Tanner is a under the radar prospect who not many know about due to him going to a small school, but he made it a point to get out and compete for Elevation over the Summer and he made his impact of them. Tanner has a solid frame and used his length and athleticism to get to where he wanted on the floor. He carved out space on the block, moved guys around and powered through them and had a few scoring runs that showed that he’s a very capable scorer no matter who he’s up against. I like the tenacity of which he plays with as he really did make his mark when we saw him over the Summer and we hope to see more of him moving forward. We certainly expect some big time scoring and rebounding numbers for Platte Canyon this year. 

Tanner is a long, patient interior player who stood out on day 1 with his size and activity. He controlled space on the block and altered shots around the rim. Tanner plays with strong hands, seals early, and finishes through contact, and that happened multiple times in their Day 1 blowout. There’s a maturity to his pace and positioning that translates, and I liked how he played on the block. He impacts the game without forcing it, and his ability to anchor defensively while scoring when it opened up for him makes him a name to track closely moving forward. Solid day 1. 

Tanner delivered an impressive Day 1 performance, showcasing a polished and versatile offensive game. He operated smoothly from the mid range and in, using sound technique to get to his spots and knocking down shots with a confident, fluid stroke. What stood out most was his ability to run the floor and draw defenders, creating easy scoring opportunities for teammates on dump offs and open threes. Tanner also made his presence felt on the glass, rising above defenders to secure key rebounds on both ends of the floor
