Has quick trigger that he is not afraid to use and has arguably the best pull up jumper on this roster. Really tough player on the ball but has shown this past high school year that he can play off the ball. He will create his own looks while creating for others. The offense on this team might run through a lot this year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Potential Breakout Player: [player_tooltip player_id='1578414' first='Jeffrey' last='Williams'] </h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Williams is a bigger wing that plays physical and can score in so many ways. He can mix it up inside and out. He has an outstanding motor and battles. Real active, plays with confidence, and overall has a good feel for the game. Expect a few games this season that he goes off scoring wise. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Quick Hitters</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1386181' first='Jack' last='Cherry'] - Cherry is a shorter lead guard but will steadiness at that spot for this team.
