<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In this article I feature both point guards and combo guards who can run the show and get buckets. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3663958"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a6d6586968ea"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='3663958' first='Kayden' last='Cuaresma'] is a sniper from long range and will connect on shots from well beyond the arc. He has a quick trigger and a smooth shooting stroke that allow him to get the job done. And he is more than capable of burying a couple of triples in a row. Although he isn't the tallest player on the court, he can still make a significant impact out there. Keep a look out for him this fall/winter. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3663907"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a6d658696942"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='3663907' first='Kaemon' last='Thomas'] joins the Liberty Minutemen where he should see PT as a freshman. He is a deceptive ball handler that protects the rock well when navigating traffic. And he waits for the right moment to strike or to hit his teammates. He also makes his presence felt on defense. Putting the clamps on his matchup with his active hands and agile footwork. Considering his attributes and competitiveness, he'll be a 2030 guard that will likely turn heads on a regular basis. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3663896"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a6d65869698a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='3663896' first='Draycen' last='Reyes'] caught my attention just a couple of months ago during Summer League. He is a threat to score at all times on offense thanks to his attacking skills and smooth shooting stroke. His ability to score from anywhere gives his defenders headaches, and he'll burn them if they overplay him. On defense, Reyes works hard to cover his man and he can poke the ball away when there's an opportunity. All in all, he'll be a 2030 that is definitely worth monitoring. And he'll very likely see his name in the official rankings once they're released. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3663939"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a6d6586969d7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='3663939' first='Tyshawn' last='Brown'] is a shifty PG that can skirt around defenders to get all the way to the hoop. He gets to his jumper as well, and can stop with real suddenness to shake his matchup. Brown also feeds his forwards if they have good position, and I expect him to become an even stronger passer as his development continues. Defensively, he stays on the move and he can be disruptive. While the Crusaders have a few other guards in the mix, he should be a playmaker for them this upcoming season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3681114"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a6d658696a1b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It appears as though [player_tooltip player_id='3681114' first='EJ' last='Douglas'] will be heading to Mater East Academy. He is a crafty floor general that utilizes his instincts and IQ to get to his spots. Letting it go with confidence when he has a clean look. He also gets his teammates involved and knows to feed his fellow shooters if they're left unmarked. In addition to his reliable play on offense, he has some lateral quickness to him that he uses to his advantage on defense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
