His ability to score off the dribble and off the catch was on display in their matchup with KHS. He has a quick first step that he used to blow by defenders as well as a nice number of countermoves to keep defenders guessing throughout the night.
From start to finish of their matchup with MHS, he was active in the paint, finishing with a game high of 20 Points while pulling down a high number of rebounds. What we appreciated most about his performance was the fact that he didn’t settle for the outside shot too often. Instead, he attacked the basket and used his strength to score and draw fouls.
His numbers from their matchup with WOGCA will not necessarily wow you but it does not take much time of watching him to see why he’s such of a highly touted prospect. He has the size at 6’8 with a Guard skillset that makes him very intriguing to coaches on the next level. Defensively he has the versatility to guard quite a few positions and his upside to be dominant on both ends of the floor is clear.
Throughout both days of the event, he showed some flashes of what he brings to the table with his scoring ability. He’s a player that can get hot from downtown in a hurry and doesn’t think twice about letting shots fly from anywhere on the court.
Highlights
Provided a nice second scoring option for his team on both days, knocking down shots at a nice level from three-point land. He doesn’t need much time or space to get his shot off and has shooting range that stretches beyond the college three-point line.
Highlights
One of the unsung heroes in their matchup with WOGCA, Collin is another player that made some big time plays down the stretch to help lead his team a win. Whether it was a timely bucket, a big time rebound, a defensive stop or diving for a loose ball to secure a possession, he simply made the winning plays that were needed.

Colby White
Another player to keep a close eye on over the next few years. This young man can flat out score the ball from multiple levels and plays the game with a confidence that you have to love from such a young player.
Made a huge impact on the game with his scoring and defense on Friday night as they matched up with nationally ranked STAB. He used his speed and athletic ability to attack the paint for buckets but also displayed some midrange scoring ability, finishing with 20 Points on the day.
