2021 power forward Trey Kaufman has received an offer from North Carolina. Over the years, the Tar Heels have offered many Indiana natives with players like Tyler Zeller, Sean May, and Eric Montross playing at UNC.
So far this summer, Indiana Basketball Source has watched Team Teague 2022 in five games against strong competition. Those evaluation games have given Indiana Basketball Source a strong feel for each player on Team Teague's roster. Here's a player by player look at Team Teague. (Pictured: Pete Suder)
Rasheed Jones - 6-4 - SG - Marion (IN) HS - Level: Mid-Major Plus
Offers: New Orleans
Best offensive role: Spot-up shooting
Best defensive role: Anticipation
Notes: A lanky guard, Jones made major strides as a shooter during his soph year. He shot 42% on 173 threes. He backed his three-point shooting with his FT shooting. He's a good but not great shooter. With Team Teague, he has excelled with Leland Walker and Reggie Bass creating shots for him. He's not breaking down defenders off the dribble at this point. He'll mix in transition baskets and attack the occasional closeout, but most of his scoring comes from spot-up opportunities.
2021 forward/center LT Hatton couldn't miss against Belmont Shore in the Terrific 24. In the tournament, he proved that he is one of best shooting front court players in the nation.
On Saturday, Blackford's Luke Brown committed to Stetson University. The commitment was a surprise as Brown had plenty of scholarship offers with many of them in the Midwest. Instead, Brown is headed to Florida to play in the ASUN for Donnie Jones.
So far this July, Indiana Basketball Source has been able to track six Indy Heat 16U games. The team is filled with D1 prospects as seven players on the roster already have D1 offers. Here's a look at each player's game and projection.
Notes: Lefty, 6-4/6-5 forward. Leeper has been a good spot-up shooter for Indy Heat. He doesn't create his own shot but is a good shooter. He will score in transition and attack close outs as well. He's been an active defender that can block shots and play the passing lanes around the paint for Indy Heat. His versatility has been impressive even in limited minutes. He would be a great small college player with the upside to be a D1 player.
