<p>The competition was fierce at the PH Live event this past weekend, but a select group of prospects managed to separate themselves by doing the most valuable thing in modern basketball: stretching the floor. Whether it was catching and firing, pulling up off the bounce, or calling game at the buzzer, these perimeter threats put on an absolute clinic. Here is a look at the top shooting standouts from the weekend's action in Plainfield.</p>

<p>Morrissette put together one of the most memorable scoring weekends of the entire tournament. He kicked things off on Friday night in Batavia by catching absolute fire, burying 7 three-pointers with a highly disciplined feel for the game. He didn't just flash hot streaks, though—he backed it up on Saturday by knocking down 4 more triples, including a cold-blooded, game-winning buzzer-beater against [program_tooltip program_id='2076459' first='Breakaway' last='']. When the lights are brightest, Morrissette wants the ball.</p>

<p>If you are looking for pure consistency, Kammes is the blueprint. Standing at 6-foot-2, he is an elite shooter who possesses a lightning-quick release that catches defenders off guard. What makes him doubly dangerous is his versatility; he is highly effective playing on or off the ball, showcasing the advanced basketball instincts required to find open space and exploit defenses all weekend long.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2369858' first='Jonny' last='Udoiwod'] | YnR 2029</strong></p>

<p>How do you guarantee a spot on a top-shooters list? Go out and casually drill seven three-pointers in a single game. Udoiwod did exactly that, putting on a spectacular display of perimeter scoring. The young guard plays with a confidence that bodes incredibly well for his future, and he has already solidified a very strong position for himself in our initial 2029 class rankings.</p>

<p><strong>Aidan Yazdan | [program_tooltip program_id='2075481' first='Fundamental' last='U'] 2029</strong></p>

<p>Yazdan may be a smaller guard, but his game speaks volumes. He put on a phenomenal shooting performance on Sunday morning, lethal from beyond the arc as he poured in **6 triples**. He boasts deep range and is equally dangerous pulling up in transition or spacing the floor off the catch. To keep defenders honest, he showed he can put the ball on the floor and mix in a soft floater, making him a nightmare to close out on.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2403357' first='Andrey' last='Markov'] | [program_tooltip program_id='2076459' first='Breakaway' last=''] 2028</strong></p>

<p>Markov is a lengthy, highly impactful guard who brings a ton of energy to the hardwood. While he stood out heavily on the defensive end with his tough perimeter pressure, his offensive bag is just as impressive. He is a high-level shot-maker who can knock them down off the bounce or the catch. More than just a specialist, Markov showed sneaky pop off the dribble to create his own look.</p>

<p><strong>Bleu Armour | AjamHoops 2028</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Armour continues to build a reputation as an elite three-point marksman. He was locked in from deep this weekend, connecting on **5 three-pointers** by showcasing the ability to hit them both off the catch and off a comfortable live-dribble bounce. He plays with an excellent sense of pace, and his ability to lock down defensively on and off the ball makes him a complete, winning player.</p>

<p><strong>Cameron Moore | MN Magic 2028</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Moore is a rangy guard who makes legitimate college-level range look effortless. He handles the ball smoothly and loves to push the tempo in the open floor, putting defenders on their heels. His weekend peak came during a Sunday morning matchup where he confidently dialed it up from deep, knocking down five triples to spark the Magic.</p>
