<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>High school and college basketball team camps start to take center stage this week. Here are four players making headlines this week.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2389965' first='Koa' last='Rockwell']-Combo Guard-Pulaski Academy-6'6” 2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2389965' first='Koa' last='Rockwell'] is a versatile prospect who has the ability to guard multiple positions on the floor. He is a tough defender who gets his hands in the passing lanes and forces turnovers. Meanwhile, on the offensive end of the floor, Rockwell can drive through the paint and finish above the rim. He also has the range to knock down jumpers from all three levels of the floor. Rockwell and the Bruins had a solid performance at the Harding University team camp earlier in the week.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2849921' first='Levi' last='Hammond']-Combo Guard-Hamburg-6'3” 2029</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Hamburg guard can hit the deep three-point jumper with impressive consistency. He has the ability to use the dribble to get into the paint and finish around the rim. Hammond is capable of hitting from all three levels of the floor. He is a worker on both ends of the floor. Hammond forces turnovers and can turn defense into offense in the blink of an eye. Hammond is off to an impressive start to the summer and is a player to watch out for over the next few months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2389941' first='Kellen' last='Cash']-Small Forward/Shooting Guard-Prairie Grove-6'4” 2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2389941' first='Kellen' last='Cash'] has tremendous versatility on both ends of the floor. He does a great job of handling the basketball. Cash sees the floor well and distributes the ball to his teammates. Cash is a tough defender who can snag rebounds and force turnovers from anywhere on the floor. The Prairie Grove forward is setting the stage for what has the potential to be a big senior season. Cash is a player to watch out for over the next few months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1893319' first='Vatan' last='Paydak']-Point Guard-Pulaski Academy-6'5” 2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Pulaski Academy Bruins are blessed with having two talented backcourt prospects in Paydak and Rockwell. Paydak does a great job of seeing the floor and making the extra pass to the open shooter. Meanwhile, Paydak can finish around the rim or drain the deep three-point jumper. The Pulaski Academy does a great job of staying active on both ends of the floor. He is a prospect to watch out for over the summer for the Bruins.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
