Nailing a shot from the top of the arc. Even when he isn't dropping shots from outside Chappell knows how to run the play at the point. He possesses strong vision and is always looking for the open man, distributing the ball to his teammates with ease. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2523906"],"_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-680ee87e40761"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The other half of the Breakers back court, Smith showed a good ability to get down low and drive the lane. Getting to the basket with ease by putting on a solid spin move to go along with a fluid finish at the cup. Smith is aggressive in the defensive side of the ball as well, pressuring opponents to create turnovers. At one point getting the steal and converting a fastbreak opportunity at the other end. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2816391"],"_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-680ee87e40805"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mensink showed off an ability to hit from outside for the Rise. Nailing a corner three with a confident shot, Mensink didn't shy away from an open look. Always looking for an opportunity to generate offense the guard has the confidence to take shots from the perimeter and sink them from any location. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2818371"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2849579,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-680ee87e407af"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The 6'1 shooting guard utilized both his size and shooting skill on Sunday afternoon. First by nailing a three pointer from deep with strong form and a quick release, immediately getting another open look and nailing from three again. Rignell later pulled off an nifty pass in transition for an assist on a fastbreak opportunity. On defense Rignell played aggressively, ripping the ball away for a steal. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
