He is an uber athlete that has a lot of skills in his arsenal especially offensively. When scoring the ball, he can create offense for himself in and out of the perimeter displaying three level versatility at 6'6. Kenan can get on a roll quickly if defenders don't play tight on him, allowing him to get comfortable. Throughout the tournament he rebounded at an elite level against the Shooters HQ 2028 Black. I was impressed with how well he pushed the ball after collecting rebounds creating transition opportunities for his teammates. I look forward to seeing where Kenan's progression will go in the future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2686372"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2871750,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68368b59f2404"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2686372' first='Aiden' last='Olivarez'] the 2027 guard out of San Antonio is a strong guard that is a threat offensively that's active defensively as well. Offensively he knocks down perimeter shots, finishes at the rim with both hands and can create separation from defenders on all three levels. Aiden had flashes of playmaking in the Be Someone 16U offense in the pick &amp; roll, transition and half sets showing he can contribute in different ways. Defensively he has quick hands poking the ball out of opposing ball handler's possession. He competes very well on the defensive end of the floor using his athleticism to make chase down blocks. Aiden is a good on ball defender that plays without reaching in much.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":2871752,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='2872665' first='Jamison' last='Crawford'] ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Cypress Ranch High School","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"Be Someone Elite 16U","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68368b59f24b2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2872665' first='Jamison' last='Crawford'] really excelled at being a sharpshooter this weekend at the Grind Region Finals. In the game I watched him play against the Midtown Basketball Club 16U Blue Reign. He hit multiple threes off the catch with accuracy. His mechanics on his shot form were well put together with almost every shot he took on the perimeter. With the ball in his hands, he has good security with a comfortable handle. In transition Jamison ran well resulting in him getting easy opportunities at the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2053545"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68368b59f250d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Reed Hellman has a nice handle on the ball for his position playing wing/power forward throughout the tournament making plays for himself and others off defensive rebounds. He handled the ball like a guard at times against 1 Nation 16U going coast to coast using his physical frame to carve out room in the paint. Reed had a nice touch around the basket finishing plays by shielding defenders positioning himself for good looks. His effort rebounding the basketball was evident. Reed Hellman is a very skilled big man that I think can fit well into a forward position comfortably.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2388464"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2871755,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68368b59f25a5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Javaris Williamson's first half production off the bench was very beneficial to the teams winning, giving them a huge boost, scoring on all three levels. He was on a huge streak offensively helping with the huge lead against 1 Nation 16U. When playing defense, he keeps his hands active at that end of the floor getting his hands on steals. His athleticism was used to make hustle plays, which was very impressive as well. With his play he was one of the top bench players I saw at the tournament.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

It was a full day of hoops at the Grind Region Finals Saturday starting early with many players playing competitively. In part one of this article, I will be going over five players that caught my eye early Saturday.
