This kid is an absolute stud. From the opening tip he puts his imprint on the game and impacts on both ends of the floor. High motor guard that is always in attack mode. He's a quick, physical guard that plays through contact as well as any player I saw this weekend. He's under control when he gets in the lane and showed really nice footwork when going to his counter move. He's a game changer on the defensive end with his ability to guard multiple positions and his ability to rebound his position at a high level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2369890"],"_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-6a1c2460e951a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A natural scorer from the wing spot, 6'3” 2030 Wing [player_tooltip player_id='2369890' first='Chad' last='Carter Jr'] would've been the top 2030 prospect I had seen over the weekend, except his brother was also really good. From the opening tip, Chad was in attack mode. The long and lanky wing showed his full offensive skill set scoring from all three levels while playing with a relentless mindset to get all the way to the rim. At times he made this difficult game look very easy. The sky is the limit for him potential wise.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2369892"],"_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-6a1c2460e9587"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The second of the brothers from Joliet West, [player_tooltip player_id='2369892' first='Connor' last='Carter'] showed tremendous poise and feel with the ball in his hands. More of a true point guard, unlike his brother that was comfortable off the ball, Connor possesses excellent court vision to go with his mature size where he can see over the defense. He never got sped up. He was able to use his able to shield off defenders when driving. As impressive of a 2030 prospect I have seen from the point guard spot. High IQ, takes care of the ball, and balances the offense getting his teammates involved along with his scoring.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3622389"],"_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-6a1c2460e9385"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The most electric guard I saw this weekend. [player_tooltip player_id='3622389' first='Isaiah' last='Futch'], the Fishers guard playing for [program_tooltip program_id='2076924' first='EG10' last=''] 15u completely took over the game on the defensive side of the ball in the big time win over Mac Elite on Saturday Night. Had a couple stretches in the game where he got back to back steals that led to buckets. Futch is an explosive guard with a deep bag. Thrives in transition where he can use his speed and athleticism. Gets to the basket with ease while also creating open looks for teammates. Capable three point shooter that shoots it with a clean, confident stroke.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3626117"],"_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-6a1c2460e94a6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The best performance of the weekend comes from one of the top scoring guards in the Indiana in-state class of 2029 in [player_tooltip player_id='3626117' first='Braysen' last='Russell']. He got his offense going early and often showing why he's highly touted in the state. Smooth offensive talent that scores from all three levels. Understands change of pace and angles while not being the quickest or most athletic player, he figures out a way to get to his spot and is able to score efficiently.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2956158"],"_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-6a1c2460e95f3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Skilled 6'3” wing/forward that showed off his versatility in a big win. Quicker than what he looks, he did a good job staying under control and taking what the defense gives him. He's an on balance driver that can play through contact and get all the way to the rim. Hasn't really shown much of a middle game off the bounce but shoots a confident ball off the catch from three.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
