AOG: AZ Memorial Day Classic 6th Team

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>On Saturday May 23rd I watched 10 games with 12 different 17U teams and eight 16U teams.&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>I made 6 All-Tourney Teams for the teams I viewed</strong>.</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Here is the 6th Team</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3350560' first='Caius' last='Cook'] Basha ([program_tooltip program_id='3141187' first='Golden' last='Gators'] 16)</strong><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A long and lean two-way wing is great in space to defend and will get downhill to score. He can rip thru to the basket and brings energy on the glass. He is also a sneaky good passer and once he starts filling in, he will be even tougher to handle.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3649299' first='Clayton' last='Cook'] Basha ([program_tooltip program_id='3141187' first='Golden' last='Gators'] 16)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The son of Brian Cook (Univ of Illinois/NBA) is a long face-up forward that is an incoming freshmen (little brother of Caius). He will score it from mid to the three point line with advanced skill for his age combined with size and length and will score with put backs and tip-ins showing a motor.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3649336' first='Jamari' last='Creagh'] Campo Verde (AZ Premier 16)</strong><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A super fast combo guard who runs the floor better then most. He can split defenders and jet past his initial defender and get to the rack or use the floater game. He has quick hands and feet on defense to pester his opponents and brings real energy to the court .&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3649312' first='Tim' last='Gammage'] St. Mary's ([program_tooltip program_id='3141187' first='Golden' last='Gators'] 16)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A long power forward is an impressive incoming freshmen. He is a strong two handed rebounder and moves well from end to end. He can take the ball off the glass and go coast to coast. He can occasionally step out and hit the three and rip thru and score it off the glass. He may be a year away but he will be known sooner rather then later.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3649330' first='Aren' last='Osyczka'] Sequoia National (NDO Elite 16)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An undersized combo guard plays smartly off of the pick and roll game and will find the roller. His best skill is his middy pull-up. He often uses it over and over and it is very polished. He can hit the three and can get to the basket. His brother was around six foot-six and if he makes the leap up with his height, he will be even harder to defend.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3649346' first='Hunter' last='Walrath'] AZ College Prep (AZ Premier 16) (Pictured)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An undersized power forward who will take contact inside with and-1's with his aggressive nature on the glass and score with offensive rebound put backs. He will also score with hook shots and stays active on the glass and always seems to fight for position and corral the ball off the glass out working his opponent.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3649323' first='Dylan' last='Wood'] Sequoia National (NDO Elite 16)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An undersized point is very cerebral and he can score the ball and handle heavy ball pressure. He can shoot it from the perimeter and then turn the corner on his defender and get downhill to the basket and plays with confidence.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
