Sunbash Recap - Top-Level Prospects

<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />   It will only take about five minutes of watching this young man to see why he is so highly touted. He is long and lanky, with arms and wingspan that are a weapon all on their own. Now, couple that with his energy getting up and down the court and his good athleticism, and you have a DI-level prospect on your hands. Outside of his God-given attributes, things that stand out are his ability to block shots at the rim and jump shots on the perimeter, his ability to help on defense and cover a large amount of ground, and his quick hands and deflections that lead to steals. He is an obvious lob threat on the offensive end, but he also has a smooth jump shot that forces you to respect him no matter where he is on the court.   <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />       Delancy is a competitor who consistently finds ways to impact the game. At his core, he is a shot creator, with a deep bag and a lot of creativity. One thing that stands out about him is how quickly he transitions after a defensive stop, getting out and running looking for the advanced pass putting pressure on the other team's transition defense. This ability enables him to seize numerous scoring opportunities in transition with momentum already in his favor. Additionally, despite how fast he is moving up and down the court, it appears as though the game is moving in slow motion for him.     Harris, a standout freshman, is recognized as one of the top players in the nation, not just in his state. With numerous accolades already under his belt, he has joined the prestigious 1,000-point club and is poised to break records in the coming years.   Harris's unique combination of size, strength, and high basketball IQ gives him a distinct advantage over opponents. As a true three-level scorer, he excels at scoring from inside the paint, mid-range, and beyond the arc. His ability to stretch the floor as a shooter and great post moves make it hard to find someone who can actually guard him at the high school level.   Harris' versatility enables him to exploit bigs by pulling them out to the perimeter and overpower guards and wings by bullying them to his spots. Harris is an excellent teammate and the type of star player that others would enjoy playing with. He is a willing passer and can be deadly in the pick-and-roll, whether has the ball or sets the screen. Defensively, he excels in his ability to guard the interior, switch on players, and use his length to disrupt jump shots.       Mr. Jones, meet the rim. Rim, meet Mr. Jones. Jones is one of the most explosive prospects we've seen at his size. He consistently puts on a show during fast breaks with highlight-reel dunks. His finishing package includes an array of acrobatic finishes with a flair of creativity.   Defensively, Jones is hard to stay in front of, thanks to his next-level acceleration and deceleration abilities.       Grimsley excels at playing off his jump shot, demonstrating the ability to make shots and score in bunches. He understands that when defenders overreact to simple jabs and ball fakes, he can get past his initial defender and still create great looks around the rim or retreat to open space for another jumper. As a reliable floor spacer, Grimsley forces the defense to account for him at all times.       <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />   Ahlers was scoring at will, making it look effortless. He has patience, allowing the game to come to him, but also creates opportunities for himself through off-ball movement and cuts to get open. He showcased his three-point shooting by making shots off the catch-and-shoot, dribble pull-ups, screens, and pick-and-roll reads.   Ahlers played solid defense with some blocks and demonstrated good anticipation by jumping passing lanes for easy transition opportunities, where he showed a bit of bounce with a few easy dunks. He is certainly a player to keep an eye on as he continues to develop.
