He's a wiry forward that flies around on both ends making plays around the rim and comes in averaging a double-double (24.3 ppg, 11.9 rpg) on the season.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1743436"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Leonard stepped up in a big way in their comeback victory against Bishop McGuinness with 11 points in the third quarter and 10 points in the fourth quarter including a big 3-pointer to give them the lead for good 54-51 in the waning moments. He's an aggressive guard that can knock down shots and get to his spots in the paint for the Wildcats. He'll have his work cut out for him with Wilson Prep this Saturday.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1743446"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Brower was another Eastern Randolph player that stepped up in their Region Final comeback with 10 points in the second half including a 3-pointer to boost their lead to four points in the fourth quarter. He's a 6-foot-2 underrated sophomore that can operate on the perimeter as a playmaker and shot maker with the ball in his hands.
