By: Sean Halloran 6’4 2023 Brock Rose (Team Synergy 2023 16u)Rose was arguably the best player I watched throughout the entire weekend. A forward with great size, quick and has the ability to break his defenders do off the dribble. Rose showed that he is a three-level scorer this weekend, displaying that he can finish inside, has a great mid-range game, and can shoot it from deep. Rose is...

By: Heath Gulledge 2027 Colt Fowler (Upward Stars Fowler) He might not be the biggest guy on the court but he sure plays like it. Fowler is a crafty point guard with skill well beyond his years.

Fowler knows how to get crafty in the...
