Let’s take a closer look at some of the Top 2-Way Standouts from a packed event at the Champions Center in Appleton, Wisconsin.
Tyrell Taylor | BNB
Taylor was a menace in the passing lanes and in the paint all weekend. His activity atop the zone put a wrench in his opponents offense a great deal. His height and wingspan allowed him to block shots and rebound for BNB. Taylor’s efforts made him an impact player on both ends of the floor.
Ben Kappell | Chapman North
Kappell was one of the most athletic players at the future stars classic. He wields great size and speed at the wing position. His bounce and strong base gave his team the edge in the rebound battle, allowed him to guard anyone on the floor effectively, and shoot over the top of mismatches around the painted area.
Jacobi Henry | Team Relentless
Henry was a rare mixture of star and glue guy for Team Relentless. Guarding the opposing team’s best player came easy for the stocky combo guard. Leading his team on the boards and points in the paint, Henry was able to make plays for himself and others quite a bit by pushing the break and applying pressure on the paint.
Layton Hamilton | Chapman North
Hamilton led with a balanced attack over the weekend. He was very effective on all three levels of the floor without dominating the ball. He has sneaky athleticism that allows him to rebound well and score around the basket in a great way. His size and speed allow him to guard multiple positions as well.
Charlie Bleimehl | Milwaukee Blazers
Bleimehl had an impressive showing throughout the weekend for the Milwaukee Blazers. He stood out as a strong perimeter defender, beating opponents to their spot and jumping into passing lanes. He was able to catch fire from beyond the arc as well and hit some clutch baskets down the stretch.
