Khalil Davis (Princeton)
The Vikings guard excelled in fast break situations during 5 on 5 play. A patient guard, Davis made crisp and clean passes and was patient in his passing ways. He did not force poor shots or force any offense for that matter.
Skyler Schmidt (Clermont Northeastern)
A physical power forward, Schmidt was one of the top interior players I saw during the day. Having a high motor and strong upper body allowed him to excel on the glass. Offensively, he needs to work on taking better shots and knowing where he is on the floor, as he had a few missed layups where he was under the backboard and missed an easy bucket. Still without a doubt a player with great potential if he continues to improve.
Max Land (Moeller)
Land was one of the few prospects that communicated on the defensive end on Saturday. His versatility and athleticism is tough to match up against. On the offensive end, Max was tough to defend on the dribble drive and used his speed and athleticism to beat his man off the dribble. He has seen his stock rise since the state championship last March and continues to be an X-factor for Moeller going into 2020.
Nate Johnson (Lakota East)
Truly one of the best athletes whenever he steps on the floor, Nate continues to be a target for Division 1 programs. His athleticism is the first things I noticed on Saturday as he seems to always be playing over the rim. Possessing a great vertical leap and slasher mentality, Johnson shifts around defenders and can finish among taller defenders. His ability to defend the ball and his mobility is another reason why schools like Ohio University have jumped on offering him.
Aidan Reichert (Jackson Center)
A fundamentally sound forward, Reichert showed off his stamina and aggressiveness Saturday. Able to finish the ball in the paint or drive from the outside, Aidan has an offensive touch that makes him dangerous for a D4 high school player. He can defend multiple positions, especially the perimeter and should be a target for Division 2 schools.
