Team takeaways
So Close To What
STRENGTHS
- So Close To What won 63-60 and posted a strong 42.1% overall field-goal rate (24/57), with 45.5% from two-point range (15/33) and 37.5% from three-point range (9/24). This is a productive shooting profile and a solid baseline to preserve.
- The team controlled the glass 44-25 and collected 12 offensive rebounds. #8 led the effort with 10 rebounds and 6 offensive boards, while manraj singh added 8 rebounds and 2 blocks, providing value on second-chance possessions and defensive possessions.
- Contributions were balanced#3 scored 17 points with 4 threes, #4 added 15 points on 6/9 shooting with 6 assists, and the team recorded 16 assists overall. This supporting production should help maintain defensive attention without sacrificing ball movement.
TO WORK ON
- Ball security is the clearest priority20 turnovers compared with Markham's 3, with only 16 assists against 20 giveaways. #034's 4 turnovers and #3's 5 are especially costly. Simplify late-clock reads, use a two-pass touch rule, and reset through timeouts or set actions rather than forcing the offense.
- Free-throw execution was 6/11 (54.5%). Continue creating paint touches, but rehearse a consistent routine and use disciplined closeout technique to avoid unnecessary fouls; even a modest improvement would have covered several of the nine missed attempts.
- Perimeter communication and pressure defense need refinementMarkham generated 19 assists on 24 field goals, while So Close To What recorded only 2 steals and allowed 11. Emphasize help-side awareness, recovery angles, and disciplined closeouts so three-point attempts are contested without leaving open cutters or passing lanes.
Markham Hooters
STRENGTHS
- Markham demonstrated excellent possession control and ball movementOnly 3 turnovers and 19 assists, a 6.3 assist-to-turnover ratio, compared with So Close's 16 assists and 20 turnovers. That discipline created extra opportunities and limited self-inflicted damage.
- The pressure defense was disruptiveThe team recorded 11 steals, including 6 by #8, and helped generate 20 opponent turnovers. The staff can continue building around aggressive hands and sound timing while preserving defensive positioning.
- Scoring was reasonably distributed and supported by strong two-point shooting. #1 led with 23 points on 9/20 shooting and 4 assists, #0 and #35 each added 15 points, and the team shot 19/42 (45.2%) from two-point range.
TO WORK ON
- Rebounding was a major weakness25 total rebounds versus 44, with only 6 offensive rebounds and 19 defensive rebounds. The staff should prioritize box-out assignments, gang rebounding, and securing the catch with two hands, using #35's 11 rebounds as the defensive anchor. Reducing the 19-rebound deficit would directly limit So Close's second-chance opportunities.
- Shot quality needs attentionMarkham shot 24/66 (36.4%) overall and made only 5 of 24 three-point attempts (20.8%). #1 was 4/11 from deep, #8 was 1/5, and #2 was 0/4. Build actions that first exploit the team's 45.2% two-point shooting, then accept threes only when created by strong spacing rather than forced early-clock attempts.
- Free-throw conversion was 7/13 (53.8%). Since the team earned 13 attempts, this represents a meaningful scoring opportunity. Tighten the routine, hold the follow-through, and add a short pressure routine so bonus possessions are converted rather than surrendered.
