Chriss, Young and Collins lauded

From ESPN's Joel Francisco after the Pangos event this past weekend:
Oozing With Potential
Marquese Chriss (Sacramento, Calif./Pleasant Grove)
2015, PF, 6-8, 200
Club Team: Nor Cal Wildcats
Status: He will be a Pac-12 priority sooner rather than later.
Chriss has developed nicely since I last saw him in November. The willowy hybrid 4-man has trampoline-like bounce, good hands and can even nail the occasional jump shot. His timing is impeccable in the areas of blocking shots and rebounding. His offensive game (especially on the blocks) and fundamentals are raw, but his ceiling is impressive

+++++


Beast Status
Solomon Young (Sacramento, Calif./Sacramento)

2016, PF, 6-6, 225
Club Team: Nor Cal Wildcats
Although Young is only a frosh, he already possesses a beastly frame. He has long arms, huge hands, size-18 feet and an excellent motor. He can knock down the elbow jump shot, but his strength is drop stepping his opponent over his left shoulder and converting.

+++++


Best Shooters
Armani Collins (San Francisco/Stuart Hall)

2015, SG, 6-4, 175
Club Team: Nor Cal Wildcats
Collins also has that frame and long arms that college coaches covet, and his jump-shooting stroke is feathery. He is best off the catch and his release is smooth, but he can also pull up in the mid-range area, too. In addition, he plays with purpose at both ends to help his team win.
