He’s got an impressive blend of size and athleticism, and can defend effectively on the perimeter as well as on the block. He is averaging 12.2 points and 6.2 rebounds on the circuit.

CHALI TAYLOR, TRAILBLAZERS ELITE

The Sidwell Friends (DC) product was consistent all weekend, opening with 13 points and 11 rebounds in a 48-32 win over Maryland Movement Red, and following it with 14 points and 9 boards in a 57-35 win over Impact.
