He showed he could knock down shots on the perimeter and attack the basket with his patience off the bounce. He's a smooth operator who doesn't try to overdo things when getting to the painted area and a strong finisher in traffic. Look for his name to emerge in the Holy Rams backcourt this season.","_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":2295608,"_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='2411568' first='Austin' last='Joyner']","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"77244","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Hunt","_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":"Hunt High had a number of hidden gems in the opening game of the Montrezl Harrell Hoop Fest. [player_tooltip player_id='2411568' first='Austin' last='Joyner'] is the first of those gems, as he stepped up in a big way down the stretch when Hunt High needed him. He showed off his ability to pressure the ball and create turnovers and instantly turn in into a positive play on the other end of the floor. He was big for the Warriors in the second half as he poured in 17 of his 21 points, scoring in the midrange and on the perimeter off the attack.

He was stellar in showing his confidence handling the basketball and creating on the wing, utilizing his 6-foot-3 length as a perimeter threat. He knocked down two 3-pointers and finished with 14 points while showing he could also be a presence on the glass and a playmaker for others.

He went off for 33 points, showing off his ability to score in a variety of ways while creating energy with his ability to be a menace on the boards and in the painted area.

He's an unsigned senior floor general who emerged as quite the leader in the Warriors attack on both ends of the floor. He finished with 11 points and a healthy number of assists in their winning effort over Martin County High. He played well alongside his counterparts and got them in positions to make things happen within the offense. Defensively, he showed he could create turnovers and operate in the painted area as a rebounder. He's a new face in the 2024 class who could play a role in a run on this year's schedule.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6577d7f46c117"} /-->
