I came away VERY impressed. He has all the physical tools. Coulibaly has a strong frame and he's a solid all around athlete. He's active and aggressive on the boards and will kick the ball out quickly, allowing the guards to play with pace. Coulibaly can get down the floor himself and be a factor in transition on the wing or as a trailer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2683752"],"_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-69fc8c2303e85"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I'm really looking forward to seeing Woodard go to work this weekend. He has good positional height and has the ability to shoot and play over the top. Woodard could really catch some eyes and have a breakout weekend in Dearborn Heights.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2571856"],"_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-69fc8c2303eea"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Long will be playing with the Cincy Reapers at the Mitten State Mash. He's a true post player and relishes the role. Long isn't afraid to try to dominate near and under the rim. He's a highly efficient offensive player and a true 2 way threat.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2495267"],"_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-69fc8c2303f4a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Barnes is a wing talent that I'm looking forward to watching with the Rising Sunz. I've watched a ton of film on the young man and am looking forward to really scouting his game. Barnes has the look of an athletic playmaking wing that can attack a block in transition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2831669"],"_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-69fde1bb5560f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I saw Hovis play a couple weeks ago at Rumble In The Rapids and he's on my list to see again this weekend. Hovis really works well off the free throw line and his 2 dribble drive when he turned and faced was almost unstoppable. Hovis looks like he has the ability to be a versatile forward as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

We're getting ready for the 17u division to start at the Prep Hoops Circuit's Mitten State Mash. As we continue to preview the event, we're going to take a look at some players on the rosters that are 6-4 and taller.
