Wiggins Elite Grade 11 Prep National Senior Circuit Team Analysis December 12-14, 2025

Style of Play:

Wiggins Elite Grade 11 Prep is a team that has a balance between playing fast and running half-court sets to get good looks. When they play fast in transition, they have the ball-handlers to push the pace and get easy looks at the rim or get players leaking out for high-percentage shots. Whoever grabs the rebound or forces the turnovers has the leeway to bring the ball up and operate as a ball-handler. They try to score quickly before the opposing team's defense can set up. In the half-court, they have a free-flowing type of offense. They have many shooters on the team that they free up running off-ball screens and pindowns. To free up cutters, they run back screens to get them to the rim and into the open space in the paint. In this type of action, they have lob threats with good hands and athletes who can finish above the rim.

On the defensive end, they run an aggressive full-court press, speed the other team up, and force turnovers allowing them to create offense from their defense. This is the focal point of their defensive plan and their defensive identity. Opposing teams they have faced don't have the personnel to break the press by executing multiple passes and getting down the floor quickly.

Hunter Salo's main skill is shooting threes in catch and shoot situations. He can initiate his own off-ball movement and operate in teammate-initiated off-ball movement. He moves well along the three-point line and is constantly moving, which makes it exhausting for defenders to chase him and helps him find open space. He comes around pindowns and off-ball screens to get to his spots for high-percentage catch and shoot three-pointers. In the open court, he operates as a catch and shoot pull-up three-point shooter. He has a quick release and fluid shooting mechanics. He can at times shoot threes off the dribble after using a shot fake to get the defender up in the air and get into a step-back three. With the amount of threes he takes, he spaces the floor for teammates to operate inside. His secondary offense is attacking in transition as a ball-handler and getting to the rim.

On defense, he gets into passing lanes creating offense from his defense. He is vital on traps and full-court pressure allowing him to execute the heavy press his team runs.

Team: Wiggins Elite Grade 11 Prep

Circuit: National Senior Circuit

Class: 2028

Uncommitted

Isaiah O'Donnell operates on leak-outs in transition being quick, explosive, and filling the lanes well. In the half-court, he is one of the team's primary cutting options and the main option for running back screens to get cuts to the rim. He is a lob threat and an athletic above the rim finisher for his size. He is more of an inside player than a perimeter player, but when he operates on catch and shoot three-pointers, he is best as a corner shooter. When attacking closeouts, it is more for him to set up his teammates cutting to the rim with a dump-off pass rather than for him to score. He is at his best when someone is creating for him and is limited when it comes to creating his own offense off the dribble.

On the defensive end, he has length and is vital in the full-court press forcing turnovers and allowing his team to create offense from their defense. He is vocal on the court and communicates with his teammates. He picks up from the backcourt and applies pressure on the ball-handler making it hard for them to advance the ball. In one on one isolation situations, he moves his feet well laterally and doesn't get blown by.
