most, he shoots the ball well to balance his athletic skill set and show he's not just a leaper.  Kirk certainly looks like a kid who is on the fast track to a college program given his level of athleticism.  Once word is out on this prospect, coaches will soon be calling.","_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

absolutely impressed while in Triadelphia and scouts and coaches weren't shy about talking about it.  Only a sophomore, at 6'2u0022 this already skilled guard could grow and become a big guard or even a wing type player.  Exciting year in store for this young prospect.","_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
