The sophomore was facilitating much of the Gators offense early on, and had some crafty passes that led to some easy buckets for his teammates. Carter also caught fire from downtown, hitting four 3's. He finished with 18 points and Green Valley got the win, 84-29.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2461766"],"_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-677746432bc49"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The lengthy Del Sol guard displayed some play making abilities in their matchup with Silver Valley. On offense, he used his speed on multiple occasions to get to the cup. On defense, he was jumping the passing lanes and applying good pressure when Del Sol was in there press. Unfortunately the Dragons didn't get the win, but I liked the way he played.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stats - 20 points </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2357805"],"_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-677746432bc9a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2357805' first='Caynen' last='Abittan'] displayed his scoring prowess against Green Valley. He used some deceptive ball-handling to shake his defender on a few of his drives to the rim and splashed a couple of long range 3-pointers. I was also a fan of the way he competed until the very end.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stats - 14 Points </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2672434"],"_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-677746432bce2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2672434' first='Da'Quan' last='Brown'] used his athleticism to pester Lake Mead Christian Academy throughout the game on defense.

He made some clever steals and deflections that threw the Trojans out of their rhythm on offense. In addition to his defensive efforts, Jackson hit a couple of shots from way beyond the arc.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stats - 14 points </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
