Even smaller guards had a difficult time keeping him in front as he was constantly in attack mode and getting into the lane. He's an unselfish player who was setting his teammates up with open looks in a variety of different spots. Antwan can make the kickout pass on the move to one of his shooters, or also dump it off to his big at the last second when a help defender slides over. Impressive showing in the game I watched.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1519571"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Devin was perhaps the most entertaining player to watch on Sunday. He's such an explosive athlete with no shortage of confidence in his ability to score the basketball. Davenport was throwing down some impressive dunks not only in transition but also in the half-court as he was able to get into the lane off the dribble and elevate off one or two feet. When he wasn't playing above the rim, Davenport showed he can catch fire from three and knock down shots off the dribble. Had a sequence in which he drained 3-4 triples in quick succession. Athletic guard to know out of Milwaukee Lutheran.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1289113"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Kaleb started off his high school career as more of a slasher who used his quickness and strength to get to the rim and finish against size. This past weekend he looked a lot more comfortable on the perimeter as a shooter though as he showcased his expanded game. Not only was he knocking down threes but he was able to get to his spots in the mid-range and stop on a dime to hit a couple of pull-up jumpers. Kaleb averaged 8.6 ppg last season for The Prairie School, and will be a key player for them this winter.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1151841"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"You never know what Mason's going to do when the ball is in his hands. He brings some extra flair to the floor as he has a deep bag of moves that he can get into off the dribble, and has a knack for delivering a flashy pass to set up his teammates. All day long Kleinsmith utilized his quickness and handles to get to the rack to finish or facilitate. Not sure I saw a quicker player all weekend as he was able to pick up steals and turn them into two points immediately on the other end. Really crafty finisher around the rim as well who has no fear going up against taller players.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1598970"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Jacob is an extremely versatile player. He has a very strong frame for a guard which also allows him to defend taller players when needed, and on the offensive end he's an excellent passer but can also get his own buckets when needed. On Sunday the part of his game that really shined was his shooting ability. He was playing off the ball a lot just floating into space to give his other guards an easy target beyond the arc. When he got a clean look Jacob rarely missed as he has a smooth and consistent release on his shot. Rebounds the ball well as a guard and isn't afraid to play physical.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["1289066"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Dejuan looks a little taller and a little more explosive than he did as a sophomore. The Kenosha Tremper prospect was one of the top shooters of the day, as he possesses a smooth release with his left hand. Graise has a nice feel for the game and plays with good change of pace to maneuver off of ball screens and make plays off the dribble. Never looks too sped up and finds ways to get into gaps in the defense to make plays. Defensively his long arms can cause disruptions on the ball as well as get up in the passing lane to make things difficult.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["1142122"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"There's just a sense of calmness to Michael's game. Everything looks easy to him as he looks like he sees the game in slow motion. You'll never see Michael get sped up, and even when he doesn't look like he's moving quick he can get to his spots to score. When McNabb attacks he covers so much ground with each stride, and I think it catches defenders off guard with how much ground he covers with his last step before finishing. Excellent body control around the basket while also being able to step out beyond the arc and knock down threes at a high percentage.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":7,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"edit"} /-->
