With these, we want to highlight 3 players who are similar in class and position. Get some time to dive into some quick thoughts, stat breakdowns, and film. Today, we are looking at 2022 Point Guards in Branden Northern Branden Northern 5'11" | PG Silver Creek | 2022 State IN , Clayton Bridwell Clayton Bridwell 5'11" | PG Twin Lakes | 2022 IN , and Jonah Pennington Jonah Pennington 6'0" | PG Indianapolis Pike | 2022 State IN .

– 5’10 PG 2022 – Silver Creek (IN)
Stats: 14.0 ppg, 6.1 apg, 2.1 spg
Thoughts: Northern is a smaller point guard with good speed and handles. Not the most fancy point guard but does a great job with getting his teammates good scoring opportunities. Northern himself provides a good amount of scoring with averaging 14.0 ppg. He gets a lot of points on the drive as his quickness allows him to get past defenders. Has a nice floater to his game as well. Would like to see him show his jumper a bit more. Lot of potential in Northern.
Clayton Bridwell

Twin Lakes | 2022

– 5’10 PG 2022 – Twin Lakes (IN)
Stats: 9.0 ppg, 2.7 apg, 2.1 spg
Thoughts: Bridwell is a smaller lead guard with good IQ. He has done a good job in adding more muscle and strength to his frame. Plays pretty aggressively on defense as he is not afraid to make some plays for his team. Pretty good shooter off the catch and does a solid job around the rim. Very good at finding his teammates for open looks. Could transition into more of a combo guard as his playing career continues. Needs to continue to get stronger and better but Bridwell is a solid prospect right now.
Jonah Pennington

Indianapolis Pike | 2022

– 5’10 PG 2022 – Indianapolis Pike (IN)
Stats: N/A
Thoughts: Pennington is a smaller point guard with a long body frame. He’s really good with the ball in his hands as he is very creative. He can pass pretty well already and sees the floor well. Really good on the drive and is a solid shooter. Needs to continue to grow his body and get stronger. Interesting talent that has the potential to be really good. Smart player that should continue to get better and better. Keep an eye on this Pike guard.
