The 6-0 lead guard had a fantastic day shooting the ball, showing extended range and a smooth, repeatable release. He can shoot it at a high level both off the dribble or the catch, and he moves well off the ball, finding spaces in the defense to get his shot off with a quick release. He gets great rotation on his shot, which helps some of those front-rim shots get a friendly roll as well. He does a good job using creative footwork to get a few additional inches of space to get his shot off.
PG Carter Kuehl Carter Kuehl 5'11" | PG Bishop Heelan | 2023 State IA (Heelan)
A 5-9 guard who can really shoot it off the catch, Kuehl showed a lightning-quick release and great off-ball movement. I love the way that he runs the floor and gets to the corner in transition, finding the most efficient shots he can. He can also get into the teeth of the defense, using a nice floater game to score above bigger defenders.
SG Mason Gorsh Mason Gorsh 6'2" | SG Ballard | 2023 State IA (Ballard)
Gorsh is a long wing and a very confident shooter, both off the dribble or the catch. If he’s given a few inches of space, he’s going to rise and fire, and it’s going to go in a good amount of the time. He also really stood out on the defensive end of the floor with his vocalness. He was constantly communicating with his teammates, coaching them through screens, telling everyone who they needed to be picking up, etc. He’s a great teammate who was constantly encouraging his teammates, many of whom he has never met before, and his shooting is going to be a major asset for the Bombers this winter.
SF Quinn Walsh Quinn Walsh 6'6" | PF Wahlert Catholic | 2023 State IA (Wahlert Catholic)
A big, 6-5 wing with a physical frame, Walsh showcased a good-looking stroke and the ability to get to the rim, using his physicality to bully his way into the paint and finish through contact at the rim. His shooting opened up the rest of his game, and he keeps the ball high on his release, which, when paired with his size, makes his shot very difficult for a defender to contest. He showed good offensive awareness as well, finding the trail man a few times on the secondary break for easy looks.
SG Andrew Mauro Andrew Mauro 6'1" | SG Dowling Catholic | 2023 State IA (Dowling Catholic)
A 6-1 lefty with a smooth stroke, Mauro moves really well off the ball and was routinely knocking down shots off the catch. He has a quick release and used his high-level shooting to open up the rest of his game, attacking hard closeouts and getting to the bucket, where he did a nice job finishing through contact.
SF Luke Keitges Luke Keitges 6'5" | SF Knoxville | 2023 State IA (Pella)
A big, physical wing who can score from all three levels, Keitges has great touch on his shot and gets excellent rotation on his jumper. He moves well off the ball and does a great job using his bigger frame to open up space to get his shots off. He contributes across the board on the offensive end of the floor, and if he keeps growing, he’ll be a great stretch-4 at the next level.
