A couple of tidbits from ESPN on the Swish-N-Dish...

There were a few players who have noticeably improved since last summer. A couple at the top of that list are Tyler Cook and Kostas Antetokounmpo. Cook has changed his body and is much more sculpted and toned. He has also added the ability to face up and attack the basket from 17 feet and in. He is much more athletic and explosive and is now the thunder for his travel team (Jayson Tatum would be the lightning in this relationship).

The best player at the event in 6-foot-8 2016 SF Jayson Tatum. Tatum showed all the skills that have lead him to be a consensus top three player in the country. He is long, skilled, athletic and smooth. He was great, but there were a few other standouts like newly committed Derek Funderburk (Ohio State), who has become much more productive with his long and angular frame. Charlie Moore is a super quick scoring PG. Big-bodied Nick Ward is a beast on the low block, and Xavier Simpson is a super cerebral and tough point guard.
