Scott, Freeman Headline Elite 14 Showcase Stock Boosters

The Elite 14 has grown into a national spotlighted event that HS teams, media and college coaches from all over the country mark in their calendars to attend.   See why Alan Branch thinks Sam Freeman could blow up, meanwhile several players put themselves in a good spot on Saturday and may see a rise in their stock.

Braelon Seals, 2020 G – SA Wagner: Long, skilled  guard that plays with a good feel and possess ability to score off the bounce. A smooth offensive player that continued to make plays on Saturday which lead to a solid full stat line on Saturday.

Jalen Roberts 2019 PG – Lancaster: Attacking, heady guard that knifed his way through the defense. Jalen scored an easy 11 points in Lancaster’s win against Hirshi as he constantly put pressure on the defense and scored in a variety of ways. A guard prospect that has a chance in seeing his name in our TBB top 75 in the 2019 class.

Jaquan Scott, 2020 PF – Mansfield Timberview: Scott plays his role very well for Timberview as he blocks shots, rebounds and finishes inside. His length bothered opposing big men and is cementing himself as a top 25 player in the state of Texas.

Chris Baguma, 2018 SF- CYM: Baguma unloaded the full repertoire on Saturday as he has shown improvement as a player on the perimeter. He plays with a good feel, rebounds, defends and plays with a edge to him that translates. A no brainer stock booster.

Garren Davis, 2019 CG – The Colony: There weren’t many hurdles in Davis’ path to the basket as he finished through contact and embraced physicality. Davis averaged 11 pts, 4 rebounds and 4 assists on Saturday and is a guard the staff will keep their eye on.

Trezarin White, 2019 Wing – Mansfield Timberview: Flying is the best word to describe what White was doing at the Elite 14 as he soared on the boards, finished above the rim and had a highlighted two handed block. White did himself a favor this Saturday and he mixes his strong athleticism with a very solid skill- set.

Sam Freeman, 2019 C – Justin Northwest: Freeman’s play put him in another category with the staff and Alan Branch as he rebounded, blocked shots and cleaned up everything in his area. Sam is making a hard push cracking the top 20 in our 2018 prospect database. Alan Branch said “Sam Freeman has located the switch, now can he find his way back to it everyday”. “You can’t teach size, size just has to want to”
