He is physical on both sides of the ball, fighting through screens and always boxing out opposing players in the paint. He attacks the ball well with both hands, taking care of the ball and having a soft touch around the rim. His athleticism is eye opening every time I see him play live. When I say he can jump out of the gym, I mean it. He's set up for a big summer and even bigger senior year next year.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1315366"],"_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":"Lucas does all the little things very well as he boxes out every possession and attacks the glass to get boards. He runs the lane smoothly in transition, always filling the lanes that are empty. McClendon attacks the ball well with both of his hands, being just as agressive with his off hand as he is with his dominant hand. He's gonna have a big season with NW Drip.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["2375378"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Ira handles the ball well and is able to get downhill efficently, with either hand. His dribbling moves have only improved since last season after his big sophomore year campaign. Smith finds his teammates when they are open on the outside, hitting them perfectly in their shooting pockets. Smith is a point guard to watch next season.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["2141308"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"I watched Devin live last weekend during a tournament and he instantly stood out. He is insanely athletic and has natural talent on the court. He finds his mid-range spots with ease, exploding off his dribble move to create space for himself. His deep shot was locked in as well, he proved why he is a top 10 player in the 2027 class. Next year will be huge for Freeman.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1936885"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Here is another player who I watched live last weekend who stood out to me. Edison played intense tight defense, not letting the opposing player get away from him at all. He handles the ball well, especially when the opposing team is giving intense ball pressure. He shoots the ball at a high clip, knocking down mid range shots but also easily hitting the deep shot if he's left open. He was one of my favorite players to watch last weekend.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6623d233aa33b"} /-->
