Raheem Ruto | 6’3 G/F | Minnesota Hoopers 2024
Ruto is a very vocal leader on defense. Even on the bench was encouraging and communicating defensively for his teammates. Did a great job guarding a kid who probably had 6 or 8 inches on him. Shot the 3 at a high clip and ran the roll man well in pick and roll situations.
Mason Parker (2025) | 5’10 G | Michigan Goonies 2024
Parker is a very smooth and slithery finisher in traffic. Very confident shooter who has the ball on a string. Can finish with both hands very well. Had a very nice behind the head pass to a teammate for an and-1.
Jalen McClendon | 6’2 G | Team Tru 2024
McClendon gets after it on the defensive end. He’s trapping, getting steals, always aware of where to be, helping, you name it he’s doing it. He runs the floor well on the offensive end and isn’t afraid to give it up when its the correct play.
Bernard McHerron Jr. | 6’1 G | Road 2 Greatness 2024
McHerron is a Lighting a quick guard with the ball on a string Has proven he can get to the rim and stroke it from the outside. Dumped it off to the open man when teammates were open.
Nehemiah Fowlkes | 5’11 G | Team EVOL 2024
Nehemiah was another lighting quick and shifty guard. He excels with the ball in his hand and has defenders on their toes with how well he changes the pace with the ball. He dishes it to the open man if the shot he wants isn’t there.
