[player_tooltip player_id='2837828' first='Levi' last='Sawatzky'] has had a very good start to his senior year leading the RedHawks with 10.8 points while adding 2.8 assists per game, as well. At 6'3, he is known has a knockdown shooter with a nice, physical build on the perimeter. Seems to always be capable of always getting hot at any moment. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2541107"],"_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-6948524edd940"} --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><strong>Tournament:</strong> Shenandoah (12/26-12/27)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>A senior guard out of Shenandoah that has had a really strong senior year is [player_tooltip player_id='2541107' first='Aiden' last='Coffey']. He has put up some really impressive performances while scoring over 20.0 points per game for his team. It is safe to say that Coffey just knows how to score the basketball especially with his mid-range game and consistent shotmaking from behind the arc. One of the better under-the-radar players we have in the entire state. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2140365"],"_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-6948524edd9b7"} --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><strong>Tournament: </strong>Perry-Spencer (12/27-12/29)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Down in southern Indiana is a junior point guard that can produce at such a high level. Corydon guard [player_tooltip player_id='2140365' first='Grant' last='Lindemann'] has been extremely productive as expected this season averaging 18.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 3.3 steals. Lindemann is a high skilled guard that overall is just an excellent creator on the ball. One oof the best shooters in the south portion of the state. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2470698"],"_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-6948524edda32"} --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><strong>Tournament: </strong>Hall of Fame (12/23)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>It is no secret that the Silver Creek Dragons are one of the most loaded teams in the entire state with multiple D1 prospects helping lead them to an undefeated season so far. One of their starters that may not get the noticed as his fellow teammates is junior small forward [player_tooltip player_id='2470698' first='Brody' last='McLaughlin']. With really good length and overall skill, the 6'4 wing may not be a guy right now that is going to lead them in scoring, but he impacts winning in multiple areas. He makes plays around the basket and can be a mismatch problem against any team. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1561115"],"_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-6948524eddb23"} --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><strong>Tournament: </strong>Bloomington South (12/27)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>The most naturally athletic player on this watch list is without question [player_tooltip player_id='1561115' first='Tyrone' last='Elmore'] of Avon High School. After spending his sophomore and junior year at Moorseville, Elmore returned to finish off his high school career with Avon where he is averaging 10 points per game for them. Elmore knows how to use his physical tools to his advantage and if he has an opportunity to make a play downhill, he will do so. He will impress you with his athleticism alone. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2140435"],"_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-6948550c82df3"} --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><strong>Tournament:</strong> Homestead (12/26-12/27)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Rounding out this list is an under-the-radar point guard out of Zionsville High School, [player_tooltip player_id='2140435' first='Rylon' last='Gore']. So far this season, Gore is leading the Eagles with 13.3 points per game while also adding 2.8 rebounds per game as well. Going into this season, Gore was expected to take on a bigger role for Zionsville and he has exceeded so far as their lead guy. The 6'0 guard is shooting threat as soon as he steps onto the floor with ball handles to make a him an underrated playmaker as well. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
