While they couldn’t pull off a win in either, there were many positive takeaways for these young players taking on players bigger and stronger than them.
Lawrent Rice Lawrent Rice 6'4" | PG Huber Heights Wayne | 2023 State #184 Nation OH is arguably Dayton’s best 2023 player and was also the best guard on the court in both games he played. The lefty has a lengthy frame, has crisp handles, and can pull up from anywhere to hit some shots. He is continuing his improvement in finishing at the rim, but he does not shy down from a physical battle. He already holds a D-1 offer from Ohio U, but he has the potential to earn much bigger offers. You can tell his athleticism is increasing from just a few months ago and we will potentially start seeing highlights of him dunking on people soon.
Antaune Allen Antaune Allen 6'2" | CG Dunbar | 2023 State OH is a solid guard who has tremendous strength already. He is physical and can be a lockdown defender. He uses his strength on the drive inside which is the strongest part of his game. As his game matures, I expect him to be a defensive machine and to be a consistent scorer.
Hollis Terrell is a new name for me from this weekend. He showed great physical strength and you can tell he is still growing. He didn’t shy down from physical battles and even had an athletic block on a near poster dunk. He will be a name to follow in the future.
AJ Leen was another player that stood out to me. He held his own and was a true competitor. He has good shooting abilities and will be a key piece for Alter, along with Jacob Conner Jacob Conner 6'7" | PF Alter | 2022 State OH , going forward after losing most of their senior-loaded shooting power.
