His game was defined by smart decisions, whether it was making the extra pass, hitting a spot-up three to boost team energy, or making clutch defensive stops to shift momentum. Ubawike also capitalized on his awareness, cutting sharply to exploit defensive gaps and grabbing key rebounds to ignite fast breaks. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2233741"],"_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-6732f36b08bbf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2233741' first='Luke' last='Stoehner'], a 6'6” forward, established himself as a highly consistent rebounder with excellent timing and box-out fundamentals, regularly forcing opponents out of the lane before leaping to secure boards at their highest point. Defensively, he displayed strong instincts as a shot-challenger, using his length and active hands to disrupt mid-range pull-ups and contest at the rim. His physicality and willingness to battle down low made him a formidable presence in the paint. Offensively, Stoehner posed a reliable pick-and-roll threat. He excelled at setting robust screens and rolling at the perfect angle for his point guard to deliver easy passes, leading to high-percentage scoring opportunities. When not screening, he flashed to open spaces and dove down the lane, acting as a key catalyst for maintaining offensive flow and providing versatility to his team's inside attack.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2552937"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2635223,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6732f36b08c1f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2552937' first='Isayah' last='Hayes'] is a consistently motor defender displaying a keen sense of anticipation, allowing him to react quickly and position himself effectively, especially when taking charges as he did remarkably. Hayes never gave up on a play, constantly hustling, whether he was running back on defense, fighting through screens, or chasing down loose balls. His relentless effort often set the tone for North Crowley's defensive intensity and physicality.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2555658"],"_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-6732f36b08c67"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2555658' first='Erick' last='Chavez'], a 6'4” raw but promising post player, displayed impressive length and lateral agility, allowing him to quickly cover ground, close out on shooters, and slide over effectively as a help-side defender. His defensive instincts and mobility suggest he has the potential to develop into a reliable defensive anchor. Chavez also shows the athleticism and timing position him as a dynamic rebounder with the ability to control the boards as he continues to refine his game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2635226"],"_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-6732f36b08cac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2635226' first='Erik' last='Lucero'] displays a soft touch on jump hooks and free throws, maintaining efficiency in both. His refined footwork stands out as he frequently plays off two feet with controlled jump stops and pivots. Lucero uses a versatile approach to face up, execute drop steps, and create driving angles, giving him multiple options to score or maneuver in the paint.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
