Spanning three action-packed days from June 23rd to June 25th, the event took place at the prestigious State Farm Arena in Phoenix, AZ. Over 800 talented players from various high schools showcased their skills on the court, vying for the attention of hundreds of college coaches and scouts in attendance. The atmosphere was electric as the athletes gave their all, displaying their prowess in basketball and leaving spectators in awe. The event served as a prime platform for aspiring prospects to make a name for themselves and catch the attention of college recruiters. With an abundance of talent on display, Section 7 undoubtedly set the stage for a ton of prospects to shine bright. Several wing players put together solid performances. Here’s a look at the top wings from the event.
Victory tends to have a million fathers. Mater East took home their bracket crown, and Young deserves a lot of credit for contributing. He was extremely efficient. Knocking down corner threes, including a clutch one in the championship game. His shooting, defense and energy were more than enough for him to play a role in the birth a champion.
It’s been amazing watching Hutchinson transform down to a wing. He is a unique player that does a little of everything for Meadows. I was impressed with not only how they used him at the high post, but also how accurate he was with his passing. The Small Forward routinely made pinpoint passes to cutting teammates for easy baskets.
I’ve always thought of Rone as a transition star, now I have a better understanding of why. He plays hard on the defensive end, and he did a terrific job of jumping passing lanes. The active wing defender then showed off his super power, finishing once out on the break.
He was another player similar to Rone, who fed off transition opportunities. Roston was not only able to score when he was on the break, but the wing slasher did a good job attacking the basket in halfcourt situations.
When you look up wired to score, undoubtedly there’s a photo of Cunningham. The Shooting guard, effortless knocked down threes, got out in transition, and showed that he can win in 1 v 1 situations. If that wasn’t enough, he also managed to be effective on the defensive end, getting steals and converting them into points
Jackson was a monster for the Rattlers on both the defensive end, and the backboards. He used his long arms to grab a bunch of boards, and push the ball. Defensively he was effective at both the top of the Mojave press, as well as running down ballhandlers for backtips.
