Nick Kern 6’6″ Team GoL1ve: The versatile wing from Vashon displayed why he’s is one of the best offensive players in the state. He attacks the basket and scores above the rim or on pull up jumpers. He has an excellent post game and he crashes the offensive boards. He can dial up offense from many spots on the floor.
Cachao Gianquinto Cachao Gianquinto 6'3" | SG Battle | 2021 State MO 6’3″ Marcus Denmon Elite: An incredibly solid wing from Battle who did everything well in KC. He ran the point, played excellent defense, rebounded his position and displayed his versatile offensive game. He is tough on the drive with his physical strength and a smooth jumper to go along with it.
Najee Williams Najee Williams 6'3" | SG Truman | 2021 State MO 6’3″ Marcus Denmon Elite: One of the most explosive players at the Hardwood, the jumping jack from Truman had some spectacular dunks to go along with his solid all around play at both ends of the court. His perimeter shooting has continued to emerge.
Seth Larson 6’5″ Sting: A talented wing from Hickman with good size and outstanding skills with the basketball. He knew how to utilize his creative handles to get his own shot and get to his spots. I liked how he used the glass when he got in the lane and his jumper was very good. He also had a nice step back jumper in the post.
Kaleb Wofford Kaleb Wofford 6'3" | SG Nixa | 2021 State MO 6’2″ Carroll GoL1ve: The shooting guard from Nixa has an impressive stroke from long distance and a quick release to go along with it. His ability to put the ball on the floor is also coming along.
Khai Howard 6’0″ Team Invictus: A thick bodied guard from Webb City who could excel at all perimeter positions. He’s physically strong and he also operates well at different tempos. He was dropping dimes off the dribble, bullying his way into the lane and hitting jumpers.
Matt Thompson 6’2″ Missouri Flight: Talented guard from Sacred Heart who displayed his nice stroke from 3-point range throughout the weekend. I like he is constantly moving and working to get himself open.
Liam Weaver 6’4″ Marcus Denmon Elite: A Swiss-army-knife performer from Pembroke Hill who does everything well that doesn’t show up in the box score. He’s an impressive slasher on offense, but his rebounding, passing and playmaking skills make the team better.
Keegan Zdbyel 6’3″ Missouri Elite: A physical guard from Slater who plays a very unselfish game. As a standout quarterback in football, he is used to passing the ball and keeping his teammates involved. He can also score well on his strong takes to the basket.
