Kannon Axdahl - Axdahl is a six-foot-six-inch 2030 forward/wing from Eastview and plays for D1 Minnesota 3SSB 2030. Axdahl has the ability to play on the perimeter offensively and at the rim defensively, an incredible combo for any basketball team. Axdahl showed off all types of scoring ability Saturday and Sunday leading D1 Minnesota to another Prep Hoops Next Championship. Axdahl took the ball off rebounds and went up the court like a guard going from rim to rim for lay-up scores. He handled the ball in the half-court on the perimeter, got into space and made short range shots displaying good touch at the rim. Axdahl defensively closes off passing lanes and turns shooters away with blocks.   Henry Hanzel - Hanzel is a six-foot-six-inch 2030 wing from Jordan and plays with D1 Minnesota 3SSB. Hanzel is long and agile and is a perimeter oriented player who can use his length and size around the rim to his advantage. Hanzel's length allows him to cover a good amount of space defensively.   Carter Neutz - Neutz is a six-foot-three-inch 2030 forward for D1 Minnesota Gold and from Annandale. Neutz does well getting up and down the floor, is a high-energy and productive rebounder on offense and defense, and can score the ball from the perimeter as a driver.   Jerrell Washington - Washington is a six-foot-four-inch 2030 forward from Bloomington Kennedy and D1 Minnesota 3SSB. Washington has good traits athletically, size, quickness and speed at this level that enables him to compete at the Varsity level. Washington has shown ability to stretch the floor and hit outside shots and does very well getting down the floor in transition.   Joshua Crawford - Crawford is a six-foot-five-inch 2030 forward from Maple Grove and plays with Dream Ballers 14U-2. Crawford was very active for Dream Ballers against Showtime Elite on the glass, displayed solid touch on a few finishes and I see potential for him going forward as he adds strength to his good size frame.   Jonathan Berry II - Berry is a six-foot-one-inch forward that plays for MN Falcons (Phelps). Berry is super active and has a great 2nd jump that is much quicker than most of the players I saw him compete against. Berry's athletic ability enables him to play just about anywhere defensively and he's shown a good ability to finish while going to the rim.   Blake Blumer - Blumer is a six-foot-two-inch 2030 wing from Apple Valley and MN Falcons (Phelps). Blumer shows inside out ability offensively able to make perimeter shots and drive to the hoop from the perimeter for scores. Blumer size gives him a solid advantage on the perimeter going to the basket and his ball handling enables him to make plays.   Will Serakos - Serakos is a six-foot-one-inch 2030 wing from Andover that plays with Minnesota Fury Miller. Serakos has shot the ball incredibly well for Fury Miller hitting on a super high percentage of his 3-pointers.
