The rising junior guard led his team in scoring with 19pts, scoring early and often in a variety ways. He gets out well attacking the rim in transition finishing with dunks. He dropped timely 3's along the perimeter, and used his solid body to withstand blows finishing off drives into the paint.

Later he looked to be more aggressive, with strong takes and finishes on the drive, he hit a couple of big 3's, and dropped the mid-range jumper. He defends well.","_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 player_id='1119284' first='Marcus' last='Washington']","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"6'5u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"77245","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Modesto Christian","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"Stockton Soldiers","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"The Transfer from Valley Christian (San Jose) played an exceptional floor game.

He's a good defender on the perimeter staying close and making you work for points. He has good timing to block a jump shot. He'll get transition buckets, and hit the short jumper.

With his size he can effect shots in the paint help with rebounding, and disturb 3 point shooters in the corner and along the perimeter. He has a good upside.
