ELITE60 Freshman Showcase

Scouting Report by Bilal Benjamin of 1st Love Basketball
Dopfer is a wing that has some sneaky bounce and he for sure woke up a lot of his competition at the Elite60 after he dunked the ball all over a defender. Dopfer played well through contact and didn’t shy away from taking any hits when he drove to the basket. He initiated it well while using it to his advantage to get to his spots or forcing help around the basket. Where Dopfer saw most of his success was from the outside where he buried a lot of three point shots that just looked good every time it left his hands. Fluid release, beautiful rotation on the ball and good arc to go along with all of that. Dopfer is definitely a big time player that’s must see with the skill set that he displayed.

ELITE60 Freshman Showcase – September 24, 2022
This kid attacked the basket with bad intentions. He had the dunk of the day in the all-star game. Once he receives the ball in stride, he’s going to slam the ball home. On top of his athletic displays over the rim, he plays with a high motor that allows him to corral a ton of rebounds. Defensively, he shows flashes of a versatile defender that could eventually defend guards and forwards. A lot to like. by Tony Bruton of BucketReel

William is a post player that stands 6’4 which may be ok for now as he steps out of middle school onto the high school stage. He is really active and brought a lot of energy and effort to the floor. He runs the floor hard, moves well without the ball, and just made plays that contributed to winning possession after possession. He is a strong finisher off the bounce and out of the post, at the cup, and above the rim. He did not play as a traditional PF/C, which showed his versatility on both ends of the floor, and he showed his ability to adapt to any style of play he is in. He is a high-motor player that plays at a high level and is an anchoring force on any squad he finds himself on.   He is really active and brought a lot of energy and effort to the floor.  by Terry J.

Dopfer was easily the most shocking. His athleticism left me in awe and made me want to witness more of his overall game. Dopfer slammed a two handed dunk that lit the gym up. Running the floor is a specialty of his. Dopfer showed flashes of his ability to play on the wing. Those skills will be in constant development throughout high school and he’s only going to get better. With the motor and will he has, there’s no limit. by Bilal Benjamin of 1st Love Basketball
