Tillman is one of the most athletic guards in North Louisiana and his energy and skill are perfect for next level competition. He is long and plays the game with extreme intensity. He can score from all three levels and defends at a high level as well. Tillman will be the lead guy for Franklin Parish and could lead them deep in the playoffs this upcoming season. </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":"Tavon Bell","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'5u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77243","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Franklin Parish","_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-6935f5ac52b42"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bell picked up right where he left off last season. He is dominant in the paint and on the boards. Even though he will likely take his talent to the next level for gridiron glory, he remains one of the best bigs I have watched this season. He is strong and poised around the goal, and really can't be stopped when he gets in position. His ability as a player are tied to his motor, and he will not be outplayed during the game. He is a big man with big game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2888784"],"_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-6935f5ac52b92"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lamb is a developing talent and every time I watch him play, he shows improvement. He has next-level size potential. His on-court attitude and visible coachability make him fun to watch because he is the perfect blue-collar ball player. He works hard on both sides of the ball and always makes plays. His 15 game points were highlighted by 9 in the third quarter when Franklin Parish needed another scorer. He delivers on every opportunity and can be tough to control on the boards. Solid performance by an up-and-coming prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1543679"],"_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-6935f5ac52bd8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hicks turned in a big-time performance vs Carroll, scoring 16 points and adding 17 rebounds. Hicks will be a key for Lincoln Prep as they have the pieces to make another deep run. Hicks is long and does all his work in the paint, especially with his rebounding. At 6'4 he has tons of potential for success and production, and this could be the start of his breakout season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2883422"],"_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-6935f5ac52c1b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Levingston is shaping up to be a force in the class of 2028. He is visibly bigger and stronger than he was a year ago, and starting the season, he has led Prep in scoring in each game. He is comfortable on or off the ball and plays the game with pace, making him a dual threat on the court. He scored 17 points with 8 assists, demonstrating his overall impact on the game and potential. Defensively, Levingston is elite, and that also makes him one to watch in this deep 2028 class. Prep is 3-1 to start the season earning big wins over Evangel and Carroll and Levingston is a big factor in those wins. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is just the first installment of the game day evaluations.
