2022 Player To Watch: Leland Walker Leland Walker 5'11" | PG North Central | 2022 VA
Walker’s stock has been on the rise throughout the spring as he has looked very good for Team Teague thus far this year. The shifty guard has the speed and quickness to beat anyone off the dribble and score with ease. Leland already holds 13 offers including ones from Purdue, Xavier, and Providence among others. Look for Walker to put his talents on full display on Saturday.
2023 / 2024 Player To Watch: Logan Imes Logan Imes 6'4" | PG Zionsville | 2023 State #202 Nation IN
Imes is a bigger point guard who can really do it all and do it well. He has the size and skill to compete at a very high level, and he has heard from Indiana, Evansville, Florida Atlantic, and Western Michigan in the last week. Look for Imes to impress tons of coaches this weekend and have many more offers slide his way.
One Player We Need To See More: Clay Butler Clay Butler 6'1" | PG Ben Davis | 2023 State IN
Butler is a guy that we haven’t gotten to see much of, but he was the Giants’ second-leading scorer behind Jayden Brewer Jayden Brewer 6'5" | SF Ben Davis | 2021 State IN this past season. He averaged over 11 per game, and he will have a real chance to make an impact in front of some college coaches to kick start an important season for him. Butler should also be the top scoring option for Ben Davis next season, so this is a real chance for him to get his name out to some coaches before the summer season of AAU.
Session 2
Name | HT | POS | Class | HS |
JaQaulon Robert |
6’8″ | SF | 2023 | Bloomington North |
Elijah Mattingly Elijah Mattingly 6'6" | SF Central Christian Academy | 2022 State IN | 6’6″ | SF | 2022 | Central Christian |
Ian Raasch | 6’5″ | SF | 2023 | Northwood |
A.J. Lux A.J. Lux 6'3" | SG Crown Point | 2023 State IN | 6’4″ | PG | 2023 | Crown Point |
Richard Brooks Richard Brooks 6'3" | SF Mishawaka Marian | 2022 State IN | 6’2″ | SF | 2022 | Mishawaka Marian |
Willie Miller Willie Miller 6'2" | PG Lake Station | 2023 State IN | 6’2″ | PG | 2023 | Lake Station Edison |
Jaylen Mullen Jaylen Mullen 6'0" | PG North Daviess | 2023 State IN | 6’0″ | PG | 2023 | North Daviess |
Logan McIntire Logan McIntire 6'4" | SG North Harrison | 2022 State IN | 6’4″ | SG | 2022 | North Harrison |
Branden Northern Branden Northern 5'11" | PG Silver Creek | 2022 State IN | 6’0″ | PG | 2022 | Silver Creek |
Gabe Trevino Gabe Trevino 5'10" | PG Eastside | 2022 IN | 5’11″ | PG | 2022 | Eastside |
2022 Player To Watch: Branden Northern Branden Northern 5'11" | PG Silver Creek | 2022 State IN
Northern has been a very good lead guard for a powerhouse Silver Creek team over the last two seasons. However, with Jacobi and Kaufman gone, Northern will be thrust into the leading scorer role in the coming season. He has the ability to fill that role, but this will be a great chance to show coaches what he can do prior to that.
2023 / 2024 Player To Watch: JaQualon Roberts JaQualon Roberts 6'8" | PF Bloomington North | 2023 State IN
Roberts really had a busy week as coaches from all over the country were reaching out to talk to him. He already received offers from IUPUI and Northern Illinois, and I would expect those high major offers to be coming sooner rather than later. This will be a big chance to impress a ton of college coaches, and I expect him to take full advantage.
One Player We Need To See More: Jaylen Mullen Jaylen Mullen 6'0" | PG North Daviess | 2023 State IN
Mullen is a smaller guard who uses his quickness to make plays. He had a very good season for North Daviess this past season, but when I have seen him in AAU, nothing has really stood out. I know he has the skill and the ability, so we just need to see him put it all together on the court.
