NY2LA Swish N Dish

Riley LaChance – 2014 – G – Ray Allen Select: This young man had a great tourney. For his slender build he plays very strong. He uses his body extremely well. He stroked the ball well from 3 and creates shots from mid range. He missed some big FT’s, but that’s the only weakness I could find.

Casey Schlatter – 2014 – F- Iowa Barnstormers: With teammate and future UNI Panther, Wyatt Lohaus, under the weather it was clear that Schlatter was the one who picked up the slack. He was doing it inside and out. He is extremely long and deceivingly quick. When he shows the toughness and aggressiveness that he demonstrated this weekend the sky is the limit.

Tyler Ulis – 2014 PG Meanstreets – He makes up for his lack of size with his quickness and handles. He’s a great passer and sees the floor extremely well. He finds ways to score whether it be a great step back or his ability to shoot it from deep.

Malek Harris – 2014 -SF – IIllinois Wolves – Much more polished than last summer. He has the ability to score with back to basket or facing up from mid range. He may blow up in April.

Jalen Brunson – 2015 – PG – Mac Irvin Fire – This young man came to play. He made big shot after big shot. He showed great range and the ability to score at the rim. IMO he will rise towards the top of Class 2015.

Kyle Haber – 2014 – SG – Iowa Barnstormers – He was a double digit scorer in every game. He hit the 3 ball and put it on the floor. Needs to continue to get stronger and put on some weight. His stroke seemed to be a little quicker than last summer.

A couple younger kids that improved their stock.

Fred Sims – 2015 – G – Illinois Elite
