Joshua makes his debut inside the top 60 and much of it has to do with his consistent productivity for a good Kennedy team this season. He thrived in his role, which was posing as a valuable floor spacer with ability to make his defender pay for any slight hesitation in closing out. If he wasn’t making teams pay from three, he was making his impact on the defensive end as a versatile option that could guard 1-3 positions. He showed good lateral quickness, anticipation guarding in space and used his length to shrink the shooting window for his matchup. He’ll certainly play an increased role for the Cavaliers as a junior and will be one to watch as he further develops this spring/summer.

Maxwell became a major difference-maker in the second half with his energy and toughness on both ends. He defended hard in the backcourt and created disruption for the opposition with deflections and steals. He also rebounded well for his position and stayed active around the ball each minute on the floor. Offensively, he took the right shots and made timely baskets that kept Kennedy alive. The biggest moment was his game-tying three after a pump fake that sent the game to overtime. In OT he delivered another strong sequence with a big block, then hit a three from the top to give Kennedy the lead. Max showed his versatility by handling guard duties and sliding up to forward when needed. His constant effort and impact earned him more and more trust to stay on the floor as things swung in intensity.
