The footwork for Dybantsa<\/h2>\n

04\/01\/2025 08:35:50 PM<\/span><\/p>\n

AJ Dybantsa gets a ball at full steam, heading downhill, and has the ability to decelerate and euro to the basket. Smooth fishing with wildly impressive body control for a player his size.<\/p>\n

Cayden Boozer is so steady<\/h2>\n

04\/01\/2025 08:27:57 PM<\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout four years of winning at every level, Cayden Boozer has always led with confidence. He is a proven floor raiser for a team, a guy who plays fast and takes care of possessions. He has picked his spots here early, changing pace and using his big frame to finish plays. State championships, Peach Jam championships, gold medals- Boozer has simply won every step of the way. Again, he\u2019s a floor raiser.<\/p>\n

Darryn Peterson brings the crowd to their feet<\/h2>\n

04\/01\/2025 08:21:11 PM<\/span><\/p>\n

Early on in this game, there has been a good bit of sloppy play with quick shots and not much ball movement. However, around the 4:32 mark, the game saw its first highlight as Kansas signee Darryn Peterson flew in for a put back dunk. It was Peterson\u2019s first field goal of the game, and one where you could audibly hear the oohs and the ahhs. Peterson <\/p>\n

AJ Dybantsa starts strong<\/h2>\n

04\/01\/2025 08:17:23 PM<\/span><\/p>\n

The industry\u2019s consensus No. 1 player started the game off with a dunk, AJ Dybantsa followed that up a couple of plays later with a strong rim attack from the right wing. The 6-foot-9 wing is very skilled with a world of upside with his game. He has a unique blend of athletic pop and fluidity with his length and positional size. <\/p>\n
