Beals is an above-average passer for his size and displays great court vision on the offensive end. Beals is also a dynamic athlete who is unafraid to finish at the front of the rim with traffic. Since the start of the summer, Beals has expanded his game and is a threat to score from the perimeter as well.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='2217929' first='Paul' last='Burkhardt']","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"6'4u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Ponte Vedra","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003e[player_tooltip player_id='2217929' first='Paul' last='Burkhardt'], u003c/strongu003eA 6-4 junior guard is a solidified prospect who has a smooth inside-out game where he can stretch the floor. Burkhardt plays with good length and uses a ton of strength off the catch where he has a knack for knocking down shots over opposing guards. On the defensive end, he plays with a ton of versatility and can recover defensive lapses at a great level with improved footwork. Look for Burkhardt to play with more confidence on the interior as his outside-game is still a work in progress.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1679384"],"_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":"u003cstrongu003eManuel Castro, u003c/strongu003eA 6-3 junior guard plays both ends of the floor with an extremely high motor as he can create for his teammates with his creativity when he has the basketball in his hands. Castro can score in the open space as well as finishing above the rim on the attack. On the defensive end, he is an excellent rebounder for his size and uses his athleticism along with quickness to get out on the break. Look for Castro to have an emerging junior season where college coaches should be on his radar by the spring.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1988096"],"_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":"u003cstrongu003eGiordan Easley, u003c/strongu003eA 6-0 junior point guard was one of the best 2025 prospects in the gym at the Prep Hoops Top 250. Easley is a shifty point guard who controls the game at his own pace playing with a high IQ and is an elite decision maker. With his recent move to Cypress Lake after playing his first two seasons of high school basketball in Minnesota, Easley is emerging as one of the top prospects in the state with his ability to become a three-level scoring threat.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":4,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6512f67029bee"} /-->
