Terence Anthony-Larmouth of Maple Grove. The Crimson return four players from last year’s rotation so there is plenty of room for playing time on a team that’s been in the state tournament consistently the last five years. At 6-foot-5 Anthony-Larmouth has the size for Maple Grove to use him in a few spots in the line-up and Thursday he showed comfort with the ball in his hands on the perimeter. Terence used his size to finish at the rim and he rebounded in bulk. Every player wanted to show their three point shot in this event, some were successful, some not. Terence hit multiple threes in each of the four games.
Andre Crockett Jr of Rochester Mayo. Andre played consistently last year for Mayo scoring 7-8 a game. He won’t be new to Mayo but if Andre plays like he did on Thursday the Spartans should be able to rely on more than just Gabe and Mason for double digit scoring (making him a new name to teams that have to worry about defending the Spartans). Crockett has added a lot of strength which helped him physically turn corners, and keep balance on his attacks for several finishes. Andre showed a nice touch on his pull-up as well.
Peyton McConville of Big Lake. Peyton is a 6-foot-3 wing who will be a senior. Peyton’s high effort play worked his way into space and helped him take advantage of every opportunity he could. Scored 15 points on nine attempts in the final game, should be a key player for the Hornets next year. McConville was a Big Lake junior varsity player a year ago but surely looks to have grown into a varsity type role, likely a strong role.
Jamar Gardner of Minneapolis Henry. The Henry Patriots have four players that have the talent to play at the double figure level next year putting at least three scoring options on the floor at all times. Mark Campbell and Glentrell Carter are the main weapons while Yusuf Abdullah and Jamar have improved to being that level of player. Jamar used his quickness to beat nine out of ten defenders in the event to the rim. There was also a want to perform in the clutch from Jamar who scored late game clutch buckets in two of the games.
DJ Miller of Maple Grove. Another Crimson senior who played JV minutes a year ago but should step into a big role is DJ Miller. There were times were the offensive aggression of Miller had him looking like a legit #1 option at this event. Of course a prospect showcase event isn’t the same as a talented high school basketball game, but it does say something about how improved Miller is. DJ’s aggressive basket attack opened shots for others and then he hit five threes in his opener. Consistently attacked with success.
Cade Callahan of Becker. With good size (6-foot-5), experienced background (scored 9-10 a game last year), and a persistence of work (Cade has impressed at Breakdown Summer Showcases, this event, 17U) we think Cade can be a player that scores 15-16 a game next year and is looked at by multiple D3 schools next year. A talent to go see soon.
Ryan BoysenFive More
Ryan Boysen of Rockford. The line-up at Rockford has a lot of punch inside and out. Boysen is the punch from the arc.
Morgan Culhane of STMA. Morgan is so close to good things. He’s 6-foot-7, plays hard, and is always getting on the court in everything Minnesota has to offer. He’s close.
Tate Laabs of Princeton. I didn’t get to see Tate yesterday just on bad luck of rotating games but I’ve seen him play this summer and he’s on the verge of having a great year. I love how Tate’s primary concern is team with every choice.
Adam Strobel of Chanhassen. Adam is 6-foot-4 and coming off a good JV year. One of the most consistently productive 2021s at Kennedy from Minnesota.
Nolan Burmeister of Owatonna. Hats off to you Nolan! So many players here forced shots in the games. It’s natural in this setting. Nolan decided that instead of forcing shots as well, he was going to help provide good shots for the rest of the team and he did a great job of it.
