<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2475408' first='Kyree' last='Harder'] <strong>Catalina Foothills</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<p>A decent sized combo guard is a natural scorer. He can score it from all three levels with crafty takes getting downhill with a nice handle and drilling jumpers with mid-range pull-ups off the dribble and threes off the catch or pull. He has some range and he can carry his team in stretches. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2412234' first='Landri' last='Pinckney'] <strong>La Joya (Pictured)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A leaner scoring point guard is extremely quick with the ball in his hands and wired to score. He is very fast in the open court and he will score with drives to the basket, jumpers from mid-range to the three point line and he can stop and pop and pull-up. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2282935' first='Parker' last='Counts'] <strong>Valley Vista</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A stronger framed combo guard handles a lot of the lead guard role and can make some plays for his teammates but he is best at putting points on the board with quick drives, threes off the catch and mid-range pull-ups. He has some athleticism to make tough finishes. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2786909' first='Brody' last='Ramirez'] <strong>Florence </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A scoring combo guard can play some on or off the ball. He will score it with quick drives to the basket and has some upper body strength to handle the contact and shoots it easily with mid-range pull-ups and threes off the catch. He gets trips to the FT line often. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2681054' first='Jude' last='Rose'] <strong>Mesa Mountain View</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A quick on quick scoring point guard has some nice court vision and a tighter handle. He can create his own offense with quick drives to the basket, middy pull-ups and threes off the catch or pull with range and a quicker trigger. He should have a big season for the Toros.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2674271' first='Travis' last='Dean'] <strong>Maryvale</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A stronger framed power forward is a natural scorer. He can work inside with decent post footwork with his softer hands and score with put backs but he is a shooter from the three point line. He shoots it best off the catch and loves the corners. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2733555' first='Noah' last='Corrigan'] <strong>NVCA</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A good sized guard or a wing forward is one of the teams scorers for the talented 2A team. He has a big IQ for the game and he will score it with threes off the catch, mid-range jumpers and he can create his own offense to get his shots off. He is in line for a big season. </p>
