The University of North Florida signee has made 45% of his shots from beyond the arc in his four seasons at the varsity level.

The 6'3 sophomore is making shots from beyond the arc at a 48% clip through 13 games for the 12-1 Tigers. He has a textbook release and good shot preparation which has helped him find good shots against quicker, more athletic defenders.     This high scoring point guard from South Florida is more than just a shot maker. Janov is very good with the basketball in his hands and is able to create his own offense. The junior is a crafty finisher in the paint while also shooting 53% from three point range so far this season.     One of the fastest rising prospects in the 2027 class, Orbe is a complete guard who can score in every way possible at the offensive end. But what's been most impressive 11 games has been his improvement from beyond the arc. He has gone from a 37% three point shooter his freshman year, to a 41% shooter his sophomore year and has already made 40 three point field goals at a 47% rate this season.     Krogg is next in a long line of talented Shark guard coached by headman Ben Wilson.

Crossley has a quick release with good shot preparation. He also is improving as a playmaker with the ball in his hands and is a willing defender.
