His change of speed on the ball allowed him to get to just about any spot he wanted to, and from there was locating his open teammates with well-timed and accurate passes. Consistently forced the defense to collapse on him as he drove, and had the vision to locate his open shooters out on the perimeter. His three point shot wasn't dropping in the game that I watched, but he went 7/11 from deep in his very next game on his way to 37 points.

Over the past couple of seasons he's shown he can step into just about any role that this team needs from him. Yesterday he showed flashes of just about everything he's capable of, including some impressive passing. Ben dished out 7 assists in a win, zipping in passes from the perimeter and out of the post. Utilizes his size to see over the top of the defense and find his cutting teammates to the basket. Has the strength and size to power his way to the rim for finishes as well. Further stuffed the box score with a handful of rebounds to help his team defeat Minnesota Lightning.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["2381759"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='2381759' first='Reggie' last='Parker'] had some impressive rebounding performances on Saturday morning. The 6'5 forward out of Rochester Mayo just couldn't be kept off the glass on either end of the floor. Reggie is an explosive athlete, and has a motor that just doesn't stop. That showed as he was high-pointing missed shots and finding ways to keep possessions alive for his team on the offensive end. Went up against a loaded All Wisconsin frontcourt and was still able to make an impression with his play.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["2103258"],"_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":"You'll have a hard time finding a better on-ball defender in Minnesota's 2u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003e025 class than [player_tooltip player_id='2103258' first='De'von' last='Irvin']. He doesn't give opposing ball handlers an inch of space to breathe on the ball, and is a constant pest pressuring them on the ball. Irvin is so good at fighting to get over screens, and is nearly impossible to shake off the dribble. Had multiple steals leading to easy transition buckets for himself and his teammates throughout the game. Irvin never seems to run out of energy, as he still applies the same level of ball pressure late in games, while also being a vocal leader on the floor for [program_tooltip program_id='2422572' first='D1' last='Minnesota Gold'].u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='2617276' first='TJ' last='Starkey']","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"77246","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"Rocori","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"Minnesota Comets","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_4_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"TJ was lights out from beyond the arc in a win over [program_tooltip program_id='2075674' first='Minnesota' last='Heat']. The 5'9 point guard was making defenders pay for not keeping a hand up, showcasing a quick release with range extending well beyond the arc. The lefty guard was active moving off the ball to find pockets of space to catch-and-shoot, but could also pull-up from three off the dribble if his man wasn't tight enough.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["2126102"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Jaeden flashed his takeover ability in both halves of [program_tooltip program_id='2075431' first='D1' last='Minnesota'] 15u's opening matchup. In the first half he came out firing knocking down a tough pull-up three and getting to the rim for a couple of finishes. That initial spark helped get his team out in front early on. In the second half when his team's offense had stalled, Jaeden decided to take over again. He hit three or four straight shots in a variety of fashions, and from there D1 could coast to the win. Has the ability to make difficult shots look routine in a way that not many players can, and is so good at creating space on the perimeter.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["1592856"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"[program_tooltip program_id='2075310' first='Northstar' last='Titans'] came up just short against Team FSA, but Jackson had them in it until the end. He caught fire from beyond the arc, hitting 5 or 6 threes in the first half alone. Driessen was running off screens and elevating to get off his shot, and was doing so against a defense filled with length. Also did a nice job of getting defenders in the air with a shot-fake, and from there getting into the lane to make plays for his teammates. One of the best three point shooting performances I've seen all spring.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":7,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-662e37a9d3992"} /-->
