He's a scrappy guard that was able to manufacture points in transition. He also showed some shooting prowess knocking down three threes in the game I saw.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["2027028"],"_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":"It's not the size of the dog, and Santiago proved that he had fight. The bespectacled post battled bigger players for rebounds, showing a knack for coming up with tough boards. He's a good battler, that could give the Sun Devils a big energy lift at points during the season.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["2027031"],"_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":"Bell has caught my eye during the league. The PG has an exceptional burst, which allows him to get by defenders in a hurry. He's more than just a straight line driver, as he has displayed a few nice COD's showing off some big time handle and wiggle as well.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["2027034"],"_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":"I have to be honest, I wasn't paying much attention to Cheyenne's contest, until Navarro started going off. The gold shoed hooper, did a terrific job of using his quickness to get to his spot, before making a combination of three point and mid range jumpers.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1984225"],"_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":"I truly believe that Thomas' physicality, energy and athleticism will help Canyon this season. It doesn't hurt that he can also clean the glass. The post is a terrific rim runner, who had a nice display of athleticism, catching and finishing with a dunk in transition.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["1741161"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Legardy has popped both times I've seen him. The guard plays with good speed and quickness, and uses it effectively to get to the basket. He's going to have to defend to stay on the floor, but he has the kind of physical tools that could position him for a stockrising type of season.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["1984187"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"MWW has been good during the entire league. He has an it factor about him which allows him to hunt and make big shots, despite not being a 1st or 2nd option. He's willing to defend, showing that he can be effective on ball. Overall he looks like he'll add more perimeter depth for the defending 3A champs.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_player":["1937501"],"_player_evaluations_7_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"Shooters shoot and that is exactly what Maynor is. It's one thing to just make shots, but Maynor wasn't even touching the rim. He has a quick and effortless release making it practically unfair when he was left open in the corner.","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":8,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6493431351850"} /-->
