He continued this impressive play with Olentangy Berlin. An impressive shot maker and athlete from the guard position, Gamble has impressive burst and self-creation ability. Olentangy Berlin has an experienced group returning and could be a sleeper team in central Ohio this winter with Gamble, [player_tooltip player_id='1311189' first='Derek' last='Goodman'] and more shooters returning from last season. Expect regional small college programs to make Gamble a priority this winter.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1617859"],"_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":"Lewis had a big weekend at the NCAA Basketball Academy in Memphis, shining in the individual prospect showcase games. Lewis is a point guard with impressive pace and scoring ability, with a couple scoring explosions as a Junior. (Six games of 20+ points) His father, Ron Lewis is his high school coach and was a standout at Bowling Green and Ohio State before playing an overseas career. After a first team all OCC Junior season, expect Lewis to be one of the top senior guards in central Ohio this winter.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1225071"],"_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":"Another central Ohio guard standout, the lefty shooter Heiss had a big summer with Midwest Basketball Club Quinn. With good size at the combo guard position and able to play on or off the ball, Heiss has a lot of traits that will translate to the next level. After an honorable mention all-state Junior season, Heiss has seen his recruitment pick up with small college programs like Marietta and Denison.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1285243"],"_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":"DeBrosse had an impressive summer on the Prep Hoops Circuit as a shooter who you can't leave open from long distance. As a Junior DeBrosse averaged 9.7 PPG and and made 44 3-pointers. DeBrosse has also started to develop physically, adding some strength that will be crucial at the next level. Having already taken an official visit to Otterbein, expect more small college programs to get involved with DeBrosse this winter.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1368787"],"_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":"Saint Ignatius has a lot of talent and Ellis could have a key role as a scorer for a team that has a bunch of different guys that can hurt you on any given night. Ellis is an impressive shooter and knows how to attack a closeout, playing off the gravity his other guards provide. I expect college programs from all levels of college basketball to check out Saint Ignatius this winter and Ellis is a guy who should attract some small college interest this winter.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64f9ed46afec3"} /-->
