As action continued throughout Saturday and into Sunday morning here were more young players that caught our attention: Alex Preston – The 6’7” long and lengthy big man really impressed with his physical tools and skillset for a young player his size. He has good feet and soft hands that allow him to catch tough passes or gather rebounds for easy lay-ups around the rim. Maybe Preston’s best skill at this point though is his ability to run the floor.… READ MORE >
