DMV Top-250: Team 4 Evaluations

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I will be posting evaluations based on what I observed from every team that participated in the DMV Top-250. Here is a look at those who played on Team 4. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2148746' first='Noah' last='Arterbery'] | Gainesville (VA) '24</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Arterbery is a skilled guard prospect who impacted the game on both ends of the floor. I liked how he took away airspace on the ball defensively. Arterbery is shifty with the ball and confident with his ball-handling skills. This enabled him to get to his spots and score from all three levels. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Elijah Dickens | Johnson County (TN) '25 </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dickens impressed me with his constant hustle. The 6'6" forward blocked at least two or three shots in my presence. Dickens also tends to come up with second-chance points because he crashes the boards relentlessly. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1579095' first='Tremayne' last='Hawkins'] | Clinton Grace (MD) '24</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I noticed that Hawkins made an effort to keep his teammates involved. The 6'7" forward is very good at pushing the ball up the court in transition and making the right decision. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2148853' first='Deng' last='Jok'] | Glenelg Country (MD) '25</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jok used every bit of his broad 6'11" frame to make things difficult for foes who challenged him near the paint. He was formidable as a shot-blocking threat and productive as a rebounder. Jok also exhibits a soft natural touch when shooting the ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2148727' first='Benny' last='Koutone'] | Albemarle (VA) '24</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Koutone is a 6'2" guard who looked to get paint touches while in possession. From there, Koutone would either dish it to the open man or score. He is a smart off-ball mover who did well to find the gaps in the defense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1588139' first='Connor' last='Lyons'] | St. Anne's Belfield (VA) '26</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lyons reinforced his credentials as a dead-eye shooter from three. The 6'7" wing hit several threes from NBA range. I noticed that Lyons was very assertive with the ball and was comfortable creating space in tight quarters. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1767550' first='Andrew' last='Maria'] | Yorktown (VA) '25</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There's a lot to be excited about when you consider Maria's long-term potential. The 6'3" guard can do it all. I saw Maria hit a three, then attack a closeout and finish in the lane. He also blocked a shot in impressive fashion and regularly assisted his teammates. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Dominic Nguyen | Seton (VA) '26</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Nguyen is a promising point guard prospect with a quick first step and clear court vision. I saw him blow by defenders multiple times and either finish through contact or make the pass to an open teammate. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2148786' first='Evin' last='Thompson'] | Sherwood (MD) '25</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Thompson checked a lot of boxes for me during this eval. I noticed that he attacks the glass at an above-average rate for a guard. Thompson can hurt you with his scoring and playmaking. He's a sound decision-maker who will pass up a good shot for a great one. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
