He's a long, athletic guard who defends hard, competes every possession, and does the little things. Offensively, he's unselfish and knows how to get downhill, draw defenders, and kick it. He also plays with energy and fits well in an up-tempo system. I'd love to see him in a showcase where he can match up with top guards and let his motor and length speak for itself. Good spot to prove himself. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2392035"],"_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-689226f2ccaca"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Waits is a strong-bodied guard who plays with a chip on his shoulder. He's aggressive attacking the rim, uses his physicality well, and isn't afraid to get into defenders. He shows signs of being a capable on-ball defender and brings intensity on both ends that can affect the game. He's one of those guys who could rise quickly in a competitive setting, and I want to get eyes on how his game translates against other high-level sophomores.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2830147"],"_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-689226f2ccb46"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Banister has bounce, burst, and a scorer's mindset, which bodes well in a showcase setting. He's a wing who gets to his spots and finishes tough around the basket. You can tell he's wired to compete, and he shows flashes of making plays off the dribble. I would love to see him go head-to-head in a showcase setting because he plays with confidence and swagger, and it's time to see how he stacks up among his peers statewide.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2823250"],"_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-689226f2ccbbd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nelson is a guard you'll want to track. He's smart, composed, and plays the game with purpose. He knows how to pick his spots and doesn't force the issue, and that is exactly what you want in a young lead guard. I'm curious how assertive he can be as a scorer, and if he can run the team without a system and a showcase is the perfect setting to watch him take on more responsibility and test himself against top-tier competition. He can be a name that pops and get more on the radar with a big showing. </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":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Dom Lampert","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"D'Evelyn","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_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-689226f2cccbb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lampert can flat-out shoot it and has steadily grown into more of a playmaker. He's a confident spot-up threat who spaces the floor and understands when to make the extra pass. He's progressing and deserves a look in a more competitive setting. At a showcase, we want to see how his shooting translates with longer closeouts and quicker defenders. He has the tools to thrive and help stretch the floor, and we want to see it start to come together.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
