Kopittke first popped at the Maverik Showtime All-Star Game last summer and has already improved his off-hand. Big, strong, and highly athletic, he’s explosive and fun to watch with the ball. His electric first step and shake create separation at will, and his hands and instincts stand out—using fakes to freeze defenses before beating the slide. He plays with poise and confidence, quickly proving to be a nightmare matchup. The Charlotte native also shows a feel for opening things up for teammates, an area that could elevate his game further. His athleticism ranks among the best I’ve seen in the first couple of months of watching this class.

Kopittke is an aggressive, high-impact midfielder who thrives as both a dodging and shooting threat. With a powerful first step and elite range, he forces defenses to respect him every time he touches the ball. His outside shooting ability is exceptional, capable of stretching defenses and opening space for teammates. Confident and composed, Kopittke plays with the swagger of a true playmaker, always ready to take over a possession. His combination of athleticism, shooting precision, and assertiveness makes him one of the most dynamic offensive weapons on the field.
