<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Team 2 was loaded with talent at the <strong>#PHFreshmanShowcaseGA</strong>, and the group as a whole left a strong impression. From high-energy playmakers to versatile scorers, this team brought toughness and consistency across the board. Here's a breakdown of how each player stood out…</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2965522,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/Jordan-White.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/Jordan-White.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-2965522" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Jordan White</strong> (6'1/F/'29/Fayette County) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: J1tootuf</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @J1tootuff110331</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Jordan was arguably the most physical player in camp and displayed a strong foundation to build on. His aggressive, downhill attacking style stood out immediately as he played with one speed and one mission: to get to the rim. Even if he had not been as productive offensively, Jordan still would have been among the top performers thanks to his motor and relentless effort. He was simply the hardest-playing prospect on the floor, impacting winning by dominating the paint, finishing at the cup, and outworking his opponents. He is the type of player coaches want on their roster but opponents hate playing against.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2965523,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/PH-GAVIN-INGLE-C.png"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/PH-GAVIN-INGLE-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-2965523" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Gavin Ingle</strong> (5'10/Wing/'29/Walker Valley) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: g15.isthatguy</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @gball_hoops</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Gavin put together a solid day, making a number of eye-catching plays. He may not be the flashiest or most athletic prospect, but he consistently makes winning plays. With a reliable perimeter jumper, good court awareness, and sound passing ability, Gavin competed well against quicker, more explosive players. His impact extended beyond scoring as he served as a glue guy who kept things running smoothly on both ends of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2965524,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/PH-Maliki-Moore-C.png"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/PH-Maliki-Moore-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-2965524" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Maliki Moore</strong> (5'5/PG/'29/Stratford) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: luhmal.1</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @maliki moore</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Maliki is a small but energetic point guard who made the most of his minutes. He brought spark and tempo to the game, showing flashes of his ability to organize the offense. His size did affect his play at times, but that also presents an opportunity, as learning to fully leverage his quickness and low center of gravity will help him turn that challenge into an advantage. Maliki has a strong foundational skill set and with continued development, he has the tools to grow into an effective lead guard.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2965527,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/Gavin-Maholmes.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/Gavin-Maholmes.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-2965527" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Gavin Maholmes</strong> (5'8/PG/'29/Providence Christian Academy) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: Flashy_gavin</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Gavin displayed poise as a young lead guard, showing he can both orchestrate the offense and put points on the board. He made good reads as a ball-handler in pick-and-roll action, displayed unselfishness, and let the game come to him rather than forcing the issue. His budding point guard IQ, combined with his natural confidence, sets him on a promising trajectory to develop into a strong floor general in the years to come.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2965530,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"media","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/PH-Rushabh-Shah-C.png"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/09/PH-Rushabh-Shah-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-2965530" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2920723' first='Rushabh' last='Shah']</strong> (6'1/Wing/'29/Etowah) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG:&nbsp;rushabh._shah_</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @rushabh_shah_29</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Rushabh impressed with his pace and versatile offensive skill set. He consistently created separation by initiating contact off the bounce, leading to quality looks. He proved to be an efficient scorer from all levels, particularly strong when finishing through traffic at the rim. Despite being young, he already shows a mature understanding of how to get to his spots and execute once he is there. Rushabh's blend of feel and scoring ability makes him a prospect to keep tabs on moving forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
