Xander stood out to me as one of the post players in the tournament who impacted the game on both ends in a positive way. Pruzinsky uses his height to snag second chance rebounds, stretch the floor on the perimeter, and fly above the defense for momentum shifting dunks. Coming off an impressive summer with AB Elite , Xander has had his stock rise significantly and continues to make waves in his recruitment with strong outings such as this one.

His talent for controlling the glass as a rebounder came through his nasty physicality, sheer size, and overwhelming upper and lower-body strength.
