A long and lean scoring guard, Yhomby became a primary scoring option at BC High this winter. He's capable of getting it done at all three levels, but does a great job of using his length to finish at the rim. He can play on or off the ball and has a quick first step off the bounce. Defensively, he has the ability to guard all three perimeter spots and flashes quick feet and the ability to keep ball-handlers in front of him and out of the paint. He joins a strong program at <strong><em>Daemen</em></strong> where he'll have a chance to make an impact in the always competitive <em>East Coast Conference</em>.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1529125"],"_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-66c7e509cc6c6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Altman came off the board when he announced that he will attend the <strong><em>University of Pennsylvania</em></strong>. One of New England's top perimeter scorers, Altman has been terrific at <em>Rivers</em> over the last two seasons. He's a big guard that can operate on or off the ball, scores at all three levels, and makes quality decisions in the half-court. He's competitive, tough, and has some nice athletic pop. He's as complete of an offensive prospect as there is in New England's class of 2025. Defensively, he has the strength to guard up a position and does a great job on the defensive glass. He's done a lot of winning the last few years and should only continue to do so this winter. He's a terrific recruit for <strong><em>Penn</em></strong> and ultimately, could develop into one of the top scorers in the <em>Ivy League</em>.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1552715"],"_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-66c7e509cc709"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cuevas made his college plans official when he pledged to attend <strong><em>Bowdoin College</em></strong>. A big time scorer at <em>Pingree</em>, Cuevas was one of last summer's top stock risers on the travel circuit. He's a bigger guard that knows how to get to his spots off the bounce, has the strength to finish through contact, and continuously plays at his own pace. He has a great feel for the game, is a crafty paint finisher, and does a great job of elevating in the mid-range. He's the type of prospect that can score in bunches when he gets going. Defensively, he shows the strength and toughness to guard in the post when switched onto bigs and has the lateral mobility to keep perimeter ball-handlers in front of him. He has the chance to make an immediate impact at <strong><em>Bowdoin</em></strong> and could develop into one of the <em>NESCAC's</em> top scorers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2325734"],"_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-66c7e509cc747"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Clark wrapped up his recruitment with a commitment to <strong><em>Princeton University</em></strong>. A lefty-combo forward that has continued to get better and better, Clark capped off a terrific summer with the <em>Middlesex Magic</em> with his commitment. He has great length, has a good feel for the game as a passer, and can operate as a secondary playmaker in the right scheme. Known as a strong shooter, he proved this summer to be a more well-rounded scorer. He battles on the boards, shows some toughness in the paint, and is a high IQ defender that can guard multiple positions. He's only gotten better as he's gotten strong, with the game seemingly slowing down for him. This should be a terrific match for prospect and school, with <strong><em>Princeton</em></strong> getting a prospect with high upside and still untapped potential that could develop into one of the <em>Ivy League's</em> most versatile forwards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
