He had 23, 25, 26, and 29 points in games, getting better and upping the total as the games progressed. He showed his poise, IQ, and well-rounded skills when it came down to handling the ball, passing, scoring, and rebounding, a total package.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2021920"],"_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-682bf4c2947eb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fowlkes created looks in space for himself and his teammates, as well as he attacked the rim and finished with finesse inside. He makes agile moves with the ball as he attacks from the perimeter with the ability to change pace and direction well. He is an athletic playmaking guard who showed his ability to create.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Vance Cunningham","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Mills","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-682bf4c29488d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Vance put his playmaking skills to use in multiple games, sharing the ball after drawing attention on drives. He scored 17+ points back-to-back, showing physicality with the ball inside the lane. His speed stood out as he attacked on straight line drives, beating defenders off the dribble. He was able to knock down catch and shoot looks from behind the arc with good fluid form on his shot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2028: Breakout Freshman to Note</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jordan Nicholson - Crafty, quick shooter shows experience with heads-up plays.

Averaged 14.7 ppg over 4 games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Trendon Northcross - Fast, athletic, small guard with good shooting touch. 14 ppg in 2 games, both wins.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2576206' first='Meisha' last='Croutch'] - Playmaker who can play offense inside and out, with or without the ball. Defensive-minded.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Aiden Davis - Two-way 3&amp;D guy who attacks the middle, plays the right way.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2407650' first='Elijah' last='Burgess'] - Big/swing man with face-up four potential.
