Caleb is one of a handful of Wisconsin prospects playing in this event, running with Border Select Basketball . I saw him in a matchup with Minnesota Select , where he got going early with a driving dunk along the baseline. At 6’4+ he has a blend of size, strength, and explosive athleticism out on the wing. Throughout the game he started to heat up from three, and connected on a few shots with a hand right in his face. Confident player who scored 17 points per game last winter for Osceola.

Irlbeck had it going from outside the three-point arc early in Border Select’s 64-61 loss to Minnesota Splash. He had a couple of triples in the first half to help his squad take a 28-26 lead at intermission. In the second half, the physically strong wing prospect took the ball to the basket and finished while also getting fouled. He finished the contest with a team-best 17 points and did a very good job of picking his spots to be aggressive. Irlbeck earned first-team all-Middle Border Conference honors last winter and helped Osceola to the league title by averaging 17.0 points and 8.6 rebounds. A solid all-around player who spent the majority of his time playing on the perimeter.

The 6’4” combo had an explosive second half against Waukee Jam and made the game an exciting contest in the games closing stages. Super confident release en route to four 2nd half triples. Also showed an ability to finish inside with both hands. Leading all scorers with 18 pts in a tight loss.

Caleb displayed the ability to score in a variety of ways for Diamond Hoops . He has a nice look to his catch and shoot from the corner and has the athleticism to slash and attack the rim or create, as illustrated by a nice reverse lay-in on a drive from the corner. Caleb can also penetrate and pull-up from midrange, adding another layer to his offensive repertoire. He creates scoring opportunities for himself by running the floor with purpose. A highlight moment for Caleb came Saturday afternoon when he secured a steal at half-court and exploded for a powerful one-handed jam over a defender on the break.
