His range, which is uncanny and stretches out to the logo, is becoming one of the most lethal aspects of his skill set. Sharum played an efficient game from his dribbling to his scoring, making the most of his chances, showing a high shooting percentage, and dictating the game based on smart decisions to capitalize on scoring opportunities.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2194499"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2411934,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66a4b78774c6d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2194499' first='Quinton' last='Wilson'] made his bucket-getting presence felt with his ability to read defenses and understand spacing, showcasing his catch-and-shoot prowess, deep range, and scoring versatility. His shooting ability proved to be one of the most lethal aspects of his game. His confidence in his shooting skills was evident, judging by the poise of his release. He had a first half with four made three-pointers, all from beyond the college distance, demonstrating his potential as a pure shooting marksman as time goes on.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2242995"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66a4b78774c7a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">King McMillan stayed ready for kick-out passes as a spot-up shooting option and consistent threat from beyond the arc, particularly in transition. His ability to quickly set his feet and release high-arching shots kept defenses on alert, making him a vital component of his team's offense. This constant readiness and sharp shooting stretched defenses and opened up the floor for his teammates, creating more opportunities for driving lanes and inside scoring.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":2191914,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Pierce Paul","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2029","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"LivOn Select 2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66a4b78774c73"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">2029 prospect Peirce Paul played up with the 28s and started the game out hot and ready, knocking down long-range bombs consecutively from various spots outside. He caught my attention the first time he touched the ball, inbounding underneath the basket to the top of the key before utilizing the pindown screen to pop up for the catch-and-shoot three-pointer, nailing the jumper with impeccable left-right footwork and a snappy release, letting it fly so deep he was near the sideline. This marked his territory and stretched the defense thin from the jump.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2194549"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66a4b78774c65"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2408081' first='Aiden' last='Clark'] consistently took charge when his team needed a bucket, putting the team on his back and carrying the scoring load from all three levels, both off the catch and off the bounce. He pounded the ball with a purpose, using each dribble to move closer to the hoop, beating defenders with explosive between-the-legs crossovers and up-and-under step-throughs, making his game unpredictable.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
