Union 16U trailed by double-digits for two thirds of their game against [program_tooltip program_id='2075308' first='Beast' last='Elite'] 2026. The game was on track to be a blowout before Union went on a remarkable run. Marshall was responsible for steadying the ship, hitting timely shots, spacing the floor, and finding teammates in transition.

He wasn't the biggest guard in the tournament, nor did he have his best outing game after game. That said, his process and skillset was impressive. He has a perimeter-oriented game and can absolutely fill it up from range. Additionally, he has a tight handle, and he can finish below the rim with nice touch.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66380e57977d9"} /-->
