Adept mid-range shooter. Solid, not elite as an outside shooter, though there is an indication that he will get there with off-season reps. Handle is above average for a high school sophomore. Passable for a 4A point guard.
Will needs to move better without the basketball.
Will's speed in the Lane Agility (13.17, 12.04) varied greatly. Typically, players improve from their first go to their second, as they become more familiar with the body movements required to traverse the free throw rectangle. Still, his improvement was dramatic. If we consider the 12.04 his standard time, the time he would average if Meadows completed the Lane Agility 10 times in a row, then he is an average 4A guard in the quickness department. At 5-foot-9,

needs to be a little quicker in order to compensate for his size discrepancy. In high school, and absolutely college he will be attacking 6-foot-0+ guards and the advantage shorter guards often have is quickness. This must be enacted.
Meadows' sprint speed (3.14, 3.03) was very good. We did not time him, or any campers, with the basketball on the dribble, but it seems likely that Will can sprint fast up the floor with the dribble. Can he use this skill to initiate and push the ball in transition? Probably.

NBA Stylistic Comparison: 2022 Kings DeAaron Fox
Very, very fast. Cedric recorded both the fastest and second-fastest lane agility times and he set the daily record by a good margin.
Boseman was just ok with his dribbling effectiveness. He showed the capability to burst up the open floor, but lacked the technique to crisply break down defenders in tighter halfcourt settings. He also over-dribbled during several five-on-five possessions.
