Sullivan is putting up the same outstanding play that he did at Garber last season.
Against Moore, Sullivan hit a few remarkable shots out of the handle from 3-point range. He has tightened up his shot, and he has increased mobility, fluid handle-to-shot to strike swiftly before defenders can get a solid close-out.
Reid Lovelace Reid Lovelace 5'10" | PG Crossings Christian | 2022 State OK | 2022 Crossings Christian PG
Lovelace has taken his game to new heights during an excellent junior campaign.
Where shooting was more or less a capability for him, he is evolving on a game-by-game basis to becoming a top-tier sharpshooter.
As a point guard, his primary passing skill has elevated further to the point in which the first name that comes into my mind when I think about great passers in the state, Lovelace is the first name that comes into my mind.
Marcus Dockins | 2022 Moore SF
An abundantly athletic wing, Dockins can really throw down, and he protects the rim, too.
Once he got loose, he was really dangerous. He has serious quickness, can slash through the defense with ferocity, and though he only stands about 6-foot-2, he was the biggest presence on the floor in two contests I watched.
And that is not all there is to his game. Dockins can also hit shots out of the dribble from long range. He scored 19 points in the John Nobles championship game against Millwood.
Lenado Henderson | 2022 Moore C
The ultimate three-shooting post, Henderson knocked down a pair of 3-pointers against Millwood.
He has stature and some finesse to his game, but most importantly, he has power and controlled aggression with the ball in his hands to score.
The 3-pointers were peculiar, both coming off compromised situations, but it also tells a story that he has taken time to develop an array of his talents to suit the needs of his team.
Rickey Hunt Rickey Hunt 6'0" | PG Millwood | 2023 OK | 2023 Millwood PG
Hunt is a phenomenal passer, and he made easy plays easier for teammates against Moore.
He can really mail that thing in there, and he identified and dished to cutting teammates with consistency, putting the ball where they could get it in a window to score from close-range.
Kobe Law | 2022 Millwood F
Law scored 11 points in the championship game against Moore to earn MVP honors for the John Nobles Tournament.
He is a gritty scorer, who can finish through contact and put the ball in the hole against a tough Moore defense.
Law also held strong on the defensive side of the ball, helping Millwood to shut down or limit a host of talented scoring forwards on the Lions’ roster.
