id='2076061' first='Detroit' last='Bulldogs'] this weekend. He's a quick and athletic guard that can play both on and off the ball. Reed can definitely shoot and has range that extends beyond the arc.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3608697"],"_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-69fc699c24acb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fantroy will be a critical player for a talented Thurston team next high school season. The Mitten State Mash will be a great place to get a preview of how that might look. Fantroy can be found on the Rising Sunz roster. He's an elusive guard that can attack with shiftiness and by going north-south and turning a corner on his defender.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3599513"],"_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-69fc699c24b13"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It seems like I've heard about Powell for years now but have never really had the chance to scout his game. I'm hoping to get that chance this weekend. Powell is on the Jackets Elite 17u roster. He's definitely on the list to see.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
