Saturday was a great example of that with the sharpshooter lighting it up from deep with multiple three point makes. He drilled tough off the dribble makes and spotted up from deep behind the arc. With a pure looking shooting form, he made it look like every shot was going in.rnrnIt wasn't just his pinpoint shooting, he continued to show improvement as a passer and creator, as his team lit up the score board in a competitive win.  The strides he's making as a passer are very important, as the 918 standout isn't the biggest or fastest when judging to the talent of the next level.  But his combination shooting, improving court awareness and basketball IQ will provide him ample chances to play collegiately.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["2223700"],"_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":"The offensive light appears to be very close to coming fully on the athletic lead guard. In his team's opening contest on Saturday, Barrett lived at the rim. Where he's finishing more consistent than even a couple months ago. Sometimes it's blow by, explosive finishes. While other times included more skilled and controlled moves. Including pump fakes and better footwork to create openings for scores.  With his offensive game expanding and the Millwood Falcon keeping the same defensive pride and tenacity, Barrett is on track to turn heads of college coaches next week and in July.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["2140733"],"_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":"Speed remains the number one thing that jumps off the page about Lowe's game. He's a blur in transition, with a burst that is uncommon. Especially paired with his stop on the dime ability that creates space for his consistent 15-18 foot jumper.  He's one of the few high school prospects with the true potential to turn into a true three level scorer at the next level.  And he's only just now finishing up his freshman year of high school.  On that front, once his bounce fully comes in. Look out.  He already gets great hangtime on drives and appears to be knocking on the door of a big time above the rim finishing package.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["2400905"],"_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":"Lee is quick and relentless with the ball in his hands.  The PCO Pirate has good straight line speed that allowed him to pull away in transition, with some shiftiness on halfcourt drives.   He put on a show on Saturday afternoon, with acrobatic and tough finishes all game long in a big win for his program against tough Texas competition.  Even as the game progressed and he got knocked down in the lane, he never backed down. While he did not shoot it well from the perimeter in this viewing, Lee has been marked down as a player to keep closer tabs on going forward.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["2409638"],"_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":"One of the surprises of the spring, Bauman continued to be a jack of all trades for the Next Level Swarm.  He's showing good lift and explosiveness with regular, more powerful dunks. He's an unselfish passer and connector.  His versatility also shows on the defensive end, with his broad shouldered frame allowing him to battle inside. While he has sneaky agility to cover perimeter players.  Add in quality three point shooting and Bauman is quickly turning into an appealing prospect as a hybrid forward.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66404e1d1d679"} /-->
