A high level athlete with size, length and a high baskteball IQ, Hayes continues to show improvement as a shot maker and a playmaker. He can score at all three levels and is impressive as a shot creator. In addition to his offensive skill set, Hayes has the ability to provide plenty of value on the defensive end as well. Expect Hayes' recruiting stock to continue to rise.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2210997"],"_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-6a39852b2e335"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Playing without 2027 star Asa Montgomery who is playing with USA Basketball's U17 team, Jatta led the way for Hillgrove at LakePoint. The rising junior is an aggressive, high scoring combo guard who can create his own offense off the dribble. He is tough to keep out of the paint, is an above average athlete who can finish above the rim and is consistently improving his perimeter shot making.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2467575"],"_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-6a39852b2e374"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the prospects with the highest upside in the 2028 recruiting class, Bailey averaged 16 points per game for the Spartans over the weekend. He is a combo forward with good length who has versatility at the offensive end of the floor. Bailey can score on the block, in the midrange and can extend his range to make open shots from beyong the arc. The rising junior runs the floor well, plays with a high motor and is a very productive reboudner at both ends.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2891386"],"_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-6a39852b2e3ac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">On another talented Wheeler team, Madden impressed on Saturday for the Wildcats. Madden can score in a variety of ways and and create his own offense off the bounce. He is very difficult for defenders to stay in front of and is a more than capable shot maker from beyond the arc. He has the ability to be a playmaker as well and displayed a high basketball IQ when making decisions with the ball in his hands. The rising junior should continue his move up the 2028 rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2467350"],"_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-6a39852b2e3e3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top scorers in the 2028 class, Maurice continued his impressive offseason averaging nearly 30 points per game for Woodstock over the weekend. He is a strong, attacking, ball handling guard who is very tough for defenders to keep out of the paint. The rising junior has proved to be a more than capable perimeter shot maker and is certainly a prospect that college coaches need to evaluate this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
