The 6-foot-5 big man has a 6-foot-8 wingspan and uses that to his advantage as a rebounder and shot blocker. While it was limited to straight line drives he showed that he can take his man to the rim as well.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["2234116"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Eberhard is a tough big man who sees the ball well coming off the rim and rebounds in his area.

A long and lanky combo forward, he did a majority of his damage around the rim. He is quick enough that he can outrun opposing bigs and beat Hayes down the floor a couple of times for easy baskets. He will need to improve his touch, but gives the Ravens a big man for the future.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='2473574' first='Joshua' last='Simmons']","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"6'7u0022","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"77243","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"Iona Prep","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_3_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"The big man was a factor on the glass and has good hands when catching the ball already.
