24’ F Harper Peterson – Jason Kidd Select S40 / Whitney (CA): The JK Select forward evokes ‘advantage minimization’ on the defensive end of the floor. Heightened awareness when the ball moves and quickly assesses potential passes or options for ball movement to occur. Peterson maintains active feet at all times and will provide help […]
24′ C Kate Koval – Exodus NYC EYBL / Long Island Lutheran (NY): Reliability continues to be strongly affiliated with Koval’s presence on the court. Last week at WPA Bruins Tipoff, she was a force in the halfcourt and in transition converting on a lot of quick-hitters. This week she featured her polished post-game flexing […]
25′ F Zaniah Zellous – WV Thunder UAA / George Washington (WV): Physicality was highly impactful for Zellous on the court. Successful in securing prime paint positions with shots in the air, she was very competitive on the glass. Likewise her ability to pull defenders out to the perimeter and consistently attack OTD or battle […]
24′ G Madisen McDaniel – Team Takeover EYBL / Bishop McNamara (MD): There may not be a player who’s taken up more slack from TTO’s plethora of last season’s departed offensive assets than McDaniel. Strict and high-pressure defense has remained consistent in her production, including multiple halves with 4+ steals alone, but improved speed and […]
25′ G/F Will Riley – UPlay Canada EYBL / The Phelps School (PA): Riley was a keen creator OTD and was nearly able to get to the rim at will. He approached driving lanes with patience and manipulated flashing defenders with hesitation dribbles to open opportunities to get deeper in the paint. His jumper was […]
24′ C Thomas Sorber – Team Final EYBL / Archbishop Ryan (PA): Broad, high-level impact describes Sorber’s contributions on the floor this weekend. Defensively disruptive shifting over as a reliable helpside shot-blocker at the rim, but showed above average lateral mobility for his position to blow-up pick-and-rolls with his hedging ability. He produced steals himself […]
24′ F Kuol Atak – 3d Empire / Haltom (TX): Atak found himself a bit bottled up putting the ball on the floor, however the circumstances unleashed his pure shotmaking abilities. His high release and adjustments off the pivot, even in off-balance looks, found the bottom of the net repeatedly. His added contributions on the […]
24′ F Robert Miller III – TJ Ford Elite / Pasadena Memorial (TX): Following a strong performance at Opening Day, Miller’s play continued at a very high level in this event as well. Stylistically he adopted a different approach offensively and found himself more efficiently putting up points. Opting for open 3s and/or driving all […]
25′ G Sania Richardson – Cy Fair EYBL / Ada (OK): Richardson came out swinging in this event and backed it up by firing on all cylinders. She set the tone on the offensive end knocking down 3s, aggressively driving to the bucket and creating scoring chances for her teammates. Most of all she was […]
24′ G Rian Forestier – SA Finest 3SSB / Brandeis (TX): Forestier is now the ‘vet’ on a strong SA Finest squad and she led by example with her play at both ends of the floor. Consistent perimeter shot-making, especially in the corners, contributed to reliable offensive production over the weekend. However, she was able […]
