As one of the primary options for [program_tooltip program_id='2078709' first='Team' last='Final'] 15s, McKie has been able to showcase his full offensive skill set. McKie has destroyed opponents with his transition scoring. He has caused serious match-up issues in the half-court by popping jumpers (including threes) and producing points off the dribble as well as from the dunker spot. Plus, McKie has crashed the offensive glass and then converted on those second chances. On defense, McKie has dominated the boards and triggered fast breaks with his precise outlet passes. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2633151"],"_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-68135b68db835"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Last weekend while running with the NJ Shoreshots at the Jersey Jam Fest, Niu proved that his athleticism and agility are vastly underrated. Niu thrived in the open court by pushing the rock or by filling a lane. In both roles, Niu navigated his way to the rim for finishes through contact. He also capped off a couple of fast breaks with dunks. Niu got to the rack off the dribble on half-court possessions too. When Niu was not scoring in transition or off dribbles drives, he was popping triples from all around the arc and knocking down mid-range jumpers. College coaches will love Niu's high IQ and enormous wingspan.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1888855"],"_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-68135b68db87e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Shaffer posted a tremendous junior season (17 ppg. &amp; 6 rpg.) and was a standout during the April HGSL slate. Thus, it should not be a surprise that he is a prospect to watch here in May. He is a versatile guard prospect with an automatic jump shot, a knack for rebounding and a high IQ. As a perimeter shooter, Shaffer's quick trigger and non-stop off ball movements present serious issues for opponents. At 6'4” and with decent hops, Shaffer has no problem shooting over defenders or even double teams. If needed, Shaffer can slide to the point guard spot and provide secure ball handling as well as creative distributing. As a bonus to hos scoring skills, Shaffer is one of top rebounding guards we have seen this spring.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2473692"],"_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-68135b68db8c2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">After a breakout junior season in which he averaged 10.4 points per game and dropped a season high 24 points (5 threes) against Parkland, Wise has been crushing it on the HGSL spring circuit. At the Pitt Jam Fest and then at the Jersey Jam Fest, Wise has displayed a well-rounded playmaking skill set. In the half-court, he has scored at every level and facilitated for teammates. His 3-point shooting and skip passing have been especially impressive. Wise has also piloted the fast break for scores and assists. His ability to absorb contact in transition and still complete the play is remarkable. At the other end of the court, Wise has shown to be a tenacious on ball defender.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
