His ability to cover the length of the floor and provide defensive range at 6'10 is why high major schools are recruiting Pearson.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2376270"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66958142d76c4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stampley is an emerging talent out of Alton, IL. An athletic two-way guard who went viral due to his poster dunk in Atlanta. He can slash and attack with the best of them. He finds ways to impact with or without the ball. His creation ability is one of the best in the St. Louis metro. Stampley earned offers from Lindenwood and Missouri State as a result of his strong play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1872262"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66958142d772e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kimrey was outstanding in Phoenix. He led [program_tooltip program_id='2075378' first='MPJ' last='Elite'] to a championship game and was doing everything at a high level. Shooting, rebounding, defense… he can do it all. Kimrey went for 20 points in a Final Four game and took four charges. In the championship he made three 3s in the first half displaying plenty of shooting. He's a PG on the rise.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2111114"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66958142d7792"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Paulding picked up an offer from Drexel after playing this past weekend. A 6'5 wing that has been headed in the right direction as of late. His shot-making, on the ball ability, and physical build will be intriguing to other coaches. He's playing with [program_tooltip program_id='2077045' first='Marcus' last='Denmon Elite']. The son of former Mizzou great, Rickey Paulding. His game resembles a lot of the same traits.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1850526"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66958142d77ef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Reed is playing back at his age level with Mokan 16u and had an excellent game vs. Team Durant. His 12 points were key in making it a close ball game. He carves out space and posts hard. A double-double threat on this team. On film he looks like a forward who can play at one of the top programs in the country. He checks the boxes vs. top competition.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
