Rock Spring Classic: Day 3 Standouts

STOUGHTON -- One of the Midwest's top spring events, the 2019 Rock Spring Classic came to a close on Sunday. Who stood out on the final day with championships on the line?   Jimmy Baisden - 2021 - G - Young Lions Black Baisden was often seen on Sussex Hamilton's bench last season, but proved on Sunday that he's certainly a sleeper in the state of Wisconsin. The junior guard did some really impressive things at the rim, able to penetrate to the basket, hang and finish in traffic. Baisden has good body control and can adjust in mid-air. A 6-foot combo guard with length, Baisden might be in store for a breakout season as a junior with the Chargers. Shilo Bowles - 2020 - F - Wisconsin Rap Trending upwards this spring, Bowles boosted his stock with an active performance on Sunday. Bowles changes games with his ability to score in transition. He gets out and runs the floor, leaving his man in the dust. His guards love to find him streaking along the wings and allowing Bowles to get a head of steam and finish above the rim. A long, athletic forward with a high upside, Bowles continues to take steps forward and is one of the fastest rising players in the 2020 class. Jacob Buchman - 2020 - PF - Wisconsin Blizzard This kid doesn't get a lot of pub, but seems to make a sizable impact on the game every time we see him. The junior forward is just very active around the rim and makes some momentum changing plays. At 6-foot-6, Buchman has a big, strong frame and moves well for his size. He was extremely impressive as a shot blocker, timing shots and pinning them up on the glass. Buchman may not make a huge impact in the scoring column, but the Hortonville forward likes doing the dirty work and certainly knows how to protect the rim. Brayden Dailey - 2021 - F - Wisconsin Playground Club Whenever Dailey is on the floor, he has the green light to shoot the rock. One of the most lethal scorers in the state, Dailey can put the ball in from anywhere and rarely suffers through any type of shooting slump. Despite a loss to the Young Lions, Dailey had a solid showing, finishing above the rim on some pretty drives and showing off Dirk Nowitzki-esque shooting ability in the post, fading away from the rim off one foot. Dailey seems to have added some much-needed weight and plays much more physical. He'll be a high priority mid-major target without a doubt, but if his burst and quickness on the ball improves...watch out. Isaiah Hoyt - 2021 - SG - Wisconsin Sharks Hoyt came ready to play in a Sunday morning win over Breakaway. The sophomore guard was everywhere, playing the passing lanes, attacking the rim, and setting up his teammates for quality looks. An outstanding defender, Hoyt anticipates extremely well defensively and quickly turns mistakes into instant offense. Hoyt was excellent in the zone, laying in the weeds and picking off passes or beating the ball to its rotation point around the perimeter. Still somewhat of an unknown commodity in 2021, looks for Hoyt to be one of the better defenders in his class. Jayden Jackson - 2021 - SG - ABC Young Lions Black The Young Lions picked up a huge win over Wisconsin Playground Club in the 16U Sweet 16. Jackson continues to elevate his stock and push towards top 25 status in the 2021 class. The 6-foot-3 guard is a productive all-around player and a high percentage shooter. Unlike most talented guards, Jackson doesn't force a lot of shots. He's very patient and will rarely settle for anything but a clean look. Still scratching the surface, Jackson has a good blend of length and strength. He's very consistent in the catch-and-shoot game and has the physical tools to be a lockdown defender. Putting together a strong weekend, Jackson helped lead the Young Lions to the 16U semifinals. Logan Jedwabny - 2020 - W/G - Wisconsin Blizzard We teased his potential rise this spring during the high school season and Jedwabny has lived up to, if not exceeded expectations thus far. The Kaukauna sniper had another great effort on Sunday in a bracket play loss. The Blizzard looked to be out of the game until Jedwabny scored nine-straight points, including a hoop, plus the harm to briefly give his team a two-point lead with just 30 seconds left. A prospect that's just gained so much confidence as of late, Jedwabny can pull-up well beyond the arc and hit nothing but the bottom of the net. A floor spacer, Jedwabny forces defenders to chase him all over the floor, which opens up driving lanes for others. Among sharpshooters in the state of Wisconsin, Jedwabny might be the best and most efficient at setting his feet and letting it fly, with just an effortless looking stroke. Cael McGee - 2021 - SG - Wisconsin Playground Club McGee gave PGC some energy in the second half and nearly rallied his team to a win in the quarterfinals against Young Lions. The Stoughton standout got after people defensively and caused havoc. That seemed to spark him and PGC on the other end as McGee made some aggressive drives to the rack and found open teammates for easy scores. The lefty has a strong frame and likes to deliver contact inside. Tyrell Stuttley - 2020 - F - Wisconsin Premier A kid we've thought highly of recently, Stuttley led Premier past Chicago Hoops in the 17U semifinals. A strong and bouncy forward, Stuttley was all over the rim Sunday afternoon, dunking and blocking shots. While he makes a lot of noise with those types of highlights, Stuttley can do things in the half court as well. He's a smoother attacker of the rim with the ability to finish with either hand. He shows it more in high school, but Stuttley can also bang on the block and play with his back to the basket. Anthony Washington - 2020 - W/G - Wisconsin Premier Washington led Wisconsin Premier to the 17U title. The Madison East star just could not be kept away from the rim throughout the day. A smooth and bouncy athlete with above the rim ability, Washington lives in the paint and constantly goes downhill in the halfcourt or transition. A definite Division 1 talent, Washington shoots it well enough to make defenders respect him from the outside. Washington doesn't get enough credit for his defense either. While he makes a lot of highlight plays, Washington seems to enjoy the challenge of going up against other star players.
