Showed a little outside shooting touch this season at Roseville.
Nate Chavez – Chavez is a six-foot-six-inch 2025 wing from Orono. Chavez’s best skill is spot-up shooting from deep where he made 40% of his 3’s for the 2023-24 season, and comes off screens ready to unload well. Weak-side help defender because of height.
Highlights

Rowland does good cutting to open defensive spaces and uses a quick step to burst to the basket. Good ability to be a secondary ball handler, and pushing pace up the floor.
