Have seen him thrive as an off the ball shooter, but for the Bobcats his ability to be an one man offense will help them this upcoming season. Has great short area quickness and the handles to match. Can leave opponents guessing on if he's going to the rim, or pulling up in front of their faces. Operates in the mid-range well to compliment his long range bombing abilities. With signs of electrifying ways to his game, Mitchell could be a box office player in the future. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2436782"],"_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-68e6e2f8970b8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A 918 bucket getter, who is putting out impressive tape. The lefty has an effortless looking shot, with good rotation and is comfortable shooting on or off the ball. Like any good modern shooter, he's locked in on corner threes. On the ball, he has a solid crossover and some burst to get defenders on their heels before pulling. And defenders better not go under any ball screens. Has a pitbull like frame for a smaller guard, which should make him a strong driver as he matures. Would like to see more fluidity to his dribbles and movements. Which would really unlock even more scoring capability if he's smoother and quicker with his handles.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2876722"],"_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-68e7fcd8f1d34"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Good size and even better wingspan for a scoring guard. Finishes high and cleanly with his jumper. Utilizes jabsteps, pumpfakes and other subtle but effective moves to create space for his jumper against close outs. Had a strong spring and summer with Team Oklahoma, setting the stage for a potential breakout sophomore campaign with the Outlaws. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2831751"],"_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-68e6e2f8971c4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A small school long range bomber. He caught the eye of the PrepHoops network during grassroots season. A quick check of his Hudl shows he was torching the nets during his freshman campaign as well. Regularly hitting three plus triples a game. With deep range to 25+ feet on some of them. Looked to be more of a pure spot up threat as a freshman, interested to see how his overall game expands heading into year two.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2868484"],"_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-68e6e2f89721f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Smith already has one State Championship ring and will be looking to add more for a high scoring Calumet squad. His ability to stretch the floor and also hit in the mid-range is a big part of the points the Chieftans are able to consistently put Played a strong role as a freshman for last year's run, with double digit games, including being a big contributor in a classic against Okarche. Along with his shooting, he has a small frame and plays smart on defense. Helping out with rebounds and forcing turnovers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2831855"],"_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-68e6e2f897179"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Name to check on this winter for the Wildcats. Shooting is often a ticket to playing time for underclassmen. And the range and form Shadix brings should help deliver him the chance to change games as a pure sniper. Already solid as an off the ball mover, continuing to work hard in transition and moving in the halfcourt will help fit into the flow of a Cashion team that is usually able of putting up the points.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
