#1- Jamey Patterson- Despite being the smallest and youngest player in attendance, Patterson consistently found ways to make his presence felt. He lacks physical strength but possesses IQ and an excellent understanding of how to position himself for success on both ends of the floor. Patterson is a reliable ball-handler and playmaker with the ability to set up others or knock down shots.
#80- Erza Jamison- Given his consistent production throughout the weekend, it’s easy to appreciate what Jamison brings to the table. He’s a strong, mobile forward prospect who plays bigger than his size would imply. Jamison displays the ability to make an impact with or without the ball in his hands. He also rebounds well on both ends and can push transition play as needed.
#136- Elias Ayres- Every team can utilize a player like Ayres, someone who plays hard, works for extra opportunities, and takes advantage of scoring chances within the flow of the action. He fights for rebounds but also does a nice job of spacing the floor.
#127- Will Brimmer- Between his combination of size, skill, and athleticism, Brimmer had no issue applying pressure throughout the camp. He utilizes his length, motor, and toughness well to force turnovers and effectively push transition play. Brimmer can create his own shot or set up others, but doesn’t require the ball to make an impact.
#123- Jaedon Whitaker- Considering everything he’s done during camp, it’s easy to see Whitaker’s impact with this group. He’s a wiry, athletic wing/forward prospect with a nice penetration sense and the ability to move without the ball. Whitaker does a nice job of intercepting passing lanes and making solid decisions offensively.
#147- Ryan Bottomley- The steady, low-maintenance big man consistently produced within his role on both ends of the floor. He finishes, rebounds, and understands how to alter shots around the basket. Bottomley also runs the floor hard in transition and doesn’t look to do too much outside of his comfort zone.
#75- Malin Allard- Though it’s become a regular occurrence at camp, Allard continues to produce with any collection of teammates. He’s a reliable shooting threat from the perimeter but seemed to get downhill and finish whenever he wanted. Allard made defensive plays, led by example, and proved to be excellent in transition. He was easily among the more productive players in attendance.
#77- Danzelle Coles- Despite being one of the younger guys on his team, Coles consistently stood out as a leader by example. He’s smart, tough, unselfish, and applies phenomenal pressure in transition. Coles moves well without the ball, but can also create his own shot off the bounce. He defended his position well and worked effectively within the team concept.
