it was an almost, who is this kid moment as he was lighting it up from deep as he got space and room and everything that he was throwing up was on line. Ike missed a lot of the season with an injury but has been coming on now and at a good time. He was solid against TTO EYBL as they lost a tough one at the end by one and he was so good against Martin Bros. This kid has size and he is thick. Has a solid post game and he can obviously shoot the rock.
EJ looked good out there doing a little bit of everything. That fact that he can grab and go really left an impression. He is able to handle the ball and with a. team that really spreads the floor he gets a lot of opportunities to drive the lanes and even duck in and get some post catches. With so many offers you can see what next level coaches see in this kid as he can score all over the floor. Defends well and has a nice IQ when he rotates.
The big fella has game. He resembles a heavy weight boxer that can go the distance because he just keeps that motor on and weight to pounce on you when you put your guard down. He has a decent perimeter game. But he is a big time pick and pop prospect that has a some size. He pulls out bigs that usually do not play out in the perimeter. He is tough in the paint and his activity on both ends of the glass are really something. He was a tough cover today out here in Memphis.
Highlights
Logan was a big time player today as he was handling the ball well and he was finding open player but he was at his best making quick moves and getting to the rim. He has some strength and he keeps his vision up, he was being hounded by a tough defender but he found ways to get loose. Impressive young PG that will only get better in all aspects of his duties as a PG.
