As an added bonus, all games were live-streamed on the 7outz Network and are currently available on the network. The available film study provided me with an opportunity to evaluate many more prospects. Lot of guys helped their rankings with their play at the event. In this article, we take a look at some of the top Stockrisers from the event.
When I spoke with Chambers during my season preview of Legacy, he discussed wanted to be known as more than a shooter. I think he accomplished that this weekend. Not only did I like his activity on the defensive end, but he also showed that he can shoot the ball in a variety of ways, making some pull ups and other shots off the bounce.
Farrimon’s body was probably the biggest storyline of the event. He lost over 40lbs since last season and he looks terrific. He was always highly skilled, and now with the weight lose he’s moving a lot better. He shot the ball well, but what was improved was his playmaking, as the lefty showed the ability to get downhill, drawing defenders before hitting teammates with on time, on target passes.
Thought “Guada” showed a lot of Alpha tendancies. He was un-afraid to handle the ball against pressure, and did a good job of setting up teammates. He fell a bit in the rankings simply because I hadn’t seen him a ton. However, after checking in on him a few times recently, a few things have been verified. His on ball defense is elite, and he does a better job than I though of creating for others. He did both on Saturday.
The Big E has an unorthodox game, however it was very effective. He provided production by running the floor and rebounding the basketball and showed flashes of offensive improvment. Ezidiegwu, knocked down several pick and pop shots from about 18 feet out, a skill I hadn’t seen from him before.
Look for Burney to get a bump in the rankings after a strong showing. His overall skill level looked improved as he showed some wiggle and the ability to use combo moves to create shots for himself. He should have an opportunity to have a productive season for the Bulldogs.
Highlights
Good performance from Natale. He’s always looked the part, but thought he showed some solid skill, especially when shooting the basketball. Along with his shooting his ability to move fluidly also jumped off the film.
