<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Let's check out some game changers in round two, specifically looking at the teams in the win-or-go-home matchups. Here are four guys who will have a lot to say about their teams' fates this weekend, and if their state tournament runs will continue. These guys need to be sharp for their squads to reach their peak, and will be some key names to watch as round two gets going.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2629689"],"_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-69a11ada2e83d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Although he's just a sophomore, Lowery has seen more and more responsibility within the offense to get them set up and initiate action. Even in their loss to Lincoln in the district championship game, he was their main source of offense, getting to the paint and finding ways to get space and score. He'll be a key player for them throughout the tournament, who can be a constant playmaker and downhill threat.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2375345"],"_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-69a11ada2e8f1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Moles is a pretty solid guard who has the pace and vision to make plays all over the court. His reactions and quick bursts allow him to get to the ball, get to space, and be an aggressor on the court. He's averaging 11.2 pts, 5.3 reb, 4.0 ast, and 1.9 stl this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2140863"],"_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-69a11ada2e979"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Liberty excels when its guards are knocking down open shots, and Burley is one of those guys who can really get going from deep. He has the ability to extend beyond the arc, really pull the defense away from the paint, but has also proven to be a smart ballhandler and passer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2384271"],"_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-69a11ada2e9fd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Woodway has been pretty balanced this year, but one guy who can explode scoring the ball and do it efficiently has been Williams. He's a guy who has shown he can get a quick 20 without dominating the ball, and has been a supremely efficient scorer from all over this year. He's shot over 50% from 2FG, 45% 3PT, and 85% FT.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
