Made one of the largest rankings jump in the '26 class. High-level scorer from any level and he get to any spot on the floor. Runs the pick-and-roll well, patiently finding his spot to attack. Quran does well at keeping the defense at a disadvantage while he looks for avenues to get into his best look. Takes shots from anywhere on the floor and knocks them down with consistency. Quran is Mt. Zion's main source of scoring and he is confident in his ability each game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1588138"],"_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-686726dbaa186"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">63 --&gt; 58</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Scoring 20 has become easy for Greg Taylor and he has shown that all summer. First got things started with Thrill over pre-live and circuit events. Showed early on that he can be the No. 1 option on a winning team. Greg takes no shortage of shots as creates so well for himself off the dribble. Greg operates well from the permieter, gets into his two-dribble pullup virtually at any time. Becoming a pretty potent scorer right in front of our eyes as he enters his senior year. Nothing he can't do offensively, and his play is being rewarded with another bump up in the rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1588147"],"_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-686726dbaa1ce"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">76 --&gt; 71</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kemuel compliments Greg in the backcourt well with his dynamic shooting and playmaking ability. He defends hard as well, getting steals and deflections at a high rate each game. He can sit on the perimeter and light up the scoreboard if the defense allows him to catch-and-shoot with regularity. Kemuel also excels at finding his teammates and keeping the ball in motion. Does a great job at finding and taking the best shot available on the offensive possession. Effective player whether starting or coming off the bench, produces just the same. One of Pallotti's most integral pieces to success.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2639985"],"_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-686726dbaa213"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">94 --&gt; 80</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Amonte has taken a big leap so far this summer, earning himself a spot in the top 80 after this update. Produces in a big way for Springdale running the 1, keeping the offense flowing and the ball moving. He can get into his iso-game and create for himself well as a small guard, but he can create for others just as well or better. Amonte darts through the lane and keeps his head up to find his open teammates. Finds shooters all game along the perimeter and dumps the rock inside to dunkers. Dominates in transition getting up the floor before anyone and finishing at the basket. Big senior season coming up for Amonte as he takes the reigns as the lead guard.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2640011"],"_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-686726dbaa257"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">111 --&gt; 92</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Uriah seems to improve each time he plays in front of our scouts. Left a great mark this summer to this point with his sweet scoring touch and effectiveness all-around the floor. Uriah can knock down shots off the dribble or fadeaway in the mid-post now with comfort. Still uses his size and speed blend to mix his way to the basket. Uriah utilizes his smooth handle to get by defenders and get to his spots. Really improving dramatically with his shot creativity in the midrange area. Always plays hard on defense, coming over from anywhere on the court and blocking shots.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2528191"],"_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-686726dbaa29b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">119 --&gt; 100</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jordan is a high-energy forward that can score from the post or from the short mid-range. His shot has improved as Jordan has the confidence and ability to shoot from deep. His defense is up to par, effects shots at the basket and can defend the ball. Jordan can step out and shoot the ball from deep and has improved his touch since my last time seeing him. Makes timely plays for the team whenever he's on the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2722713"],"_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-6867534c0bf24"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">129 --&gt; 105</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Marlon has had his name buzzing all summer long. Dropping off 20+ point games against anyone who steps up to face him. Scores at the basket or from the perimeter alike. Marlon is starting to complete his game and learning when to take certain shots. The team looks to be comfortable with Marlon at the helm and he looks the part as the go-to. Can score off-the-dribble at a high level and starting to read defensive coverages better now as he enters his final year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
