<p>Qualaeb Ross - Jackets Elite - Qualaeb Ross was easily one of the more shifty guards that I saw on Sunday. He has his spin move down to a T, and utilized it more than a few times to skirt around defenders. Wowing both his own teammates and the crowd. In addition to his deceptiveness, he played with intensity and it was evident that he is a very assertive player. While his squad didn't grab the win, he impressed throughout and he'll he a prospect worth monitoring in the coming months.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2971553' first='Kendall' last='Morris'] - Glory Road - [player_tooltip player_id='2971553' first='Kendall' last='Morris'] was a slasher for his team a couple of Sundays ago. Using his acceleration skills and instincts to find the holes in the defense. Once he got in the paint, he located the rim and made a variety of difficult finishes. He also got to the charity stripe often, where he padded his stats even more. Morris made some quality dump off passes as well, and I liked how he kept his foot on the gas all game long. On the other end of the court, he made deflections and came up with steals. It was a solid showing from the athletic guard. </p>

<p>Demirr Anderson - Dreaam - Demirr Anderson went on a 8-0 personal run for Dreaam in the game that I watched on Sunday (5/24). He found different ways to get to the hoop, and used nice touch from there to score. He also had a few easy buckets in transition by being in the right place at the right time. Defensively, he's very active and doesn't stop moving. Making him a tough opponent to gain ground on. <br></p>

<p>Jacob Kulacz - Cannons - Jacob Kulacz was one of standout players for the Cannons thanks to his shooting. He connected on a couple of shots from the perimeter, and had a layup or two as well. Beyond his scoring, he was unselfish with the ball and dished out passes when he's teammates were open in the corners or in near the basket. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='3019292' first='J'kari' last='Crawford'] (pictured) - DRVN - [player_tooltip player_id='3019292' first='J'kari' last='Crawford'] was both a scorer and a distributor for DRVN at the Prep Hoops Great Lake Finals. He utilizes crafty maneuvers to get in the paint, and converts on tough finishes. One of his top highlights was a play where he fell to the ground, still secured the board, and then dished it to a forward on the block for an easy 2 (while still seated on the ground). It was impressive to watch and definitely a high IQ play. Defensively, he uses his lateral quickness and active hands to bother his matchup. And doesn't give them much room to operate.</p>
