I got a hands-on look at all of these high-level athletes. Look for their stock to continue to rise after some very impressive performances!
Kevin Wiltz II Kevin Wiltz II 6'2" | SG Breaux Bridge | 2022 State LA 2022- Breaux Bridge High School
Kevin is a lanky combo guard who is very skilled with the basketball. I was impressed with his pairing of size, speed, and ability to fluidly drive and attack the rim. He is also a good playmaker; he is skilled at putting passes through tight windows and is a good decision-maker in the pick and roll. He is a good finisher around the rim with both hands and puts a lot of pressure on the defense in the paint. He is a capable shooter from beyond the arc and in the midrange as well, but I would like to see him take more shots in the midrange and work on his floater in traffic.
Evan Savoy Evan Savoy 5'7" | PG St. Thomas More | 2022 State LA 2022- St. Thomas More High School, Lafayette
Evan is an intelligent combo guard who can knock down shots all around the arc. He is a deadly shooter when paired with a teammate who puts pressure on the defense at the rim. He can be used as a real weapon on the offensive end with his shooting ability. I was impressed with his ability to make the right reads and with his off-ball movement. He is great at cutting without the ball and finding weak spots in the defense. I would like him to work on his ability to set up his teammates and putting the pressure on the defense as a playmaker.
Jawarren Cade Jawarren Cade 6'2" | CG Many | 2022 State LA 2022 Many High School
Jawarren is a lank aggressive combo guard. He is great on ball defender who is not afraid to get into the body of a defender and make him uncomfortable. He is an intelligent passer on the pick and roll, he manipulated defenses very will in those sets. He has a soft touch in the paint at the rim and has a floater he is comfortable with. He is a good shooter from beyond the arc, but his mechanics need work. I would like to see him raise his release point a bit. The energy he provides on both ends is a coveted trait at the next level, this is a prospect to keep your eye on.
Channing Arvie Channing Arvie 6'1" | SG JS Clark Leadership | 2022 State LA 2022- JS Clark Leadership Academy
Channing is a sharpshooting combo guard who moves well without the basketball. He is great at always staying ready and has a quick release. I would like to see him raise the starting point of his jumper; however, it goes in at a high clip already. He is a strong defender who can defend high level wings as well. He is a patient scorer; he plays at his own pace and does not get sped up by intense defense. He has the perfect blend of athleticism and shooting that coaches are looking for at the next level to become a three and d type player.
