Yanez did a nice job putting his game on display at The Expo. He is just really solid and dependable with the ball in his hands. Yanez did a nice job finding lanes to the rim and attacking them off the bounce. He showed that he could find a cutter in stride with an accurate pass. Yanez did a nice job without the ball, constantly moving and repositioning.

Top 1 played a lot of entertaining games as three of their four battles were single-digit results. I was impressed by a few players from their team but wanted to spotlight the point guard Yanez. His team had balanced scoring in the game I caught and that was largely due to Yanez setting up a different teammate on each possession. If you take care of the basketball and help your teammates get good shots, you are doing your job as a point guard. This team has the talent to turn some of these close losses into wins as we progress through the spring and summer.

I highly advise scouts and coaches to not let Yanez slip under the radar this spring. He had a really good 2023 grassroots season and there’s been definite growth in his game. Yanez has shown that he can be a primary ball handler and a good distributer from the backcourt. Most recently, he was one of the best all around passers at the David Barns Showcase.

Yanez made a statement with his passing abilities at the David Barns Showcase, He made a couple passes that made eyes go big at the event. Yanez was able to slice through the defense with the pass and showed the ability to hit small spaces with accuracy.
