#68 Greg Moore (Team Passion 16u)
Nice length and natural athleticism. Ball-watching on offense a touch . Movement off ball lags behind his hungry attacking mind when on ball Must improve at finishing through contact. Solid to good catch-and-shoot player. Moore’s shooting touch is very good. Unfortunately, he takes a long time to get his three-point shot into and out of the shooting pocket. Moore will need to quicken this process without losing effectiveness. Shooting currently provides Moore with an important scoring avenue.
G Isaiah Smith (Team Passion 16u)
Catch-and-shoot guard at 16u level. Very eager off the ball. He loves his teammates and plays without an ego or agenda. He is 100% invested in team success. Isaiah Smith attended the PrepHoopsTN Summer Combine. Read more specificity about his game here. He is a member of the Class of 2022.
Isaiah Smith possesses the grit and skill to score in bunches.Wing Forward Tony Sapp (Team Passion 16u)
Nimble. Runs the floor very well. Plays forward now, but projects as an athletic wing. Sapp probably belongs in the top 150 of the state, but we need more evaluation of his game. Tony Sapp wears #4 with Team Passion.
Kell Slater (Team Passion Elite 16u)
Wears #32 with Team Passion. Needs more lift off the deck to enable him to secure more rebounds, specifically on the offensive end. Slater is a member of the Class of 2022.
C Riley Galler (Team Passion 16u)
Wears #33 with Team Passion. Needs agility to keep up with elite bigs. Willing to grind and do the grunt work. Clearly spent some valuable time in the weight room.
#122 Harper Neal (Team Passion 16u)
Wears #22 jersey. Physical. Rebounds with a purpose. Muscular. Active off the ball. Sometimes too eager defensively. It is easier to calm a player down than to bring energy out of him, so this is hardly a concern. He was also an aggressive rebounder at the 16u level. Loves contact! Plays with that sense of body control and power of a football player who stepped onto the deck. He brings an enthusiasm to the court that teammates react favorably to.
Bryson Boles (Team Passion 16u)
Battles in trenches. Undersized forward. At least with AAU, he guards the low block to short corner. Not a leaper. Wears #40 with Team Passion.
