6’2 ’27 Chris Gomez (AWigg Elite)

In a time where so much emphasis is placed on scoring, someone like Gomez is a refreshing change of pace. He’s a tough, rugged guard who consistently impacts the game through his high motor, defensive prowess, and nose for the ball. Gomez is comfortable initiating the offense or finding opportunities as a cutter and finisher around the basket. He’s a willing passer with solid vision and creation ability. That being said, Gomez’s strengths clearly lie within his rebounding, shutdown defense, and ability to fill in the gaps.

6’7 ’27 Zeke Battier (AWigg Elite)

There’s a variety of intriguing prospects on display, and that certainly includes Battier as he continues to steadily progress. He’s a long, floor-spacing forward with solid touch, mobility, and understanding of how to play to his strengths. Battier moves well without the ball, sets up early, and knocks down shots at a high percentage along the perimeter. He’s capable of attacking closeouts and finishing or locating an open teammate. Battier still has upside as a defender and overall athlete.

6’7 ’27 Carlos Marshall (Team CP3)

While others on this roster tend to receive more attention, Marshall shines as an incredibly vital x-factor. He’s a strong, physically overwhelming post player with incredible toughness, rebounding ability, and defensive instincts. Marshall reliably anchors the paint on defense, where he displays excellent timing and an understanding of how to utilize his body. He always seems to be in the right position to make plays, particularly as a help-defender and rebounder, and runs the floor properly in transition. While Marshall doesn’t need touches, he does finish well around the basket.

6’4 ’28 Hunter Gerould (CP3 EYCL)

It doesn’t take long to notice all the ways Gerould impacts a game. He sets the tone with his high motor, calm demeanor, and nonstop involvement in the action on both ends of the floor. Gerould possesses a long, wiry build and impressive explosiveness around the basket. He’s a well-rounded offensive piece who handles the ball, sees the floor as a passer, and scores from all levels. Gerould plays above the rim with relative ease, but can also finish with finesse or through contact. He highlights terrific defensive instincts, both forcing turnovers and shutting down opponents, and is seemingly always in the right position for help/rotations.

6’2 ’29 Colin Kratzer (CP3BA)

In their impressive comeback victory, Kratzer was nothing short of impressive. He’s a long, skilled forward with the ability to post up, space the floor, and attack off the bounce. Kratzer scores the ball in a variety of ways and moves well without the ball to find open space. He’s a quality athlete with nice mobility and the ability to play above the rim. Kratzer blocks shots at a strong rate, runs the floor properly in transition, and passes well for his size/position. Assuming he remains on his current trajectory, Kratzer will be a notable prospect.
