I've also noticed that he has a high IQ on the offensive end. If he's he's driving to the rack, he can put it up or drop it off to a teammate on the block. Anguiano is also capable of splashing in triples and jumpers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2819268"],"_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-67e59fbe45e8e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2819268' first='Quinn' last='Mickelson'] can beat opponents with his first step if they are overplaying him.

He was a great role player for them, and produced just over 2 steals a game. Which is good for 7th in the state for the 2028 class. Kiel helped out on offense a bit as well, and always battled for rebounds. Look for him to get more minutes next season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024-2025 Season Stats - 3.6 PPG, 2.4 RPG, 1.8 APG, 2.1 SPG</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2819226"],"_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-67e59fbe45f5b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2819226' first='Jayden' last='Anaya'] is a playmaker on offense, and knows how to utilize his ball-handling skills to create space.

If he can continue to develop as a shooter, he'll likely see his scoring average go way up. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">2024-2025 Season Stats - 5.4 PPG, 3.7 RPG</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
