<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The last 2025 Prep Hoops event in Colorado showcased the incoming seniors' talent in full effect. 2-Way guards are one of the most valuable pieces to the puzzle on any roster, providing elite defense and innovative offense. Here are a handful of hoopers who fit this role to a tee. Let's talk about it. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1622240"],"_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-68c8f191b20ce"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1622240' first='Tiden' last='Silver-Colbert'] is a well-rounded 6'2 shooting guard who sticks to his matchup like glue. On offense, Silver-Colbert scores on all three levels. Having developed his interior game, Silver-Colbert absorbs contact and earns multiple trips to the foul stripe each game. The intangibles are what make a player shine, and Silver-Colbert's mental approach to basketball puts him a step ahead of the competition. With a lethal jumpshot and a quick handle, Silver-Colbert is set up for a huge finale season at Denver West. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1577231"],"_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-68c8f191b212e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1577231' first='Talbert' last='Borne III'] is a spot-up three-point specialist who is always confident with the ball. Borne's court vision and IQ for the game speak volumes as he's able to pinpoint his teammates for assists. Being able to switch screens on the fly and wreak havoc defending his matchup makes him such a dynamic player for any coach to have. Expect Borne III to continue making noise at George Washington this fall. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1622235"],"_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-68c8f191b2176"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1622235' first='Preston' last='Brunton'] makes magic happen when he laces up, creating space for himself while slicing through defenders.

Eason is a lockdown perimeter defender who loves to be a pest when guarding the ball.
