PH IN State Tournament | Logan’s Saturday 15u Standouts Pt. 2

The Prep Hoops Indiana State Tournament still provided plenty of opportunities for players to make statements. From breakout performances to consistent production, these 15U standouts elevated their stock and helped their teams compete on one of Indiana's biggest grassroots stages. Here is Part 2 of Logan's Saturday Top 15U Standouts:    The skilled long and athletic wing put together quite a performance showing off his court vision in the [program_tooltip program_id='2076924' first='EG10' last=''] victory over Mac Elite. Bridgwaters has as much potential as essentially any player in the Indiana in-state class of 2029 due to his feel on the offensive side. He's comfortable playing with the ball in his hands on the perimeter. Good handle with long strides that allow him to get to spots. Capable shooter from the outside with a smooth left handed shot, but thrives in getting downhill where he can use his size to his advantage.     When it comes to talking about players end to end speed and explosiveness on the court, the conversation could very well start with Fishers High School product [player_tooltip player_id='2821347' first='AJ' last='Green']. An absolute dog on both ends of the floor, Green plays with a never ending motor and impacts the game in so many ways. He thrives in transition where he can use his speed and athleticism. He's always in attack mode looking to get downhill. Unselfish style of play that doesn't force the issue and is a willing passer with impressive court vision.     The first time getting see [player_tooltip player_id='3587880' first='Chadd' last='Mitchell Jr'] of Penn and TTS and he was able to keep his team in it throughout the game with his scoring and playmaking ability. Impressive ability to get to his spots. Strong frame that defenders just bounce off him on drives. Plays on balance and finishes around the rim with either hand. He showed his defensive potential picking up full court and causing chaos against opposing backcourts.     Another player where it was my first time seeing him in action and [player_tooltip player_id='2801971' first='Lincoln' last='Pardue'] did not disappoint. He's a smooth left handed guard with a good frame and a high IQ. Comfortable playing on or off the ball. Really good operating the pick and role not forcing the issue. Exceptional spot up shooter with a smooth release. Over the course of the part of two games I saw him he was able to knock down a handful of 3's. Also showed his ability to play out of the post to exploit a mismatch. Good footwork along with the ability to finish with either hand.     A kid that gets better every time I see him, Quentin Parker of Terre Haute North had his best game in front of me on Saturday where he showed his full arsenal. Combo guard that is like a microwave scoring the basketball. When he gets hot, he's tough to stop at all levels. Quick first step gets him to the rim. Comfortable playing with the ball in his hands but thrives off the ball spotting up for three where he shoots it at a high clip. Scoring 26 points for the game and it's possible his biggest impact on the game was on the defensive end of the floor where in the last five minutes of the game he was tasked in guarding the other teams best player. He was excellent on both sides of the ball, but his activity could very well be what won his team the game.     The sharp shooting guard out of Marion started off hot on both ends of the floor for EG10 on Saturday. Energetic shooting guard that can get hot in a hurry. Started the game I watched knocking down a couple 3's and kept the momentum going being impactful on both ends. Comfortable playing on or off the ball as a guard that thrives in transition. Really good coming off screens knowing how to get open. Really nice shot preparation able to get his shot off quickly. Steady defender that keeps his man in front while playing with active hands and good instincts to be in the right spot on rotations as well as rebounding.
