He can finish with length around the rim, does a nice job of setting solid screens, and also shows the ability to attack the rim in straight line drives.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2882078"],"_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-68d959fea7d88"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McGovern, a forward out of <em>Marblehead High School</em>, checks into the rankings at <strong><em>#89</em></strong> overall and <strong><em>#11</em></strong> among the <em>power forwards</em>. McGovern does a bit of everything on the offensive end of the floor, showing the ability to operate both inside and outside of the paint. He's got the physicality needed to play through contact around the rim, a good feel for hard rolls and short rolls out of ball screens, and touch out to the three point line. Defensively, he's super long and uses his length to make an impact in passing lanes and to protect the rim at a high level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2964842"],"_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-68d959fea7e26"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Haran, a forward out of the <em>Wheeler School</em>, checks into the rankings at <strong><em>#100</em></strong> overall and <strong><em>#16</em></strong> among the <em>power forwards</em>. Haran has a strong 6'5" frame that allows him to hold his ground in the paint on both ends of the floor. He does a nice job of establishing position on post ups, has a reliable set of hands, and is capable of scoring in a variety of ways with his back to the basket. On the other end of the floor, he does a nice job of forcing opponents to catch farther from the hoop than they'd like, holds his box outs, and has great pursuit of the basketball off the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2964847"],"_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-68d959fea7eb7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Peck, a forward out of <em>Sheehan High School</em>, checks into the rankings at <strong><em>#107</em></strong> overall and <strong><em>#18</em></strong> among the <em>power forwards</em>.
