#HustleInTheRockies brought out all types of talent in our 15U division, so much so that trying to narrow it down to 5 to make an all-tournament team was a lot of work. We had plenty of kids come out and showcase their skills, and we narrowed it down to five. Ladavian King- Team Revenge 15’s […]
– Fever – 23’ McCurnin was lights out for the Fever, dropping 13+ points in each of his games on Saturday. He proved that he can get three point shots shots off quickly due to his footwork speed. His shot speed helped him out mightily when coming off weakside actions, where he was able to […]

– PLUTO Prospects (pictured above) Howery is currently slated as the fifth player in the state, which given his team’s track record this weekend would check out. Howery is true point guard who does a little bit of everything. He has great vision, whether he is finding a baseline cutter or a rolling big man, […]

Here are my top 17U guards.: | 5’10″ PG | PSB | Mead High School Knudsen is a very talented point guard with explosive ability. When I say explosive ability I mean he can change the […]

The #PHHustleintherockies tournament has been action-packed and continues throughout the afternoon Saturday and into Sunday of this July 4th holiday weekend.
