Effective rising up for quick pull-ups and floaters in traffic, the guard is rarely fazed by tight contests from inside the arc. Even more impactful around the rim, he finished numerous attempts through immediate contests down in the paint. Defensively, his frame and quickness paired with the quick instincts make him an especially dependable perimeter defender at the point of attack. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1509237"],"_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-6684adedb1cf7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Basquez brings excellent defensive tools to defend 1 through 3, adding to Smoky Hill's notable defensive versatility.
