Clearly showed that he was the best player on the floor and made a high number of plays from the PG and SG slots. He can score the ball from multiple levels but also showed his ability to facilitate, finishing with 21 Points & 7 Assist on the day.
Logged some major minutes for his team at the PG spot and provided a solid second scoring option as he finished with 14 Points on the night. He’s one of the few seniors on the roster that has plenty of experience which is a valuable asset to a team that has quite a few younger players.
Embraces his role on the team as a three-point specialist, knocking down shots from the perimeter at a high rate. He moves well without the ball, does not try to over dribble and brings a level of leadership for a very young roster.

Was solid throughout the evening but really stepped up and made some big time plays in the fourth quarter. He scored nine of his fifteen points in the final period and facilitated to teammates at a solid rate, putting them in positions to score without much of an issue.
One of the few pass-first Point Guards in the state, his facilitating abilities were on full display in their matchup with 71st HS. He understands how to run a team, doesn’t turn the ball over often and does an outstanding job putting the ball in the right spots for his teammates to score easily. He scored 13 points, but his most impressive stat was a game high of 12 Assist on the night with 7 Assist coming in the first half.
