<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We're a couple months into AAU season and after the most recent Prep Hoops Centennial State Cup, a number of players are starting to stand out with their play so far this summer. From breakout performances to consistent production against top competition, these hoopers are making coaches, scouts and other players take notice every time they step on the floor. Stock is rising, confidence is growing and these are the names that continue to build momentum heading deeper into the summer circuit.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2467733"],"_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-6a021ba2c241a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Spears continues to show just how much his game is growing, and he's becoming a player that impacts winning in every way possible. His facilitating has always been a strong suit and now he's impacting the game in every facet. He's playing with confidence, especially with the ball in his hands and is doing a great job creating space and getting to his spots in the midrange. He's finishing stronger around the basket while still knocking down the three at a high level. On the defensive end he competes hard, stays in front of his man, and makes things difficult all game long. The confidence, toughness and all around production are standing out more each weekend, and Spears is quickly becoming a major stock riser this summer</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3594512"],"_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-6a021ba2c245a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Markus just knows how to play the game. Smart with the ball, makes the right reads and always seems to know where teammates are going to be before it happens. He keeps the offense moving and when he's off the ball, he's still active and making winning plays. On defense he's just as locked in, jumping passing lanes, creating steals and making things tough on opponents. His feel for the game really stands out every time he's on the floor. Markus continues to boost his stock with his toughness, IQ and all around impact, and he's definitely a player to keep an eye on heading into the rest of the summer circuit</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2827083"],"_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-6a021ba2c247c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Green brings great energy every time he steps on the court and loves to push the pace. He plays fast, attacks downhill hard and puts pressure on defenses with his speed and aggressiveness. Once he gets moving he's tough to stay in front of and continues to show growth as a scorer. Whether it's getting to the rim, finishing in transition, or creating offense off the bounce, his confidence is continuing to rise. Green's ability to impact the game with tempo and pressure makes him an exciting player to watch, and he's showing signs of becoming an even bigger offensive threat moving forward this summer</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3579221"],"_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-6a021c33a87f8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Willis played with great urgency and control, does an excellent job keeping the offense moving. He reads the defense well, makes smart decisions with the ball and consistently puts teammates in good spots to succeed. His ability to facilitate and keep the pace flowing really stood out, especially under pressure. Willis brings a steady presence at the guard spot while still playing with energy and confidence. The way he controls the floor and makes winning plays continues to make him a valuable piece, and he's showing more and more why he's a player to keep watching this summer</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3620334"],"_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-6a021c33a88a2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sanchez made his impact felt with his activity and ability to turn defense into offense. He was active in the passing lanes, came up with steals and immediately pushed the pace in transition. Once he got out in the open floor, he finished plays with confidence and energy. His quickness and instincts helped create easy scoring opportunities, and he stayed aggressive throughout the games. Sanchez's ability to make hustle plays and capitalize in transition gave his team a spark and continues to show why he's a player that can change momentum in a hurry</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
