The long point forward does a good job of playmaking at his size and threw several nice passes to find cutting teammates throughout the game. Sensley also has the capability to stretch the floor as a 3 point shooter but needs to become more efficient.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1450484"],"_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":"Jacob showed off his multi dimensional skillset on Friday afternoon in Eastside Catholic's tough less to Mater Dei. He can handle very well for his size which enables him to be a perimeter scoring threat with a quickness advantage over most defenders his size.

He's a bouncy athlete who uses his leaping ability and speed to create separation from defenders.

He protected the rim effectively against a talented group of athletes and served as one of Alta's best playmakers on the offensive end. Johnson's height and passing vision enables him to pass over and around double teams at an advanced level and is a large part of what makes him one of the most sought after big men in Utah.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_6_player_details_player_name":"Markee White Jr","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_6_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_6_player_details_height":"6'6u0022","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_6_player_details_position":"77245","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_6_player_details_school":"Corona Centennial","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_6_player_details_club_team":"Paul George Elite","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_6_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"Markee showed off his greatly improved interior scoring touch on Friday afternoon against Corner Canyon.
