He is great at playing at his pace and getting to his spots for shots. He has a great pull-up game when attacking, including a lot of different types of finishes around the basket. Bell has a smooth 3pt shot that makes the defense guard him. Has a great feel to where his teammates are and is able to make passes through defenders in the paint. Bell is a really good player to lead any teams offense.","_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":"Zavion Vaughn","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"5'11u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"77244","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Arkadelphia","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"The 5'11 combo guard has a knockdown 3pt shot. It doesn't matter where he is on the court he is in range to shoot. Vaughn also uses his balance very well attacking the basket, he is good at taking long strides and going up strong through contact. Defensively he is like a cornerback going for any pass he can get his hands on. His quickness allows him to take the pass and get out in transition for a layup before anyone can catch him.","_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='2627049' first='Jordan' last='Rogers']","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"77244","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Jonesboro","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"Arkansas Assault","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"The do it all guard is one of my top players to keep an eye on going into the 2024-25 season. Rogers has a certain attitude and confidence to his game that makes him stand out. The lefty can really make plays happen from anywhere. His off the dribble 3 or hesitation going left are huge staples to his game. He uses his length well around the rim to get past longer defenders. He lets the game come to him and is never trying to force a play.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["2393218"],"_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":"Wise is an all around guard that thrives making plays for others. He makes great reads in transition and always is looking for the 2nd or 3rd read in the play. The guard also can get his own when he's looking for it. He has a really strong pull up game and also attacks the basket strong out of pick and rolls. The facilitating guard on this list. He is always a threat to get 7+ assist with double digit points every game.","_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='2762075' first='Sabian' last='Graham']","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"77244","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"Jonesboro","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_4_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Graham is a great scorer and facilitator. Once he gets t0 the paint the defense is in trouble because Graham can do it all. He is great at scoring in the paint with runners or hard layups, but he also can make any pass. Always making the right play whether it's a drop off to the rolling big or a kick out to the spot up shooter, Graham knows where to get the ball. The smooth guard can pass or finish with either hand making him even harder to guard. Everyone definitely needs to keep [player_tooltip player_id='2762075' first='Sabian' last='Graham'] on their watch list for the upcoming season.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66439774db467"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations":"","_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66439774db4b2"} /-->
