He has a pretty jumper that is efficient. He loves to shoot it beyond the arch but has a good touch in the paint and midrange. He plays the gamer with great confidence and freedom. It's fun to watch.  u003ca href=u0022https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/micah_mandley_720.pngu0022u003eu003cimg class=u0022size-medium wp-image-2417618 alignrightu0022 src=u0022https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/micah_mandley_720.png?w=300u0022 alt=u0022u0022 width=u0022300u0022 height=u0022300u0022 /u003eu003c/au003eu003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["2411876"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_player_featured_image":2417619,"_player_evaluations_1_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=u0022trueu0022u003eWeis is someone you want on your team.

His ceiling is incredibly high. He is listed at 6'8 and is equally as long. He moves fluidly and is coordinated. He is still learning how to use his length and his body but has flashes of being really good. He has a good touch around the rim. He is also a great rim protector. He is blocking or altering so many shots. He became the difference in the game late. He has a nice and pretty jumper. u003ca href=u0022https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/jack_goodnough_720.pngu0022u003eu003cimg class=u0022size-medium wp-image-2417622 alignrightu0022 src=u0022https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/jack_goodnough_720.png?w=300u0022 alt=u0022u0022 width=u0022300u0022 height=u0022300u0022 /u003eu003c/au003eu003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["2323275"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_player_featured_image":2417623,"_player_evaluations_3_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=u0022trueu0022u003eFlower is a good slasher.

He is a lefty driver. He finishes great with through and around traffic. He can fade away and bank it off the glass on the way down. He is strong and dictates the contact while he drives. He is tough to stop and bump off his line.  u003ca href=u0022https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/adam_flower_720.pngu0022u003eu003cimg class=u0022size-medium wp-image-2417625 alignrightu0022 src=u0022https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/adam_flower_720.png?w=300u0022 alt=u0022u0022 width=u0022300u0022 height=u0022300u0022 /u003eu003c/au003eu003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":4,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66234fd1b45c6"} /-->
