Notes
- Buy Stock Now: SSA Elite 2022 6’5 Forward Brady Klotz Brady Klotz 6'4" | SF Royal Valley | 2022 State KS of Royal Valley Klotz has been on a tear this spring showing off the versatility with his finishing in the paint on hard rolls, passing in the mid post, and smooth stroke from the perimeter, with his highlight performance of the weekend being a 16 point, 6 rebound game in a win over Arizona Factory including a top of the key three to help push the game into OT where they came out on top. He capped off his weekend with a monster game clinching dunk in a win over OWE.
- Stepping up and filling in: SSA Elite 2023 Wing/Forward hybrid Kamryn Kaniper Kamryn Kaniper 6'4" | SF Silver Lake | 2023 State KS was big time this weekend playing with the top 16s black group and then filling in due to injury with the 2022 Black group. His activity on both ends of the floor has been off the charts this spring, and over the week he had 3 games of over 5 blocks, including a dunk stopping pin against the glass. His highlight performance came with a 19 point, 6 rebound, 6 block, and 3 steals game in a win for the 2023 Black group over Chapman Basketball Academy.
- Antwaun Massey Antwaun Massey 6'8" | PF Minnesota Prep | 2022 #249 Nation MN is a stud (KC Spurs 2022 Black): The reclassed 2022 6’8 forward who will be going to Minnesota Prep put on a clinic at the rim this weekend, punishing countless rims across the floor. He operates in space so well, and is explosiveness gets him to the rim quick and with purpose. Against the Colorado Chaos over the weekend, he caused Chaos with game changing contests, blocks, and two huge dunks that awoke the whole gym.
- Marcus Meeks and Miles Fant Miles Fant 6'6" | SF Park Hill South | 2022 State MO (Pictured) of 816 Varsity (2022) make a sweet duo: In their own unique version of a fire and ice, the 6’8 Meeks provides a ton of versatility with his perimeter skills and ability to play more of a traditional 4 in spots while the 6’7 Fant has a great back to the basket and screen and roll game. These guys playing together make 816 Varsity a tough cover in the front court. Both of these guys can interchange with one another as well, and Fant showed pick and pop ability too, drilling a nice long range bomb off a pop. Meek’s ability to take multiple different types of defenders off the bounce sets him a part as well.
