He has a high release on his jumper allowing him to shoot over the top of the defense even when he is tightly guarded. Using smart positioning and great length, he becomes a dangerous rebounding threat; he corrals plenty of O boards and creates a ton of second chance looks. I like the hustle that Samuel displays too, he's constantly moving and demonstrates wonderful awareness on both ends.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1561962"],"_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":"Walters finds a ton of success thanks to his off-ball movement. He's highly efficient in and around the paint and does a good job of keeping the ball above his head when inside. Walters has great mobility for his size and is a solid athlete, giving him an advantage over slower and bigger post-players who he's often tasked with guarding. He works hard on the glass and always has good positioning. Walters is a good passer out of low-post situations and is comfortable going either direction.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='2498966' first='Darrius' last='Peete']","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"77247","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Germantown","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"Chapman Basketball Gold Elite","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Peete's ability to run the floor is elite and he loves to get steals and turn defense into offense. Peete, like his frontcourt mate, Walters, is a good athlete which helps him as a finisher, rebounder, and defender. He can guard multiple positions and always has great on-ball pressure. He's good at playing in the air and gets into the paint relatively easily. Once there, he can absorb and finish through contact nicely. I love the intensity Peete brings on both ends of the court.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"Maurice Garrett","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"77247","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"Clippers Nation Elite","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_3_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Something that Garrett excels at is using his body to his advantage. He has a bigger, stronger frame but he spends much time on the perimeter as he has good guard skills. When he's inside, he knows how to position himself for success and makes good use of the ball-fake. Garrett also displays great patience when attacking the basket. He's tough to speed up and thanks to how hard he rebounds, he's able to grab-n-go off the defensive boards.

He is a gifted scorer and can get his buckets from just about anywhere. He has great touch with his floater, extended range on his three-ball, and a whole bag of crafty finishes around the rim. Paul is a comfortable ball-handler and keeps a tight handle. He also is a good playmaker who keeps his head up as he attacks the lane. Paul has a very polished offensive game.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_5_player_details_player_name":"Christian Dryer","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_5_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_5_player_details_height":"6'4u0022","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_5_player_details_position":"77243","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_5_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_5_player_details_club_team":"[program_tooltip program_id='2078838' first='World' last='Hoops Elite']","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_5_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_5_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Dryer is a big-body post player that can power through contact and finish around the rim at a high rate. I really like how deep he gets when working for positioning in the low-post. He has good footwork with his back-to-the-basket. Dryer has great strength and this helps him create solid wall-ups in low-post and help side defensive situations. He rebounds the ball well and with those great wall-ups, he blocks and deters many shots. Dryer is a nice post presence to anchor any defense.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":6,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6478cdf1c9975"} /-->
