The 7-foot center from Team Curry showed off an array of moves in the low blocks that allowed him to be right at the rim and score effortlessly in the paint. He was one of the best post players in the field throughout the Bob Gibbons Tournament of Champions. McKey has good footwork and moves well up and down the floor. Because of his length, his natural ability to block and change shots shined through, too. - Justin Young
Kendrick is every bit of 6’7-6’8 with good defensive instincts. The big man from AE5 Florida has the ability to slide his feet and stay disciplined and not bite on shot fakes is a lost art. Preston continuously blocked and altered shots all night long. - Josh Lane
Cooper brings tremendous value to the wing position with his ball skills, shot-making ability, and defensive versatility. Cooper scored a game-high 19 points in an Atlanta Xpress win. He embodies everything coaches want at the next level, and I expect his recruitment to take off soon. - Mekhi Mckinney
You could count on him to be a problem from the wing as a shot-maker (he fired it in from three on average three times a game). Maxon is a nice mixture of scoring, creating and running the offense for this high-octane Florida PRO squad. Maxon has been consistently productive this season and that should bode well for him moving into the NCAA Live Period. - Justin Young
One of the reasons why Griffin Elite had such a great showing at the 2024 Bob Gibbons Tournament of Champions was the play of Butler in the backcourt. He was on constant pressure to the paint as a hard driver from the wing to the rim. He wanted to challenge defenders from start to finish and did so with ease. - Justin Young
