to bring energy. He’s a hardworking hustler that swoops in for rebounds and earns second chance opportunities. He’s willing to get on the floor for loose balls and will sacrifice his body for charges. Acosta is a good athlete that can help stretch the floor as a forward and can beat opponents off the dribble to the basket. Around the rim, Acosta has skilled foot work and a nice touch.

can be a mismatch match with his versatile skill set. He’s able to handle the ball up top, play on the wing as a scorer or go inside and earn tough buckets at the rim. On Saturday he was patient with the ball in his hands and would take smaller defenders into the paint before turning around for short jumpers.

Richardson crashes the glass hard and is a reliable rim protector that can also guard on the perimeter. Caleb has three-point range. He’s a stretchy forward that can steal minutes inside or on the wing.

is tough to corral. The lefty scores at all three levels, able to pull-up from the mid-range to get defenders in no man’s land. When his three-point shot is falling, Thornton can be unguardable at stretches. Thornton is a fiery competitor that is known for his talking. Being able to harness his passion and use it as a positive will help him in the future when facing adversity.
