Matthew Wright has had some high level rejections. Quick jumper, doesn't need a lot of run way. He's had some on ball, but a lot coming across the paint in help. Next level rim protector. @ClutchElite20 @NxtProHoops
Noah Hargrave '26 really is electric. Elite change of direction and just seems to move faster once he's in the paint. Has the 5th gear and knows how to use it. @cxrtified_noah3 @ClutchElite20 @NxtProHoops
6'5" Christian Tshina-Nzambi is fun to watch. Silky jumper and great length. Once he gets the shoulder past the defender he excels at planting and pulling up. Hard for defenders to bother him. @Chris_tshina @BuildYourWay3 @NxtProHoops
Christian Rogers is toying with people on these pick-and-rolls. Great change of direction, can beat you whichever direction you want to get beat. If you wait, he can pull from off the dribble behind the screen. @BuildYourWay3 @NxtProHoops
Emmett Rose '26 on stage for the world to see. Pull up J and then walks into a 30 foot three. Catch and shoot 3 from the wing and his team is up 10-2. @egetsbuckets33 @ClutchElite20 @NxtProHoops
Everyone in high level ball has a motor, but Dajon Haller, really stands out. Even simple things like close outs, he does with great energy and attention to detail. He's competes every catch and every dribble. @DaJonHaller1 #EpicAcademy @NxtProHoops
Kollin Douglas '26 stands out among high clip wing players. He shoots the three with ease and he really covers ground defensively. The body is ready for the next level and he's not afraid to get out and pressure. @thekdouglas @URBANDFWELITE @NxtProHoops
Jonas Cruz '26 has a little of that Jose Alvarado game, where eventually draws an offensive foul because he's so tough on defense. He'll come to the other end and bust a three. @TheJonasCruz #EpicAcademy @NxtProHoops
Zechariah Bennett '26 putting on a shooting display. In complete control, never rushed. Catch and shoot or off the dribble, he's finding the bottom of the net. @Zechhoops_ @URBANDFWELITE @NxtProHoops
6'7" Noah Sevy '26 has a high level offensive tool kit. He's a great catch and shoot guy. He's got enough agility to beat bad close outs. With his length he can make plays in the paing. @Noah_Sevy @COCollective303 @NxtProHoops
Todd Wilson is a winner. He's made some threes, but he's really making winning plays everywhere. Steals the ball from the post, kicks it ahead, sprints down and grabs the offensive rebound. He doesn't need to be told to win. #EADDallas @NxtProHoops
Izaiyah Romero '26 has been making some great passes this morning. He's been a solid floor general at getting the offense started, but he's also thrown a few passes where I'm not sure how, but he made it happen. @IzaiyahRomero @COCollective303 @NxtProHoops
Beren Gavin '26 makes tough shots. He can score over an outstretched hand or through contact. He handles well at 6'6" and could play 1-4 at the next level. @BerenBuckets26 @BasketballPAC @NxtProHoops
Briggs Young '26 could go on a heater at any moment. He's just hit a three and a pull up free throw line jumper. Third trip down he gets an assist of the pick-and-roll. He's making plays all over the court. @briggsyoung07 @Playersplayca @NxtProHoops
Tyler Vosburgh '26 is one to keep an eye on. 6'6" and shoots it with ease. Great corner three shooter or in pick and pop situations. @Playersplayca @NxtProHoops
Rylan King has been a high level shot maker for AUSA this afternoon. He's been great at finding the corners in transition or knocking down the floaters from mid range. @Rylan_King13 @AUSA_Hoops @NxtProHoops
Jack Smith finishes a lot of possessions. Loose balls, offensive rebounds, when the play breaks down. He ends up with the ball and can finish over the defense. He's shown good speed while handling as well. @JackSmith_Aus @AUSA_Hoops @NxtProHoops
