He can pop threes from all over the court (3 3PM per game) and score off the bounce. His ability to change direction in a flash is impressive as is his mid-range game. Ashby's decision making on the fast break is flawless. He is also a fantastic live dribble passer. During his junior season Ashby is averaging 15.7 points per contest. However, over his last four games Ahsby has increased his production to 19.3 ppg. Included in his latest stretch of stellar play was a 25-point (7 threes) effort in a win over Northern Lebanon.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2251320"],"_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-679b75f338159"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The development of Johnson from an athletic, but raw prospect into a prolific scorer is one of the best skill improvement stories in the region. This season Johnson has proven that he is now a three-level half-court scoring machine who can also rebound and defend. He is averaging 21 points per game and recently scored 27 points on 5 made threes against Lancaster Country Day. Johnson (1,000+ points) has also posted several double doubles this season. With his length, speed, handles and bounce, Johnson thrives in transition too. On the break Johnson can finish with creative flair or simply punch it on an opponent's head. Earlier this winter, coaches from University of Delaware were in to watch Johnson.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1466556"],"_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-679b75f3381a2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lewis is a walking bucket who this season is destroying 1A opponents to the tune of 31.6 points per night. Last week he scored a season high 40 points (3 threes) against Salem Christian. This winter Lewis has posted 10 games of 30 or more points. Lewis recently eclipsed the 2,000-point scoring mark for his career. Lewis can splash triples from all around the arc, but he does the bulk of his scoring damage off the dribble. His quick first step and tight handles enable Lewis to blow past his defender and get int the lane for runners, floaters, and lay-ins. Plus, this crafty guard can put the ball on the floor and then slam on the breaks for a mid-range jumper. Lewis can also push the rock in transition for scores or assists.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1865353"],"_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-679b75f3381e7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Flying under the radar on the defending 3A state champion's roster is this multi-skilled guard prospect who stuffs the stat book. During his senior campaign, Thear is contributing 12 points, 4 assists and 3.5 rebounds per game. In DP's recent win over La Salle, Thear posted 27 points (4 for 4 on threes), 4 rebounds and 4 assists. Thear possesses an accurate jump shot with a quick release and range well beyond the three-point line. Once he has established his outside shooting, Thear will use a head / ball fake, followed by a straight-line drive to get to the hoop for a bucket. Thear also owns the speed, athleticism and finishing skills to produce points on the fast break. Back in the fall, Thear took visits to Widener University (D3) as well as Muhlenberg College (D3).</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
