<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In this article I highlight 6 more prospects that made noteworthy plays for their teams at the Prep Hoops Great Lakes Finals on Saturday (5/23).</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='3431123' first='Armani' last='Love'] - [program_tooltip program_id='2075258' first='ABC' last='Young Lions'] - [player_tooltip player_id='3431123' first='Armani' last='Love'] was all over the glass for [program_tooltip program_id='2075258' first='ABC' last='Young Lions'] at the Prep Hoops Great Lakes Finals. He uses his vertical, instincts, and scrappiness to get the job, And is capable of scoring second chance points as well. Look for him to continue to be a high impact player for them. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2386230' first='Gage' last='Beggs'] – [program_tooltip program_id='2076027' first='Wisconsin' last='Blizzard'] – [player_tooltip player_id='2386230' first='Gage' last='Beggs'] does a little bit of everything to help his team win. He is a capable shooter who can knock down triples when left unmarked, and he makes the extra pass when a forward or shooter has the cleaner look. On the other end of the court, he doesn't give his man much room to operate and will swipe or poke the ball away when the opportunity presents itself. <br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2386283' first='Sam' last='Voskuil'] – [program_tooltip program_id='2076027' first='Wisconsin' last='Blizzard'] – [player_tooltip player_id='2386283' first='Sam' last='Voskuil'] is a versatile forward who plays team basketball. On offense, he's tasked with doing some of the dirty work on the inside while also scoring when he has a size advantage against his opponent. He's active on defense as well and wisely uses his length to contest and alter shots. All in all, I liked what I saw from him, and he doesn't force much offensively.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Patrick Ryan - Breakaway - Patrick Ryan scored timely buckets for Breakaway at the Great Lakes Finals. He utilizes his deceleration skills to make jump stops, and shows patience if forwards try to contest his shots. He also gets after it on the defensive end, blocking shots and coming down with rebounds. It was a solid all around effort from him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Killian O'Flaherty - Full Package - Killian O'Flaherty has a dynamic skillset and the size to get to the cup on offense. I watched him drive baseline a couple of times, and liked the pace that he attacked with. He also has a high release point and can shoot over his matchup. In addition to his scoring, he stays in good position on defense and gathers a good amount of boards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jason Stratt – Breakaway – Jason Stratt is a floor spacer for Breakaway's 16U squad. He has a nice jumper in his bag and will cash in on opportunities from the perimeter. Defensively, his reach helps make his matchup uncomfortable, and he provides help-side defense when needed.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
