Continue ReadingSt. Laurence 2016 Willie Walton is a 5’11” powerfully built point guard. He is a tough guard that gets in the lane and scores with runners and powerful layups around the hoop. Gets to the line at a good clip. Solid passer that has a feel for threading the needle in the half court on back cuts and quick passes inside. Walton is an active defender. Worth consideration at the D3, NAIA, or JUCO level.
Walton broke down his game.
“Pass first point guard who looks for his teammates to get everyone equal shots. I try to make the players around me better.”
He also puts an emphasis on the defensive end.
“Ever since I was a little kid my dad has always stressed defense wins championships. So I try to play defense and help my team win.”
He is not sure between playing football and basketball at the next level. Nice small school prospect if he decides to go with hoops.
