Team 3 Evaluation: Wisconsin Sophomore ID Camp

Team three featured some quick guards, long-framed wings, and hustlers on both ends of the floor. Let's break down the 2029 prospects who attended the Wisconsin Sophomore ID Camp last weekend in Appleton!    Payne, who was representing Wisconsin Heights at the event, is a quick lead guard. Graeme played with great energy and knocked down some shots throughout the day. What stood out the most about the five-foot-seven prospect was his overall quickness and ability to space the floor.     Jordan has a good frame for his position and uses his feet effectively in the half court. The six-foot-two guard prospect was able to use his sweet footwork to convert at the rim consistently on Saturday over Labor Day Weekend. The most impressive finish Tjugum had was his decel finish in his second game of the day. Jordan, who attends Poynette High School, demonstrated his ability to read closeouts well and additionally use his shifty 1-2 crossover to freeze opposing defenders. Tjugum figures to be an important player for the Pumas in the upcoming season, after getting some playing time last season as a freshman.     Bowie has a wirey frame with long arms, but he has a very tight handle in transition and in the half court. Kellan, who attends Madison West, was able to use his ball handling to get to the rim and finish consistently Saturday. The six-foot-three combo guard off dribble penetration was able to set up his teammates, run rim to rim in transition, and rebounded well on both ends of the floor.     Wauters, who attends [program_tooltip program_id='2829078' first='West' last='De Pere'], spent Saturday afternoon hustling all over the floor on both offense and defense. Kamden sprinted hard up the sideline on a handful of occasions to get some easy layups directly at the rim. The five-foot-ten prospect has a strong frame which allowed him to showcase his strong defensive skills on the ball and in the passing lanes.     Ramminger impressed me with his offensive skill set throughout the Sophomore ID Camp in Appleton. A skill that is underrated for younger players is slowing the game down to make the right plays in decision making situations. In these situations, Luke seemed to make the right play just about every time, whether it was making a perfectly timed pass, finishing at the rim, or hitting shots off the bounce. Ramminger had a very productive freshman season at Kiel averaging over 11ppg, and will look to expand on that in his sophomore campaign as the Raiders graduated their top two scorers last season. With how Luke played last weekend, expect him to be one of the better players in the EWC next season.     Pittsley is a left-handed guard from Racine Case that has a little bit of shake in his ball handling. In the games I was able to watch, Karter was able to create space between him and his defender by relying on a nice side-step dribble to create his own shot. In addition to his ability to create space, Pittsley was an athletic rebounder on the defensive end and had some deflections in the 5 on 5 sessions.     Calvert, was undoubtedly the unofficial MVP of Team 3 at this event at the Champions' Center. Karti has grown a ton in his development offensively with his ability to hit the three point shot on catch and shoot opportunities, off the bounce, and out of reverse pivot moves. The six-foot-six wing was one of the best shooters in the gym all day. Karti's game features a lot of downhill moves as well as he is able to carve up opposing defenses due to his instincts with the ball and his strong upper body. Calvert can impact the game on the defensive end with his developed frame, and his willingness to get up and reject shots at the rim. The Catholic Memorial prospect, is one of top prospects in the 2029 class and has very projectable skills for the next level as he continues to grow and develop his game.     Horton came a long way from Superior High School last weekend, and made some solid plays on both ends of the floor making the trip worth the drive. Braydon has deep range from behind the arc, as I watched him drain a triple from way downtown in his last game. In this game as well, Horton was doubled in a ball screen and made a nice pass out of the double to find a cutting teammate for a bucket. On the defensive end, Braydon had some moments where he was able to lock up his defender individually.     Daniels was a late addition to the showcase, but came game ready playing with a lot of energy on the defensive end, and spacing the floor well offensively. Daniels' high motor on the defensive side of the ball, allowed him to generate deflections. On offense, Terrance was able to space the floor by knowing when to cut, and hitting a deep pull-up transition three.
