Rising Sophomores Primed for Breakout AAU Seasons

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The KHSAA season just ended last weekend but AAU practices are starting up all over the Commonwealth. Let's break down some 2029s whose stock could take off this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2906291"],"_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-69c82307b6455"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Peter had a fairly underwhelming Freshman season at West Jessamine compared to the potential he showed at our Freshman event in August. Patterson has the size and tools to be a very impactful big and will have the chance to show it playing on the 15 EYBL with Team Thad. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2525393"],"_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-69c82307b64c7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Eli was another top performer at our freshman showcase event and he didn't even dress varsity this season at Manual. WIlliams has the potential to be a really good slasher on the ball and has the size to guard multiple positions on the other end of the court. He will be playing on the Nike circuit and should have opportunity to prove himself.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2780946"],"_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-69c82307b650f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Daviess County is graduating 4 starters and Michael Acton is the lone player coming back who made big time contributions for the Panthers this season. Aidan should be next up for DC. A big wing who can get to the rim and knock down perimeter shots, Aidan is already blessed with great size and has a frame that should continue to fill out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2888407"],"_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-69c82307b654f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Similar to his teammate [player_tooltip player_id='2906291' first='Peter' last='Patterson'], Haffley had a fairly limited freshman season at West Jessamine. Brayden has a strong frame and is a good shooter. He looks like he's still growing and could be an impact player in the region next season. This summer should be all about development and working on his ball skills, especially handling the ball in traffic.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
