<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Nike Elite Youth Basketball League completed their regular season in Las Vegas this weekend with hundreds college coaches on the sidelines evaluating some of the country's top prospects. Here is a look at some of the rising senior prosepcts from Virginia that stood out during Thursday and Friday's action.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1588134"],"_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-6a54f3ee76829"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The dynamic guard for [program_tooltip program_id='2226248' first='Boo' last='Williams'] continued his strong offseason averaging 17 points per game in Las Vegas. McGlone is a strong, athletic, attacking guard who is very difficult for defenders to keep out of the paint. He can create his own offense off the dribble and is a capable scorer from almost anywhere on the floor. The rising senior is a tough and willing on-ball defender who can cause disruption at that end of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2353544"],"_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-6a54f3ee7687f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dixon made his first appearances of the season in the EYBL in Las Vegas and showed why he is one of the DMV's top perimeter prospects. The Bishop O'Connell product is a scoring guard who has a very good command of the basketball and a high basketball IQ. He is a three level scorer who is capable of creating offensive opportunities for himself or others. Dixon plays with toughness and confidence and should continue to see his recruiting stock rise over the remainder of the summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2194710"],"_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-6a54f3ee768c4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Playing on a Team Takeover that includes a few of the nation's top backcourt prospects, Mitchell always seems to find a way to impact the game. A proven shot maker and scorer, the PVI product impressed this weekend with his ability to get to the rim, finish through contact and be a connector at the offense end. He was a very productive rebounder and gave maximum effort defensively in addition to being a timely scorer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2353633"],"_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-6a54f3ee768f5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mena is a unique frontcourt prospect who was effective pulling one of the nation's top shot blockers way from the rim in Thursday's Team Melo win over Nightrydas Elite. He stretches the floor with his shot making ability and is a major threat in pick and pop situations. The rising senior has a high basketball IQ, is a good passer and his conditioning and agility continue to improve.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2470583"],"_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-6a54f3ee76925"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the circuit's top shot makers, Barnhart scored 13 points in a narrow loss to AOT on Friday. A high academic prospect, the rising senior has proven to be not just a perimeter shooter but a threat to score at all three levels. He can attack the rim off the dirbble and is a better than average athlete. Barnhart moves well without the ball in his hands and has a high basketball IQ. Expect college coaches in search of perimeter scoring to be in pursuit of this 2027 prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
