is a hard-working prospect who puts his time in on the court and in the weight room.  The strong-bodied CG is always pushing himself to become better and is a kid who just loves the game.  He is a great 2-way player who rebounds the ball very well on each end of the floor.  His size allows him to guard multiple positions and affect the game in a number of ways.  Louzao has really stepped up his scoring, where he has become more aggressive around the rim and has really developed his jump shot, where he has turned into a tremendous 3-point shooter.  Look for Zack to continue his already hot start to the summer and take it right through the start of the season.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"Austin

Louzao, Zack's brother, has shown tremendous strides in his game as well.  The 6'2u0022 CG is also off to a hot summer and continues to grow his game, where the two push each other both on and off the court.  Austin can score in bunches, both inside and out.  He has really grown his mid-range game and continues to shoot the ball very well from behind-the-arc.  He is an above average rebounder, who likes to turn defense into offense and get out and run.  He's a strong, athletic kid who doesn't take a play off and gives 110% each time he steps on the floor.  Keep an eye Austin as he continues to fine tune his game and become an all-around prospect.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"Elijah

is a talented guard who just loves the game, and you can tell  has fun being out on the court.  The 5'10u0022 PG is a lockdown defender who won't back down from any assignment and takes pride in his defense.  He has great knowledge of the game, and is a tremendous teammate who will do whatever is needed to help the team win.  Dantley has excellent handles and looks to push the ball and get out and run.  He's an aggressive guard who isn't afraid take it to the hole, and has a smooth stroke from the outside, where he shoots the 3-ball at very high rate.  Look for Dantley to have a productive summer and carry it right into the 2024-25

CSN big man continues to develop his game and is becoming a name to know in the SWFL area.  London is a tremendous rebounder on both ends of the floor, and has good length where he is able to alter shots and be a presence in the middle.  He's an above average post-player who is still fine tuning his game, but has developed a solid mid-range game to compliment his play down low.  London is great passer from the post position, and plays the game hard and with energy every time he touches the floor.  London is a great compliment to CSN's strong guard play, and a prospect to keep an eye on as his stock continues to rise.","_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":"Mac

is a tough-nosed guard who just knows the game.  He's a smart player who is an asset on both ends of the court.  He can guard multiple positions and is a great rebounder from the guard position.  Rubicco has above-average handles and has no fear attacking the basket and finishing at the rim.  He has a solid outside game, where he shoots both the mid-range and 3-point shot effectively.  He does a lot of the little things, whether he's finding the open man, taking a charge, or just getting on the floor for a loose ball, he plays the game hard.  Keep an eye on Rubicco as he continues to develop his game over the summer and into next season.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66426dc961968"}
