<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are seven wing prospects that showed out at Prep Hoops The Tune Up: Minnesota in Shakopee! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2126467"],"_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-6a4d257782cb1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fresh off of his commitment to Wisconsin, Babou and [program_tooltip program_id='2075431' first='D1' last='Minnesota'] dominated in their two games on Thursday night. He makes the game look so easy, as a good portion of his scores came on transition chances, being able to make a full speed move and finish under control. His shots were falling from the perimeter, as his jump shot continues to get better and better. Then, Ann brings so much versatility defensively, being able to switch onto any kind of player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2845899"],"_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-6a4d257782d54"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I have been so impressed each time I have watched Jack this club season, as he has looked like one of the top shooters in the state. I was only able to catch the second half of [program_tooltip program_id='2075674' first='Minnesota' last='Heat'] Morgan's first game of the weekend, as Jack drilled four threes in the first couple minutes of the half. He has a very quick shot and the size to be able to shoot over solid contests from defenders. I am expecting Gunderson to have a big senior season at East Ridge.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2126450"],"_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-6a4d257782dcd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gavin is one of the top offensive players in Minnesota and it was on display all weekend in Shakopee. He is such a polished prospect, being able to create and score at such an elite level. He was hitting on his shots from the outside, getting off the catch looks off in the blink of an eye. He looked good getting to pull-up jumpers in the mid-range and downhill drives for crafty finishes. The Northern Iowa commit has been one of the top 17U players this spring and summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2447075"],"_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-6a4d257782e3d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Markus was running with Forward Thinking this past weekend and had a well rounded performance in the one game I saw. He has a long 6'5” frame and was coming away with tons of rebounds on both ends of the floor. He was able to chase down an offensive rebound, then go up with a putback layup for an and-one. Markus did most of his work inside, but showed flashes of being an impact player on the perimeter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2126113"],"_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-6a4d257782eac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">AJ has picked up a few MIAC offers to start the summer, shining this spring and summer with Elevate Skills. He is a very versatile wing/forward prospect that can bring a ton of value, especially with his offensive skillset. He stands at 6'6” and has the size to battle inside versus opposing forwards, being able to defend and rebound well. Taban can also handle the ball, shoot from the perimeter, and facilitate at a high level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2396187"],"_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-6a4d257782f1c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kristian has next level physical tools that he can use to impact the game in a variety of ways. He has a built 6'4” frame and is a very explosive athlete. He is a great defender, being able to match up with big forwards or quicker guards on the perimeter. I saw him block a few shots and come away with some contested rebounds. Offensively, Ward is a great finisher around the basket, going up hard and strong each time.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2858361"],"_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-6a4d257782f8f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">John has been another prospect on this [program_tooltip program_id='2075674' first='Minnesota' last='Heat'] Morgan squad that has had a great spring and summer. He has a big 6'5” frame and is able to make a major impact inside with his rebounding, interior defense, and finishing at the rim. Omoyeni also showed he could step out and hit shots from the perimeter off the catch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
