Continue ReadingUsed his height to his advantage in their matchup with PFHS and put together one of his better showings of the season. He scored 18 Points, pulled down 13 Rebounds and didn’t settle for the outside shot too often.
Brought a nice amount of physicality to the court, using his size and strength to make plays. He didn’t put up big time numbers in this matchup but he made presence known early on.
In their matchup against Berean Baptist early in the week, he put together a performance where he impacted the game in just about every way he possibly could. He finished with a triple double of 10 Points, 10 Assist and 19 Rebounds, using his height and length to make plays at a nice rate he can be as good as he wants to be when he’s locked in.

Really liked what we saw from him production wise and his potential to be special. He’s a legit 6’4/6’5 and showed some flashes of skill set that we only expect to get even better over the next few years.

In their matchup with Lee County HS, he was dominant in the paint in the first half, scoring 10 of his 12 points in the first sixteen minutes as well as rebounding at a high level through the entire game. It’s always impressive to see a younger player that understands how to use his physical attributes to his advantage and that’s exactly what we saw from him. He didn’t shy away from any type of contact, understands his role on the team and will be one to keep a close eye on over the next few years.

Smaller colleges that may be looking for a post player should give him a call as we feel that he could be a player that can make a nice impact and still has some good upside. He plays his role well, uses his athletic ability to make plays on both ends of the floor and uses his length/height to his advantage.
