While a player's scoring abilities often are the headlining story, here are players who can take over a game with more than just scoring. 

Joseph Arnold - 2028 - PG - D Rice Elite

Over the past couple of years, Arnold has continued to prove his great ability to distribute the basketball. He is a true point guard who is incredibly elusive with the ball in his hands with his combination of quickness, handles, and change of direction ability. As Arnold has continued to get a ton of paint touches, he has a great ability to create for others on the moves with his passing skills and court vision. 

Blake Basich - 2027 - PG - Pro Lane

In his junior season, Basich was one of the leaders for assists in all of Wisconsin. This was done while averaging 7.4 assists per game for Arrowhead. This only continued into the grassroots with Pro Lane as one of the top facilitators on the NY2LA Association. He is a high IQ point guard who really looks to distribute the ball, has great court vision and is a quick decision maker.  

Kale Graff - 2028 - PG - Wisconsin Legends

While Graff can certainly score the basketball, the point guard is a winning player who can also do a bit of everything else on the floor. Throughout the grassroots season with the Wisconsin Legends truly did it all including running the point and distributing it, being a tough on ball defender, and rebounding extremely well for his position. With his well-rounded game, high IQ player, and energy, Graff does it all and is poised for a breakout junior season with a highly talented De Pere squad. 

Nate Munson - 2027 - PG - Illinois Flight

Munson is the type of player these lists are built for. Whether it has been for Lockport Township or the Illinois Flight, the senior has continued to show his ability to impact a game so much further than scoring. This is highlighted by his ability to be a facilitator and his rebounding. He has consistently been a skilled distributor on the attack with both his vision and passing skills. As well, with toughness, strength, and energy, Munson rebounds so well as a point guard. 

Danny Simon - 2027 - PF - Full Package

As well to standing at 6’7” with a solid build, the power forward is a very skilled passer. During his time with Full Package this year, Simon continuously showed a good ability to create for his teammates being able to make pinpoint passes. From either the low or mid post or out on the perimeter, Simon can really create for others. As well with his passing skills, Simon has great vision too.
