A dynamic athletic with long arms, Hebert is an active defender that plays with great energy and can guard up and down a position. Offensively, he's turned himself into a reliable perimeter shooter that has deep range on his jumper. He's a good slasher, instinctive off ball cutter, and strong finisher at the rim. He's the type of wing athlete that can impact a game on both ends of the floor in the <em>Little East</em> and should be a positive addition at <strong><em>USM</em></strong>.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1586726"],"_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-66860a2aaf4cd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ayles, a battle tested product of the <em>NEPSAC</em>, announced that he will attend <strong><em>Trinity College</em></strong>. A big guard that can really score the basketball, Ayles can play either backcourt spot and has a reputation as a big time shot maker. He's a capable secondary ball-handler that has shown the ability to operate as a decision maker in ball screens. He's a quality scorer in the mid-range and from behind the arc, has deep ranger on his jumper, and does a good job of quickly getting his feet set on the catch. A high IQ prospect, he knows how to play angles on the defensive end and is a quality rebounder for his position. He fits the bill as the type of big scoring guard that has had success in the <em>NESCAC</em> recently and is a quality recruiting win for <strong><em>Trinity</em></strong>.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1489336"],"_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-66860a2aaf522"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Walker, a big lefty guard with a versatile skillset, came off the board with a commitment to the <strong><em>University of North Alabama</em></strong>. A long and athletic prospect, Walker shines with the ball in his hands. He has great body control, is shifty off the bounce, and utilizes an array of jab stabs and dribble moves to create space on his way to the basket. He's a quick jumper that doesn't shy away from contact at the rim and really impressed as a cutter off the ball. Defensively, his length allows him to guard multiple positions and at just 6'5", he's a quality shot blocker with good timing and instincts from the help side. As a prospect, he oozes potential and should only continue to improve with added strength and repetitions. The <em>Atlantic Sun</em> is a quality mid-major league, but I'd still expect Walker to eventually develop into one of the better athletes and perimeter defenders in the league at <em><strong>North Alabama</strong></em>.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2387333"],"_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-66860a2aaf566"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">White, a hybrid forward that was a big time scorer at <em>CRL</em> this winter, announced that he will attend <strong><em>Lasell University</em></strong>. The big lefty is as versatile of a front-court prospect as there was in the <em>MIAA</em> this winter. White can operate as a point foward or hang out in the paint where he can be a low post scorer. He's improved his body and conditioning over the last twelve months and that's allowed him to take his game to the next level. He has good floor vision, the ability to pass with either hand off the bounce, and can consistently knock down shots from behind the arc. He has impressive lateral mobility, shows great pursuit of the ball on the defensive glass, and can switch in ball screen action. He's got a good landing spot at <em><strong>Lasell</strong></em> and could eventually develop into one of the better forwards in the <em>GNAC</em>.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
