GARDEN GROVE, Calif. -- Gerry Freitas put together the most talent-laden So-Cal Hoop Review event in its tenure with 110 teams in attendance. Many of the elite players were on hand including UCLA commit Lonzo Ball, ESPN Super 60 prospects Kendall Small, Stephen Thompson Jr. and Jeremy Hemsley, as well as well as 2017 studs DeAndre Ayton and Cody Riley. Here's a look at the field.

Most upside

Lonzo Ball

2016, PG, 6-foot-5, 185 pounds

Status: Committed to UCLA

Ball is the most physically gifted point guard in the West and quite possibly the country. His passing has some Jason Kidd written all over it and he'll rebound and score from all three levels. However, his on-ball defense needs much work and his shot mechanics (low release) need polishing.

DeAndre Ayton

2017, PF, 6-10, 220 pounds

Status: All major conferences will be involved with him before it’s all said and done

Ayton is a physical specimen with a Kevin Garnett frame. His fundamentals (plays too straight up and down) and post skills (lacks feel with back to the basket) need a lot of work. However, there is no one on the West Coast with his size, athleticism, and overall upside.
