<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>June 12-14 I attended the prestigious&nbsp;<strong>Section-7</strong>&nbsp;located at the Arizona Athletic Grounds in Mesa and June 26-28 I attended the inaugural&nbsp;<strong>Nevada Live Invitational&nbsp;</strong>at the Las Vegas Basketball Center.

He loves getting downhill with his grown man frame and he finds ways with his handle to get to his spots. He rebounds the ball well with his strong hands and gains positioning.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2107084' first='Adam' last='Medina'] Gilbert</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A highly skilled power forward who can play from inside and out.

He is also an incredible passer with next level timing. He has nice hands to catch tough passes to score it inside the paint.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='3665122' first='Obatayo' last='Adigun'] St. Mary's&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A strong framed power forward is an incoming freshmen with an already nice base to work with. He has good size and skill. He can work inside with decent post footwork but likes to face-up and shoot it from the three. He rebounds well and runs the floor.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2337274' first='Brig' last='Bowden'] Mesa&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The big man for the Jackrabbits is highly skilled and gaining confidence with more touches. He will score with rip thrus to the basket, fall aways from mid-range and keeps the ball high inside to score it in traffic. He will also score with offensive rebound put backs.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1555179' first='Darius' last='Wabbington'] Sunnyslope</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Once again the best passer in America for his positon. He was literally playing PG most of the weekend with the absence of Prescott. He has elite court vision and timing on his passes. He scores it everyway with advanced post footwork, threes, mid-range jumpers, step thrus, Dirk moves, pick and pop jumpers, right hand hook shots, tip-dunks and mid-range fall aways.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2457854' first='Grant' last='Budd'] Pinnacle&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A long and taller power forward who is showing more fight in the paint. He is rebounding better then he did a year ago and he will hold his ground in the middle. He will block a shot, runs the floor and set picks for his guards&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2126446' first='Mustafa' last='Mohamed'] AZ Compass Prep</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An athletic power forward who is very fluid in the open court. He covers a lot of ground on defense and is a great rebounder. He is a high level finisher with powerful dunks and uses quick post moves and will rip thru and occasionally step out and shoot it.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
