Who was Hooping? Bryan, Texas Standouts: Finals Edition Part V
BY:Johan Lowe

Paris London III – Big – AAO Flight

Paris was the man in the middle for AAO flight, and he held it down the whole weekend. His motor on the defensive end stood out to me the most, seeming to try to contest every shot around him. He is uber athletic and plays above the rim any chance he gets. He is a dominant and powerful force down low, some times being too much for the defense. He has a little of development to do on the offensive end, but if he puts the work in he can be a highly scouted player.

Kyle Delves – Guard – Team New England

Kyle is one of the two dynamic guards for this Team New England team. He was one of my favorite players to watch this weekend, as he is a walking highlight waiting to happen. On fast breaks, he slams it home with authority showcasing his athleticism. His IQ and playmaking ability sets him apart from other guards on this circuit. He is a flashy player, but does a great job keeping the ball in his team’s possession. He uses his speed very well, alongside having the ball on a string to get away from defenders. His shotmaking ability is also something to note when talking about Kyle’s game.

Ant Vick – Guard – Team New England

Ant is a skilled guard that can’t to any spot on the floor due to his shiftiness and quickness. He has great ball-handling skills to pair with his off the dribble shot creating ability. He is a smaller guard but is not scared to put his head down and get to the rim. He can play either the one or two spot, giving his game a nice touch of versatility that he can be productive with.

Coley Mark – Big – Team New England

Coley Mark is a skilled big man that can play from any spot on the floor. He is dominant in the paint, powering and finishing with easy post touches in the lane. He can play outside of the arc, occasionally knocking down three point jumpers. Out of the post, e makes good passes and really sees the floor well. On the defensive end, Mark does not allow any easy buckets in the paint almost swatting everything he could. Really intriguing player.

Oyinloluwa Adebayo – Forward – Team New England 

Oyinloluwa brings a physical style of play and consistently finds ways to impact the game with his effort around the basket. His ability to finish through contact and create second-chance opportunities makes him a tough matchup inside. He is a physically imposing player, and on the defensive end he uses his strengths well. Adding more range to his offensive game will only make him more difficult to defend at the next level. With his strength and presence in the paint, he has the potential to become a reliable interior force on both ends of the floor.

Zacuras Dawson – Guard – Tre Mann Elite

Playing alongside Aaron Britt Jr., Dawson showed that he is much more than just a complementary piece. Contrary to belief, he is my favorite out of the two, seeming to always pick up or start off for or with Britt. He brings a steady presence at the point guard position and consistently makes winning plays throughout the game. His ability to knock down shots from the outside is like no other, while also getting downhill and finishing at the rim makes him a tough guard to contain. He understands how to control the pace, make the right decisions, and put his team in the best position to succeed.

DeShawn Denson II – Guard – AAO Flight

Denson II put together an impressive weekend and showed why he’s one of the top guards on the circuit. Denson was believed to be dealing with a foot injury, but still averaged 13.5 points continuing to make an impact. He used his size and athleticism to create scoring opportunities while making plays for his teammates. Denson’s ability to score, facilitate, and defend at a high level stood out, gaining some attention from to Division I schools after the weekend.
