Chicago Summer Jam: Friday Standouts

Jimmy Pajauskas (Big 3 Shah)

Pajauskas was impressive to start the tournament off. Smooth guard who scored at the basket and from 3. Nice height and length as a guard which helped him get steals. One of the better playmakers as well having 6 assists.

Tyler March (Big 3 Shah)

March is a big to get to know in the 2024 class. Showed flashes off athleticism while consistently knocking down the 3. Aggressive rebounder, using that to be a break starter, advancing the ball to get into transition.

Chris Taylor (Illinois Jaguars)

Don’t let the size fool you, Taylor was able to get to the basket pretty easily, and create for others. Controlled the offense and played with a motor. He had 10 points in the loss.

Max Haack (Mercury Elite)

Haack showed he’s one of the better shooters in the tournament. Has tremendous range on his shot. Feisty defensively.

Brendan Molis (Big 3 Hudson)

Molis was a 3 level scoring machine in the win over Ignite. Got started off hot from 3, shooting well with his feet set, and then in transition catching and finishing. Nice midrange shot as well.

Liam Taylor (Big 3 Hudson)

Taylor is a wiry wing who excelled getting tot he basket with his long strides. Can see the defense potential, because of long frame.

Trevon Roots (Brook Town Force)

Roots is a big colleges should be looking at this year. 6’6, long, and athletic, using that to his advantage by blocking shots, and finishing with big time dunks. He will be on breakout player watch this season.

Damon Davis (Brook Town Force)

Davis is playing up on 17 u this summer. Much like his brother he is so smooth getting to the basket. He is so good in transition finishing through contact. Also showed he can knock down the 3. Another piece for the dolphins.
