Let's dive into them here!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3427287' first='Aiden' last='Henderson'] (Brother Rice)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Henderson is a quick guard that is coming off a breakout junior campaign for Brother Rice.&nbsp; Plays with a ton of speed and gets in the lane for soft touch finishes or dishing to shooters.&nbsp; Quality jumper himself as well!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Adam McBrearty (Brother Rice)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>McBrearty has been mostly a sharp shooter in his career.&nbsp; At RB we saw him play inside more as a four man with crafty finishes around the cup, hook shots, and soft touch finishes while rebounding pretty well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2125664' first='Malik' last='Mahmoud'] (Andrew)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Liked what this guard brought in the spring and he had another solid outing with his high school team.&nbsp; Sound shot maker off the catch and bounce from three, mid-range, and mixes in floaters.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2829613' first='Danny' last='Ruffin'] (Homewood Flossmoor)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ruffin is a strong bodied attacking guard that puts pressure on the rim.&nbsp; Like a running back hitting the hole with his burst consistently attacking the rack over and over.&nbsp; Gets out in transition s a finisher and has nice body control at the cup.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2409831' first='Elie' last='Ghattas'] (DePaul Prep)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Solid showing for the DePaul Prep 6'6” four man.&nbsp; Brings the Rams some size up front next to Johnson or giving him a rest.&nbsp; Solid rebounder and ran the floor hard for scores in transition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3430149' first='Matthew' last='Logue'] (New Trier)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>At 6'5” the small forward from New Trier brings positional size and a high-motor to the table.&nbsp; Scored on reverse layups, cuts off the ball, and was impactful defensively.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2532316' first='Chaden' last='Harvey'] (De La Salle)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Harvey has a strong frame as a wing that can put up points as a microwave scorer.&nbsp; Plays well through contact, is a solid shooter, and kicks to teammates for clean looks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2455389' first='Arthur' last='Abbey'] (Rock Island)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Abbey had a strong outing against Curie going up against their pair of tough junior guards.&nbsp; He helped his team get the W recording 23 points in the victory.&nbsp; Quick and compact lead guard that has a knack for finding creative ways to score with acrobatic layups along with pull up threes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3430124' first='MJ' last='Greene'] (Marist)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6'5” Marist wing is going to find a nice role for the defending 4A champs.&nbsp; The size plays well on both ends especially with his length defensively.&nbsp; Gets above the rim on lobs and on the offensive glass.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2948461' first='Kobe' last='Stevenson'] (Thornton)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lefty combo guard is at his best when he is able to get clean looks and the southpaw made a trio of them in the game we saw from deep.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3624181' first='Ty'ron' last='Holcomb'] (Rich Township)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Transferred over to Rich Township for his senior season this 6'5” 2027 post is a physical presence down low who finishes out of the dunker spot, runs the floor hard, and can block a shot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Gyles Agyeman (Plainfield East)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6'2” Plainfield East guard is a nice role player for his squad.&nbsp; Nifty finisher in the lane, rebounds well for a guard, and can hit a three on occasion.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3427306' first='Antwaun' last='Sims'] Jr (Thornwood)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sims goes 6'5” with a well built frame.&nbsp; What we liked about him was he rebounded very well in his area on both ends including several put backs.&nbsp; Kind of an enforcer on a perimeter oriented Thornwood team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3597839' first='Cyrow' last='Childs'] (Peoria Central)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Super bouncy four man from central Illinois that is so quick to the offensive glass for second chance points.&nbsp; Playing off his athleticism is the name of his game.&nbsp; Put backs and finishing out of the dunker spot are what he does!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
