Great Lakes Closer: C/O '30 Standout Performers

The Great Lakes Closer proved to be a battleground for some of the best talent in the class of 2030 in the state of Michigan. These standout performers separated themselves in a variety of ways, each bringing something different to the table. High-level offensive production, shot creation, and the ability to control pace were among the qualities that stood out most.    Noah handles intense ball pressure relatively well. He generates plenty of good looks but can't leave too many unconverted. Seals was the pulse of his team and fought hard to keep them competitive.     Harry slows the game down mentally, allowing him to play at his own pace. Lawson plays well off the ball screen and has a solid stroke from three. On the other end, he's able and more than willing to play effective on-ball defense.     Conley's smooth handle creates looks from multiple levels. With a quick but not rushed release, he is able to consistently convert on his step-back jumper. Blake plays with tremendous pace, slowing it down, speeding it up, jabbing, and looking off defenders.     Kevyn controls the pace of a high-energy offense. He's patient and always looking for the best scoring opportunity on the floor. Stringer often looks for the pass up the floor, the cross-court pass, or the drive-and-kick option.     Jalen thrives in a transition-heavy offensive system. He makes the correct reads in the fast break, sometimes opting for the drop-off and other times keeping it himself. Whitney showcased the ability to draw contact and finish with his shoulder in the chest of the defender.
