Carr is a ULTRA athletic forward for the Lions. Coen was able to flush down a few dunks today when he was not stalking the baseline. Coen excels in the transition and plays every second of the game to the fullest with his GREAT MOTOR. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/AF606593-5A11-4F62-AB81-A3282402E608-crop-2745x1802-1643593145.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1376220" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/AF606593-5A11-4F62-AB81-A3282402E608-crop-2745x1802-1643593145-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a></p> <p>Arnold came off the bench today as the 6th man and finished with 12 points. Khalil can knockdown the 3-ball, pop off screens or slash to the cup. He does a good job of staying active away from the ball at all times. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/7BC86F9E-6FDC-4553-ADA1-9CE62B6D8754-crop-3385x2223-1643593208.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1376221" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/7BC86F9E-6FDC-4553-ADA1-9CE62B6D8754-crop-3385x2223-1643593208-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a></p> <p>Horton was able to play inside-out on the floor today from the forward. Khali connected on some perimeter jumpers when he wasn’t posting up down on the block. He at times will bring the ball up the floor and handle it in transition. Horton finished with 8 points in the loss. </p> <p><em><strong>Foor Has Solid Floor Game </strong></em></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/E4471B06-0BD6-48DF-8234-62E8613DAAD6.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1376216" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/E4471B06-0BD6-48DF-8234-62E8613DAAD6-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="865305" first="Matty" last="Foor"]</strong> brings a confidence to the floor that you can’t teach at times. Foor was able to drive the baseline and finish at the rack today on a few occasions. Foor took a big charge late in the game to secure the victory for the Hurricanes. Matty finished with 15 points in the win over the Lions. He really brings a competitive edge to the Hurricanes roster. </p> <p><em><strong>Versatile Senior </strong></em></p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/95ECCD9F-168A-41C0-9851-CD1A49DAA9C5.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1376212" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/95ECCD9F-168A-41C0-9851-CD1A49DAA9C5-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="870189" first="Zaylan" last="Chaney"]</strong> has a thicker frame and the ability to play multiple positions on the floor. Chaney runs the floor like a guard, defends out on the perimeter, takes charges when he’s not driving the ball downhill to the basket. He is a mismatch guy at the next level with his versatility. </p>
