At 6'4 he's tough to matchup with because his strength allows him to overpower smaller forwards, but when guarded with size he has the quick feet to beat them off the dribble. Against NBN he was able to attack out of the high post when guarded by a 6'9 big, but when defended by 6'3 guys he was bullying them into deep post position before powering his way up to the rim. Defensively he was tough to move on the block, did a nice job of walling up to contest, and had a couple of blocks showcasing good timing to get off the floor. Did a great job of boxing out and high pointing rebounds.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1904130"],"_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 had a huge first half for NBN on Sunday morning. The Colorado guard really impressed with his post-up game as a guard. At 6'3 he has good positional size, and often had a height advantage over the guards defending him. Lucas was taking them into the post, backing them down into deep position, and was finding success turning and finishing with either hand. Has the handle to get into his mid-range pull-up as well. Physical tools and length at 6'3 allowed him to defend a number of different spots on the floor.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["2381689"],"_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":"Parion is an impressive defender for [program_tooltip program_id='2076029' first='Wisconsin' last='Crusaders'] 16u. At 6'3 he moves well laterally, has a long frame, and some strength to withstand contact and fight over screens. Those physical tools allow him to defend the 1-3 spots at the high school level, and he continues to show great instincts to come up with turnovers. Knows when to take his chances to jump passing lanes for steals, and is always willing to get on the floor and fight for loose balls. The type of guard who can go out and contribute to wins without needing to shoot a lot.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1441371"],"_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":"Oskar was producing down low for [program_tooltip program_id='2076029' first='Wisconsin' last='Crusaders'] on Sunday morning, utilizing his strong 6'6 frame to contribute in a number of ways. Showed some athleticism as he cut hard off the ball, caught, and elevated for a two handed dunk. Was also capable of going to work with his back-to-the-basket, utilizing his footwork and frame to create angles to finish at the rim. Defensively he blocked a handful of shots and was using his height to contribute on the glass.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["2105399"],"_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":"I had been hearing a lot about Ahmad this spring, and in my first viewing he put up some big scoring numbers for the [program_tooltip program_id='2075383' first='Chicago' last='Demons']. At halftime against Basketball Paradise he had already racked up 16 points, and did so mostly from jumpers. He can get into his mid-range game off one or two dribbles, and the elevation he gets on his shot allows him to get a shot off with a hand right in his face. Range extends out to well beyond the arc where he can shoot off the catch or dribble. When his team needed a bucket, they could give the ball to Ahmad on the wing and just let him go to work.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["2334404"],"_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":"In a matchup of productive 2u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003e026 guards, Tre did not disappoint. He scored 18 points in just the first half, slicing and dicing his way to the basket for some crafty finishes. Tre has a quick first step to beat his man off the dribble, and displayed excellent body control as he was converting on a number of tough looks through contact. Showed more explosiveness than I knew he had as he came flying in for a putback dunk off a teammate's miss. Was at his best getting to the basket for high percentage looks, but showed flashes of a pull-up game as well.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["2399153"],"_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":"Tysin put together a solid outing running the point for Northern Kentucky Legends. He stood out with his vocal leadership on the floor as just a freshman, as he was getting his team set on offense and defense. Does a nice job of handling the ball under pressure, and utilizes his frame to get defenders on his hip and attack the basket. Had a couple of strong finishes early in the game, and then showed his vision to drive-and-kick to his shooters as the defense started to collapse on him harder.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":7,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-664ba305cfe0d"} /-->
