2023 @MassEliteHoop & David Prouty HS guard Braeden White has fluid mechanics on his shot, excels at making treys off the catch, and can make plays for others on ball screens or when attacking closeouts. pic.twitter.com/bDZhvjCc8G

2023 @MiddlesexMagic & @Raider_Hoops guard Isaac Chiu caught my eye defensively last game set. He moves his feet well laterally, has nice anticipation jumping into passing lanes, and knows how to draw charges. pic.twitter.com/LWMogiGZoU

2024 @DTXBasketball & @KolbeMBB wing Najimi George is a potent mid-range scorer with his pull-up or turnaround jumper from fifteen feet, has good burst/touch slashing to the hoop for finishes, and flies in for rebounds on both ends of the floor with his leaping ability. pic.twitter.com/TwDMcGWx5x

2023 @CapCityAAU & @PotterHousePG1 guard Zahki Fallen hits threes effectively when pulling up, has a crafty handle to get into the lane and score high arching teardrops, and finds streaking teammates well on the break for layups. pic.twitter.com/kppRW2AH4s

2025 @thebabc & @DanielHandHoops guard Chase Geremia has a smooth stroke from deep off the catch/bounce, gets to his soft mid-range pull-up well when attacking closeouts, and creates high percentage layup opportunities with his instincts as an off-ball cutter. pic.twitter.com/NypTYBXT1Q

Available @cwb20 & @PointeGrad 2022 guard Brandon Harris caught my eye last game set with his half-court/transition playmaking. He finds teammates in tight windows with bounce passes while also regularly getting lane penetration using subtle hesitation moves. pic.twitter.com/S24G6OoHqI

2023 @NJBulldogsAAU & @LvilleAthletics guard Hampton Sanders is difficult to keep out of the paint with his explosive first step, finds teammates well in the half-court on drop-offs/kickouts, and can hit open standstill treys. pic.twitter.com/VSSM0q9b2C
