MINI FILM BREAKDOWN:
– Range on jumper that extends well beyond the arc
– Can use an effective pump fake to free himself for clean looks
– Hustles back on defense and makes hustle plays on the defensive end in half court sets – understands help defense
– Has underestimated strength that he uses on the dribble drive and when finishing
Cole Pardon Cole Pardon 6'5" | SF Brandon | 2021 State MI (2021, G/F, Brandon High School)
MINI FILM BREAKDOWN:
– He can attack the rim and finish with either hand
– He’s a true mid range threat with the pass, jumper and a floater
– Moves without the ball and works for shots – comes off screens tight and pass ready
– Seems to really like to attack and do his work from the left corner
Clayton Roberts III Clayton Roberts III 6'4" | SG Grand Rapids Angels | 2021 State MI (2021, G/F, Grand Rapids Angels)
MINI FILM BREAKDOWN:
– He’s comfortable working out of the post where he can pass or finish
– Can attack the rim with either hand
– He’s a tough finisher in traffic
– Has some hip movement that he can shake defenders with
Kareem Rozier (2022, G, Orchard Lake St. Mary’s)
MINI FILM BREAKDOWN:
– Playmaker and difference maker on defense – forces turnovers and wins hustle points
– He’s a multi level scorer
– Tremendous no look dish pass to cutting teammates
– Plays the game with heart and intensity – D1’s don’t pass because of height (see Wendell Green Jr.)
