Jaylin can hit the mid-range jumper and occasional three. His athleticism allows him to get to the rack off the dribble, showcasing nice footwork with spin moves. Sweat plays above the rim, a threat to crash in for putback dunks and alley-oops. When Jaylin's motor is revved, he's a difference maker 15-feet and in on both ends.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2444510"],"_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-68273f9624d4b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Alofe has great length and quick feet. Emmanuel moves well laterally when guarding on the perimeter, experienced defending small guards. He does a great job using his wingspan and open his hips to beat ball handlers to the spot to keep them out of the lane. In the lane, Alofe is a springy shot blocker that covers a lot of ground. Emmanuel scores around the rim with slams, but is also able to work the mid-range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2385369"],"_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-68273f9624daa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The lefty is an inside-out threat. He's got a strong frame which he uses to bang inside to create separation to score with hook shots and short floaters. Rogers can net the three and the mid-range jumper. Dayden should be the go-to guy for the Leopards his senior season which could lead to a monster season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2457321"],"_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-68273f9624df7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hamilton does a little bit of everything. His versatility is impressive. He's a great rebounder and shot blocker when anchored inside. On offense, he showcases his well-rounded skill set, a solid outside shooter with quick feet attacking the basket. Sean scores with his back to the basket and is a real threat in pick-and-roll and pick-and-pop sets. He fills up box scores nightly.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2438604"],"_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-68273f9624e3d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Southpaw has great tools to work with. Lean but strong around the basket. Catches lobs and finishes through contact. Stretches the floor with his outside shot. Starting to earn football offers which could steal his future away from the hardwood.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
