At times Ben had flashes of guard-like skills taking the ball coast to coast converting layups at times. He was a consistent rebounder, often filling up that stat category throughout the tournament. Keeping possessions alive for his teammates made a huge difference against 1 Nation 16U which kept the lead up. Ben was a dominant force in the paint for Legacy Youth Basketball 16U all tournament long.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2426780"],"_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":"","_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-68369185d7643"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">During Garyn High's game against In And Out Elite 3SGB 2027 was filled with lights out shooting from the perimeter as he hit multiple off the catch. Throughout the game he stayed efficient from range, making a good percentage of those opportunities. Garyn finished with craftiness when driving to the basket using his skills to finesse layups around defenders at times. His scoring was very vital to the team which gave defense's problems.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2393254"],"_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-68369185d76af"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Trelyn Shepard plays with plenty of grit and toughness, especially in the paint bullying smaller defenders for paint touches. Defensively he can guard on the perimeter and inside the paint showing his versatility on that end of the floor. He can handle the ball well offensively as he brought the ball up the floor in half court settings and created driving lanes for himself. Trelyn finishes well with contact as well usually drawing a lot of it going up for layups.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":[2382010],"_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":2871788,"_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-68369185d7735"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tejay Daley is an aggressive downhill guard that finishes at the basket with finesse. Majority of his points came from him finishing in traffic during transition opportunities putting the In And Out Elite 3SGB 2027 defense on its heels. He gets his teammates involved often leading them to wide open looks from different areas of the floor. Defensively Tejay is an intense on and off ball defender making game changing hustle plays that gave his team an extra lift. Tejay exudes confidence within his game as he became very vocal as the game progressed and he backed it up with a great performance against In and Out Elite 2027.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
