Jordan

Jasper

Jordan excels in the open court playing downhill and finishing above the rim in transition. Has a great basketball build and can play both the 1 and 2 and is capable of guarding multiple positions on D. What stood out the most that will move him onto more college boards this Fall was his on ball Defense. When locked in he can really disrupt the ballhandler by applying constant pressure without giving up straight line drives. Scholarship level athlete and defender that will only get better. If he shows he can knock down the 3 at a higher % he will be a steal. Great fit in up-tempo systems that switch on D, pressure the ball and look to score early.

*Projected Levels: D1 JUCO / NAIA+ programs should add him to their list of Recruits to track.

Kailand

Johnson

Kailand is a Tough Matchup with the Versatility to play the 2-4 Spots on Offense, and the skill set to lead the fast break like an old school Point Forward. High IQ Prospect with a College Ready Body, and plays physical in the paint. Really skilled passer with excellent court vision, especially in transition when pushing it after securing the Defensive Rebound. Understands when to pass or shoot it after getting in the Paint, and is a Deceptive Athlete that has the lateral quickness and agility to guard the 1-4 spots on Defense. Battled Injuries Late which limited his Recruitment and effectiveness, but the tools, talent and Size are there that translate to the Next Level.

Winston

Jones

Long athletic tweener with a high ceiling and nice upside. Really good instincts on help D, pursues boards, and runs the floor like a guard. Needs to continue to improve his overall skill set, but is a college level rebounder and defender with length and athleticism that translates to the next level. Could use 2 years at a JC to reach his full potential but nonetheless, a solid tweener at the small college levels with his best ball in front of him.

Jace

Jones

Jace has all the tools you look for in wings and showcased a high motor that indicates he will continue to grow. Brings all the intangibles to be a long-term prospect; has great size for a wing, good length, and plays with great energy. Excels in the open court going downhill and a quick first step in the HC to get to and finishes plays in the paint. Also, showcased the strength to handle contact and maintain straight-line drives against pressure. Has been shooting it better than I originally thought which is increasing his stock (42% from the 3pt line) Jace is also capable of guarding the 1-4 spots with his length, versatility and effort. Could use 2 years of JC to continue to progress his overall offensive game and get stronger but regardless a college level guard who will end up with an "Offer".

Elijahwuan

Jones

Eli Scores it at all 3 Levels, has Scholarship Level Size and Athleticism, and has had to Carry a Big Load this Year, but has done just that by Securing a Playoff Spot and Surpassing 1000 Points in the Final Game of the Season. Was Newcomer of the Year his Junior Year, and His Game has Grown in all Facets leading Churchill in PPG, RPG & SPG and Leading his Team into the Playoffs. Love this Kid's Upside and How He's Handled the Responsibility in the Ups and Downs this Past Year and never Waivered with his Team First Approach.

Kristopher

Jones

Kris Jones 6’3 is versatile 2 guard with size that showcased in the Houston camp that he is much more than a shooter. I’ve had Kris at a previous event and thought he was a 3pt specialist. The other thing that stood out to me more than his skill set and shot making ability was his “Will” to win which moved him up a notch. Played hard throughout the camp and competed at a very high level without the ball in his hands. Typical coaches son that understands how to play the game and plays it the right way. He stepped it up a notch in Houston and showed some toughness on the glass and on D which should only move him up boards his Sr Season. Playing in an under recruited STX Region but playing scholarship level basketball. Recently hit 11 3's scoring 51 points that moved him into the 1,000 point club.

Kevin

Juarez

A forward that actually plays big, seeks out contact, and engages in the paint. Great fit in a High Low motion offense where you interchange the 4 and 5 and set ball screens. Kevin seals down low and uses his IQ and strength to score over bigger players when he’s on the block, or can face up bigs in the HP and is capable of putting it on the floor or hitting the open 3. College Ready Rebounder and deceptive athlete that is moving up the Ranks in the Houston Area one week at a time. Pasadena gets lost in the numbers game in Houston, but big Kevin will eventually stand out and get his recognition down the stretch once more coaches start researching this kid. Tough minded SF that play inside and out and was Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year in his District.

Jak

Kinder

There are Players that have that 'IT' factor and Jak has it. Plays with tremendous confidence, makes teams pay when they help off him, and if they run him off the line he is more then capable of making plays off the bounce. Moves extremely well without the ball, gets to his Spots, and Stay Shot Ready so You Can't Lose him Off the Ball or he Will Make Teams Pay!

Kristofers

Kriviss

I’ve worked with and evaluated a lot of ‘Top Prospects’ who in the past few weeks have accepted Offers at solid NCAA D3/NAIA Programs that are at the same level talent wise as Kristofers. Crafty scorer who scores it at all 3 levels, has a high basketball IQ, strong in the paint both on the boards and finishing through contact, and has a nice feel for the game. No brainer for NCAA D3 Programs position aside as he has a college Ready Body, Skill Set, and toughness to make his way onto the court his freshmen year at that level. Has picked up 2 NJCAA D3 Offers, now has genuine interest from the D2 JUCO Coaches that worked my camp, and has visits lined up at NCAA D3 Programs so his recruitment is finally starting to pickup.

Has had a Breakthrough Sr Season on both Ends and Heads Down the Stretch averaging a Double Double from the Guard Position.

Donovan

Lee

Donovan’s is having a breakthrough Season after a big Fall at Austin Westlake where he has played both the 1 and 2 Spots. Efficient on Offense, Competes on Defense, and plays to his strengths so makes a lot of winning plays without making mistakes. High % 3pt Shooter, who does a great job in creating space in catch and shoot situations to get his shot off. Not a lot of flash, just produces on Offense and is assigned to guard the best Guard on the other Team so Impacts the Game on Both Ends of the Floor.

James

Livingston

PG that plays with a chip, has a good basketball build, and is at his best creating shots for himself or his teammates when attacking the paint. Has excellent court vision and makes the right play in transition with the ball in his hands. Active Defender who gets his hands on a lot of balls, turns defense into offense by anticipating and playing the passing lanes well, and competes at a high level. Stood out in the Winning Ways Competition when it’s all about what you do without the ball in your hands that leads to wins. James Rebounded, got all the 50/50 balls, and out worked the other guards throughout the Day.
