Belvin is a skilled W/F tweener that can put the ball on the floor, pull up smoothly for midrange jumpers, finish with either hand around the basket, and keep the ball high on drives to the rim to avoid turnovers on his way to the basket. Belvin sees the floor well and dribbles to open space in the defense, love his creativity and the way he's able to change directions on a dime to get to his spots in the halfcourt. Should be one of the better players in Baltimore County this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2892679"],"_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-6867304cedc49"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">-The senior shooter has done a great job of maximizing his opportunities this season as a wing that can really stretch the floor for a team with his shooting. Abraham has improved his ball-handling to attack closeouts more efficiently and is finding opportunities to chip in on the offensive glass as well. Expect his recruitment to pick up as local small colleges notice his value as a shooter that gets his own within the flow of the game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2113258"],"_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-6867304cedcd1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">-Like the flashes of upside that I've seen from the Ohio transfer so far this summer. Shoultz is a high level athlete that can really impact games with his slashing, offensive rebounding, and defense. If he can put on some weight and really lock in on the defensive end of the floor-- I think the DM coaching staff can really develop him into one of the premier perimeter defenders in the area. I expect him to play a key role for the Stags this season as they find opportunities to deploy him as a disruptive force this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2876265"],"_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-6867304cedd44"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">-Liked the aggression and diverse skillset from the rising senior guard on the circuit playing with Team Signs. Griffin impacts the game as a physical ballhandler that bullies his way to his spots in the halfcourt but can also make plays from the wings as a passer and shooter. Griffin takes pride in forcing dribble pick-ups and turnovers on the defensive end of the floor and isn't afraid to scale up a position or two to guard big wings or forwards. Should be an impact transfer in the DCIAA this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2886343"],"_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-6867304ceddc0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">-Saw Zedak for the first time this summer with his HS team in the MBCA tournament and came away impressed by his unselfish game. Zedak serves as a good connector on the wing, unselfishly collecting several hockey assists and directing traffic from the top of the key. He uses his size well to chip in and steal some offensive rebounds in each game but his real value comes as a 3 point shooter that can knock down open looks. Zedak scored in double figures in each of the last 8 games to close out a productive summer league season in the CHSL, expect him to be a key cog for the Vikes this year in Montgomery County. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
