Adidas 3SSB Bryan: Takeover Prospects Out West Dominate

Adidas 3SSB Bryan was one of my premier tournaments to attend this grassroots season and many new prospects emerged on my radar. This article will talk about prospects who impressed me that hail from the western United States and put on an impressive show on the Adidas 3SSB session III. Let's dive further into examining the skillsets of these players and their statistics.    This tournament had Wabbington playing every single position possible for the Compton Magic 17u as they continued to rack up wins and prove their case for a top team in 3SSB this summer. I think an accurate comparison for Darius would be Jokic as he was the ultimate dime dropper, bringing the ball up the court, and shooting from deep. He scored from all levels at a high rate, played insane defense on every opponent, and ran the point guard through the center role on offense. He already boasts an insane top 6 list of high division 1 offers and it's easy to see why he is one of the top players in the country with the stats he continually puts up.     [player_tooltip player_id='2436255' first='Jayden' last='Yim'] started the Saturday off on fire, going five of six from deep range in his first game of the day. He moves quickly and swiftly without the ball, but he displayed that he can also be a point guard under pressure or help break a full court press if needed. Jayden is capable of going on a huge run from range if left open and he caught the defense lacking multiple times in this game. Yim utilizes quick hands and speedy lateral quickness on the perimeter guarding opposing ballhandlers and often notches several steals for the Compton Magic.     Nick Giarrusso's court vision and awareness from the point guard slot helped solidify California Gold's win on Saturday afternoon in Bryan. One of those lead guards who always makes the right pass, Nick is effective off the pick and roll or the drive and dish. He can shoot off the dribble if left in isolation with his defender in the midrange or drive past a smaller opponent to the lane. His speed in transition help open up opportunities for his teammates and California Gold is definitely lucky to have him running the one slot for them.     Emmanuel showcases athleticism and key versatility for Team Lillard 17u on both ends. He flies high above the rim to limit opponents chances on offense and pushes the pace on fastbreaks. He uses a long wingspan to block shots, disrupt offensive flow, and drive past defenders to the lane. He finishes with authority around the rim and plays aggressive defense, guarding any position 1 through 5. He has already stacked up multiple high major offers, look for him to garner more going into the school year.     Hahn was one of my more intriguing prospects this weekend due to his size at the guard spot and his ability to space the floor. His most efficient shooting from deep came off the catch and shoot spot up from three point, but he can create for himself in isolation against mismatches as well. He is effective passing from the perimeter and is very unselfish with the ball in his hands. Physical frame allows him to be aggressive in the post battling for rebounds, and he often comes away with effective second chance buckets.
