Even against other elite competition Felesi thrives. He had his 28 PT, 8 REB, 4 AST, 5 STL game recently against AZ Compass where he led all scorers by more than 10 and dominated defensively. A truly elite level talent that is exciting to watch carry the load of an offense going against great defenses night in and night out. He can score from anywhere and with his physical tools he'll be a name you hear again. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2218132"],"_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-692c89f81f911"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tobler is a true triple threat offensively. When he has a defender 1-on-1 it's hard to know what he's going to do, but it happens fast and efficient. He's quick to make a move to the basket or just pull it over the defender. The Junior is a consistent contributor to the Farmington offense averaging 14PPG so far. They will continue to run through Tobler and his elite 3-point ability will make him a focal point on the opposing teams scouting report all year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2809208"],"_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-692c89f81f996"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">An absolute stud and a joy to watch. Mulford is a young kid who has extreme range on his shot. He hit eight 3-point shots against Hunter High School and had a total of 31 points. This is a player who as a freshman is scoring at will on his Varsity squad. It's unbelievable to watch and I can't wait to see how his game changes going into the rest of his High School career. He's also grown to 5'10" and could end up being a bit bigger which will only help him more.</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":"[player_tooltip player_id='1724368' first='Karter' last='Miller']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77244","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Layton","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"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-692c8c7ea1c24"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1724368' first='Karter' last='Miller'] is a guy that has come into Layton and been a great scorer the last two seasons. He's a true facilitator for the Lancers and is great at getting his teammates going to begin games. I almost expect him to have 20 points and 10 assists by the end of every game because of how often he's mentally ahead of the defense. Making each basket easy, one after the other for his team; he really does it all. A great shooter, playmaker, and off the dribble shotmaker. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
