Austin Ball Austin Ball 6'7" | SF Miller School | 2023 State #203 Nation VA | Miller School ’23
Ball was one of the better finds at the DMVElite 80. He certainly looks the part but has the game to back it up. Ball is a very good shooter from the perimeter who can also get to the in-between areas and shoot over top. He holds follow-through on makes. One other thing that stood out about Ball is that he has the eye for a good pass.

Holloway will be a difference-maker defensively for Hayfield. He is a strong guard who is very vigilant.
Cameron Kurka | Edison ’23
Kurka is a shooter who knows how to relocate and get open. He is crafty around the basket and mixes in floaters as well. Kurka is an alert team defender. He gets in the gaps, gets deflections, closes out properly, chops his feet, and shows high hands. Kurka also cuts off dribble penetration at the point of attack by sliding his feet.

Offensively, he can play the point guard position as he is a confident ball-handler. Murphy is a solid playmaker in transition who finds the open man. He gets frequent paint touches and finishes through contact.
Mason So Mason So 6'1" | PG DeMatha | 2023 State MD | SSSAS ’23
So has broad shoulders which help him carve out space in close quarters while finishing around the rim. He is very good at getting downhill. So is a lefty, but he is a capable finisher with his right hand. He is very crafty. So gets buckets in multiple ways. He can play with finesse and use the glass but is also strong enough to power through contact.
Brian Weiser | Washington-Liberty ’23
Weiser can cut, can pass, and dribble. He’s mobile, which helps him defensively. Weiser is also very active and alert on that end of the floor.
