Lawrence displayed incredible speed as he delivered sharp blow-bys and swift takeoffs following his cross jabs and between-the-leg moves. The lefty capitalized on his shooting opportunities, nailing three consecutive three-pointers and even showing the ability to hit shots from well beyond the arc off the dribble. His balance and elevation were remarkable, especially from logo range. Nehemiah was the driving force behind Allen, bringing an abundance of energy, effort, and toughness, and it showed in his attempts to take charges on drives to the rim.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6552dd65b2af0"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2272610"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2273162,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='2272610' first='Tyler' last='Murphy'] had a solid outing, starting strong by scoring Prestonwood's first 5 points and finishing the first half with 11, ultimately accumulating 17 points in total by the end. Murphy proved to be a floor general with strong leadership qualities. His high basketball IQ allowed him to direct the offense effectively, manipulating the defense off the dribble and setting up his teammates. His scoring prowess was shown through his driving skills, where he showcased the ability to penetrate the paint and execute finishes off two feet or by attacking from outside the lane and converting off-balance floaters. What stood out most about Murphy was his passion and competitive spirit. He was one of those rare prospects who exerted just as much, if not more, energy on the defensive end as he did on offense. Tyler showed that he was the type of player willing to dive and lay out for loose balls, often showing a first-to-the-floor mentality.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6552dd65b2bb8"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1487364"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2273163,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='1487364' first='Mason' last='White'] began his season with an impressive 16-point performance.
