This Grover has big-time potential. Nice length on the wing, very fast up and down the court, bouncy athlete, impressive dunker. Ryder also spreads the floor and cashes the 3-point shot. He also has exciting upside on defense. Soper will cause problems up and down Region 1 this coming season.

Comments: Breakout high school season, named an All-Region 1 Player, high-level athlete, runs like an animal & jumps out of the gym, does it all on the court

Mr. Soper is a player to watch this weekend thanks to his athleticism and versatility. A lanky 6’2″ wing/guard, he brings bounce, speed, and explosiveness that show up all over the floor, especially in transition, where he’s at his best, flying end to end. Soper is a true three-level scorer who can impact the game in multiple ways, and he’s coming off a strong high school season that earned him All-Region honors. He plays with confidence and continues to show upside as his game develops. His combination of athletic tools, scoring ability, and versatility makes him a dynamic threat and a player who can make a big impact throughout the weekend.
