The left-handed guard plays at tiny Thornwell Charter located in Clinton a Class 1A school in the Upstate. Zaylen made quite a First Impression here today. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Zaylen was able to penetrate-kick into the paint and find an open man. He really saw the floor well and was able to utilize the old school bounce pass along the way on several occasions. He kept defenders honest with his jump shot from time to time. Zaylen played well going to the basket and looking to make plays. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2554843"],"_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-66df3cb4dacee"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Walls is just another piece to the puzzle for Head Coach Tony Harrell and the Yellow Jackets. Aidan really showed good explosion to the basket at times. He was able to get the rock downhill in a hurry. Aidan can create his own shot on the floor and was able to drop some perimeter jumpers along the way today.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Aidan brings a full effort every time out today and never looked to take a play off. Look for Aidan to contribute some minutes this season for the Yellow Jackets. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2555248"],"_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-66df3cb4dad3e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Smith was a nice surprise from the [program_tooltip program_id='2078736' first='Lowcountry' last=''] here today. Kiedis really shines out on the wing and seems to be a very athletic and agile player. He was able to put the ball on the deck and drive it at times here today. Kiedis plays well away from the ball and always remains active on the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Smith has a nice touch from the foul line and really shows to play the game with some bounce. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2534819"],"_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-66df3cb4dad98"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kelly really came out on fire today here in the 3 on 3 games to start the day. Hatch was able to finish with left-hand at the bucket on a handful situations here today. Kelly is a long and rangy young man already and still has plenty of growing to do it looks like. He plays active on both ends of the floor and was able to connect on a few short jumpers here today. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":[2559297],"_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-66df450c68a53"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sanders is certainly a new name here in the Palmetto State this coming season. Noah has landed in the Midlands at Ridge View via Norway. Sanders already has a good look and size to him for his young age. Noah felt comfortable playing both guard spots in the backcourt. He has good length and feel for the game already. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Noah will be a great addition to an already very talented roster for the Blazers this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stay here all week long with coverage from the Prep Hoops Carolinas Freshman and The Carolinas Expo. <strong><em>SUBSCRIBE to the site today. #RecruitThePalmettoState</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
