His ability to create on the offensive end stood out, as well as his length on the defensive end to guard multiple positions. His versatility on all three levels stood out for Showtime Ballers in both games on Saturday.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1858970"],"_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":"The 6-10 center is long and extremely athletic who can impact the game on both ends. He ran the floor exceptionally well and is a viable threat to finish around the rim on a high level. On the defensive end his length caused the ability to block shots and limit opponents from getting second chance scoring opportunities. Lathan's recruitment will continue to grow as well as he's received offers from Dayton, LSU, Missouri State, Old Dominion and several others.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1055578"],"_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":"The 6-9 power forward can make the game look so simple at times whether it's on the offensive end or defensive end. His athletic ability allows him to guard positions 1 through 5 when out on the floor. He is a stretch forward who can pull up from the mid-range as well as finish violently around the rim. He finished with a double-double in the win over Team Florida this afternoon.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1055785"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"The 6-4 forward checked all the boxes whether it was his ability to finish around the rim, the mid-range or occasionally shoot from beyond the arc. He consistently got his teammates involved in the offensive end with his pure passing ability. He is easily a Top 5 ranked point guard in the junior class across the state. Ramadan currently holds an offer from Florida Southwestern.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1163420"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"The 6-6 guard is shifty for his size and can make plays happen whether it's off the dribble or away from the ball. Wright always seems to be in the right position as well on the defensive end whether he is guarding both guard positions or on a mismatch. On the offensive end he also has limitless range and was shooting the 3-point ball at a consistent rate.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6469937f00078"} /-->
