Mayhem in the Plex: 15U Elite Guards

<p>It was a full two days of action in Fort Worth for PrepHoops’ Mayhem in the Plex tournament. The 15U division at There were loads of standouts that will be highlighted in the upcoming days for defending, shooting, playmaking, and upside. For now, let’s take a deeper look at a few guards that were cream of the crop and stood-out in multiple ways. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Parker Overstreet, 5’10 Guard, Victory Academy</strong></p> <p>Possibly the top floor general in attendance, Overstreet got the weekend started right by quarterbacking Victory Academy to an opening win. When attacking off turnovers or rebounds (which he often high points), the dynamic guard always has eyes down court looking for his teammates for easy points. He also can finish himself in transition thanks to great athleticism and the youngster nearly threw one down after a steal. In the half court he still has good playmaking tendencies, with good vision and velocity on his passes. Overtstreet also has "get by your man" type burst that he makes good use of when he gets downhill. While a smaller guard, his combination of athleticism, basketball IQ and tenacity makes him a very intriguing young prospect.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Parker Evanson, 6’2 Valor/Union 2025 Black</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the better all around scorers in attendance, Evanson is a plus shooter from beyond the arc. He excels as a catch and shoot option but has a complete scoring package. When attacking off the dribble he plays at his own pace, using skill and strength to create space to hit mid range pulls up or go finish at the rim in traffic. It’s not always the loudest points, but Evanson is the type of scoring guard that seemingly can be penciled in for at least 15 points, that are efficient as well. </span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Markos Fuller, 6’1 Guard, Tarrant Elite 2025</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Skilled lead guard play is at a premium in modern basketball, and the shifty Fuller fits that need. In a Saturday afternoon viewing he was a big time playmaker. He lived off the bounce as a creator and when he got into paint he was looking for openings for his teammates, which led to him racking up the assists and even hockey assists. An impressive aspect of his passing was he already knows how to misdirect with eyes (especially in transition) to confuse defenders and open up his teammates for good looks. While Fuller often looked to create, he did hit a couple of threes, with great form where he finishes high with his follow thru.</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Jakobe Cavett, 5’10 Guard, Mississippi Wildcats 2025</strong><br /> An impressive aspect of Cavett’s game was how he grew into it and took over when needed. He first stood out as a high energy defender and a good rebounder for a smaller guard. He also made a few plays in transition and as a patient creator for his teammates in the halfcourt. To end the first half, Cavett drilled a stepback three and then carried that scoring purpose into the second half. He mixed in more threes to go along with his playmaking and drives to the rim. The 2025 standout has good poise and understanding of the game, as the ball rarely stuck and he kept his team running well.</p>
