– Engelby is a five-foot-eleven-inch 2028 Andover guard that really can shoot the ball from beyond the 3-point arc and Engelby can do that in a number of different ways. Engelby is best off the catch from the perimeter and isn’t a guard you want to leave open. Engelby continues to show he can play either guard spot while shining a bit more as a secondary ball handler with his spot-up shooting ability.

Paxton had some nice moments that had his Fury-Shepherd team in it until the very end in the 16u championship game. During the first half he had a run of play where he converted an and-one finish, then went straight into the defender’s body to finish over a 6’5+ forward, followed up by a three pointer. Up-and-coming Andover guard that is still growing into his frame, but has a nice skillset with a smooth stroke out beyond the arc. With his skill-set he’s able to play either guard spot, and he helped lead his Fury team to a lot of wins this spring/summer.
