The 6'5" wing did a little bit of everything for his team, not only helping his squad rack up wins with his play, but dominating in the process, using his all-around skillset to his advantage. Tim Samuel, 2017 SF, Texas D1 Houston (TX): Another year, the same story. Division one coaches should be monitoring him. Even though he played most of the weekend out of position, he still affected the outcome of the game and led his team to the Silver Championship. He is an elite rebounder on both ends and can play mulitple positions. He has elite athleticism to go along with a nice looking jumper which he displayed in the mid- range. He had eight dunks in a pool play game on Saturday. Myles Burns, 2018 SF, Mo Taylor Elite (TX): The 6'5" small forward was a human highlight show on the fast break. The offers should start rolling in very soon for the Tompkins High School (TX) prospect. He was knocking down the 3-ball all weekend long and from the 25 foot mark. There wasn't a player in the field with a higher skillset than the European prospect, and he couples that with above-average athleticism, making him a matchup nightmare for opponents. He's an absolute stud and future high-major prospect. Kristian Sjolund, 2018 SF, Shooting Stars (TX): The 6'7" small forward was the star of the tournament. Overall, he was as steady a point guard as we say in the division. He poured in 21 points while doing it from behind the three-point line and when attacking the rim, while also sprinkling in a few mid-range jump shots as well. Solid overall performance on the weekend.ĭarren Woodson, 2018 PG, RL9 (TX): The floor general impressed us with his scoring abilities in one of the pool play games. He showed good footwork and was light on his feet which gave him the ability to guard multiple positions. His overall size made him almost impossible to stop once he got his hands on the ball on the low block. He made a living blocking shots, scoring at the rim and on offensive rebounds. Salomon Smith, 2019 PF, Texas Jazz Elite (TX): The hefty big man was doing most of his damage on the weekend in the painted area. He also showed vocal leadership qualities in the game as well. Kirboris Jeffers, 2018 PG, Texas Elite Warriors (TX): The steady, sure-handed point guard made an impression in the scoring column during a game on Saturday in which he scored 12 points while also making his mark with some nice passing skills. Look for him to continue to build his name this coming AAU season with the reputable Cowboys program. Tyler Hudson, 2018 SF, Houston Cowboys: A smooth scorer at 6'2", the Klein Oak (TX) product was able to get to the rim and finish above and around defenders while also showing off a stroke from the mid-range as well. In games we viewed, he tallied 12 and 18 points, respectively, while showing off an ability to finish on aggressive drives to the rim and on putback opportunities. Jaylen Reed, 2018 SF, TBT Sports Disciples Black (TX): The athletic 6'4" wing was filling up the score sheets on Saturday with his play. In one game that we watched him during pool play, he lit up the scoreboards for 21 points in a variety of ways, while getting to the free-throw line with relative ease. Torrence Hayes, 2018 SG, Shooting Stars Blue (TX): Listed at 5'10", the Morton Ranch (TX) product showed his microwave-scorer capabilities at times throughout the tournament. Texas Inferno takes home 17U Bronze Championship Solid overall performance on the weekend. He made a ton of three-point baskets throughout the weekend, but also showed that he can get to the rim with ease as well. Kyle Pashen, 2018 PG, Shooting Stars White (TX): The 6'3" Katy High School (TX) prospect was a very efficient prospect who showed off his high IQ throughout the tournament. On the defensive end, he not only showed a willingness to compete, but he took pride in getting stops for his team. Tevin Robert, 2018 G, FYN All-Stars (TX): A well-rounded prospect, he scored 13 points in the game we viewed, scoring around the rim while sprinkling in a few shots from the perimeter as well. He takes home MVP honors in the 17U division. He was the catalyst behind his team taking home the Gold Division championship. He was scoring at will on the fast break and knocked down mid-range jumpers with regularity. There weren't many players that were able to stay in front of him as he can get downhill in a hurry. Raylon Gardner, 2018 PG, Texas Jazz Elite (TX): The ultra quick lead guard was putting on a show all weekend long. Check out our cumulative list of standouts from the 17U division over the weekend. Houston, TX (Future150) - The competition was fierce among teams in the rising senior division of the 2017 Future150 Main Event Houston, with Texas Jazz Elite (Gold Champion), Mo Taylor Elite (Silver Champion) & Texas Inferno Black (Bronze Champion) all bringing home titles for their programs.
