He's quick and plays with great anticipation for steals, then quickly turns defense into offense. Stepped up and provided scoring when needed during Unity's run to the 17U title. Including clutch scoring in the semifinal victory over the Servants. Then repeated those efforts in the title game. There's always room on the court for plus athletes, who compete and do the dirty work. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2399746"],"_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-683fc0093cb00"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">While in the second Servant game watched, Lartey showed he can score it a bit. He first caught the attention for his effort and pride that he plays with on the defensive end. Type of guard who will pick a pocket, race to the score and immediately pick up 94 feet. Great end to end effort also led to grabbing more than his fair share of rebounds for a smaller guard. Another multi-sport athlete, who's competitive nature is a good long time sign.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2218085"],"_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-683fc0093cb8c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Strongly built guard, who has some flair and brings some excitement to the game. Had a sick behind the back pass in transition. While also having the ability to finish at the rim with creative release points and high arcing shots on "giant killer" finishes. Nice mix of getting his and also getting his teammates good looks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2790511"],"_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-683dd24c7bf24"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tough minded guard, who stood out on Saturday. Quick hands to force on the ball steals and generally pressuring the opposition. Picks up 94 feet. Willing to hustle after and get on the floor for loose balls. Good mix of quickness and toughness as an aggressive player, on both ends of the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2391929"],"_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-683fc0093cc2b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mackey impressed by putting on his hard hat, and simply going to work around the rim. Cleaned up on putbacks at the rim thanks to his size and desire to get on the glass. Has a touch of skill, with a spin and score. Then a nice pass out of a post up to a cutting teammate. Even saw him calling out a screen late on Sunday, showing his communication and defensive awareness. Checks a lot of little boxes in order to make a noticeable impact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2505057"],"_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-683fc0093cc90"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sharpshooting specialist, who hit five threes in one contest this past Saturday for Southern Assault Texhoma. Brings valuable floor spacing, along with his microwave ability to catch fire quickly. Rim must look big after the first make. Can help out some with the ball handling responsibilities, but has settled into a role that features his stellar shooting. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
