2024 Bo Koebbe (East Carolina Phenomz) Overall the Phenomz have a very talented and balanced squad, and Bo is one of their more consistent forces. He has a frame that allows him to play big but he has fluid mobility on the court and uses that to his advantage with his many different moves to the basket. Comfortable outside with the shot and a quality spacer that seems to find the ball naturally. Solid first weekend to open up and will be one to track this spring
2022 Jack Candaleria (TNT Hoopsquad)The best word to describe Jack's game is swift. He glides on the court with a blistering speed that catches defenders off guard and maintains his role in the offense whether it's running the point or following in to cut and screen in motion. He's a reliable shooter, as are all the guys on this team, protects the ball and looks to make the right plays without getting in a hurry. Could be a quality pick up for a program
2023 Cole Callaway (Carolina Riptide)Every team needs a shooter these days, but they have to be able to provide something to the game if their shots aren't falling. Cole stepped up and proved he can do that today by picking up a big 20pt 14reb double double. He put himself in good position and sought after rebounds as well as he keeps expanding his ability to pull the ball on the floor and finish floaters. But if he keeps doing his job as a rebounder and closing possessions like today, his value can only go up as a player
2023 AJ Miller (Riptide SC)I love a good big that stays ready for the ball. There's nothing flashy about his game but it's simply productive and he competes. He's got a big body with the wingspan and strength to handle bigger guys. And his game doesn't rely on him needing any postups or isolation on the block, he just naturally moves in the paint and follows the flow of the offense. He was the big beneficiary of their offense and made a living off catching dish offs with his big hands and going up quick
