He defends the full 94 feet with intensity, making life difficult for opposing ball handlers. Joe is a high-level shooter from beyond the arc, capable of knocking down the three with confidence. He's also a willing passer who looks to get his teammates involved. His quick first step and crafty handle allow him to create space and break down defenses. Joe competes with a chip on his shoulder and never backs down from a challenge. Whether it's on offense or defense, Joe sets the tone with his toughness and competitive fire.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1543685"],"_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-688046888ef4b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dwight is a pure shooter with a smooth, pro-level jumper that demands attention. His confidence grows with the spotlight, and the bigger the game, the better he performs. In a high-stakes match-up, Dwight lit it up from beyond the arc, knocking down six three-pointers with ease. His quick release and deep range stretched the defense all night. Whether in transition or off the dribble, he found his rhythm and made defenders pay. Dwight's poise and scoring ability make him a dangerous weapon in any clutch situation. He's the a player who lives for the moment and delivers when it matters most.</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":2910599,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Ace Sears","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2030","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'8u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77246","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Jefferson Rise","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"Jazz Network ","_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-688046888f16b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ace was a standout performer this weekend, showcasing his all-around game against older competition. The speedy guard played with poise and confidence, demonstrating a high basketball IQ throughout. He knocked down shots consistently from beyond the arc, keeping defenders honest. Ace also created opportunities for his teammates, dishing out crisp assists and making the right reads. On the defensive end, he held his own with active hands and quick feet. What made his performance even more impressive. Was that he was playing up a grade level and never looked out of place. Ace continues to prove he's one to watch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
