The future Fairfield Stags will make their fan base very happy. Has a nice stroke from three but a power game inside. A physical force in the paint. An excellent passer from the wing or high post. Shows great vision. Many writeups on him. From me so I will focus today that he is a lot more comfortable now handling the ball and passing it in the open which gives him another tremendous skill to go with all the other skillsets he possesses on the floor.     Excellent Defender. Real nice stroke from beyond the arc. Quick release with a nice fluid motion. Came off a pin down ready to catch and shoot. Moves really well without the ball.     if you read the game recap he his hard to deny on the boards. Showing off his athleticism he had a nice tap in for early bucket high flying from the wing. Showed a shot fake baseline drive that ended with a flush. Can hit the three and will be an inside out force in this league in years to come.     Real nice looking freshman. Very smooth with the ball. Does not get sped up. Weaves his way to the rim. Just a natural effortless look to his game.     Lasalle did it like schools did it years ago you like a player you sign him and then got a really good one in Johnny. Very smooth. Excellent handle. Great court vision and awareness. Poised and in control. Made some tough contested baskets. Scores from all three levels. Really like his mid range pull up game.     Very impressive. Can grab rebound lead and finish the break. Excellent court vision and passing ability. Quick fluid motion. Showed step back threes side step threes all with same motion. Glides on the floor with tremendous speed. Evident in one sequence where he chased down the ball handler and came across to run him down and block his shot.     Unfortunately Aaron hurt his ankle in the early stages of the third quarter. He did not return, but in the half we saw him we saw what a talent he is. He makes hustle plays and tough rebounds. Explosive athletic player. Showed his ability to score inside or step out and shoot the three ball. A talented player we hope to see back right away.     Big body inside. As we stated up above sets really good screens. Uses his body well to gain position in the paint. Keeps possessions alive. Cleans up misses and scores or gets his team another shot. Showed a strong power finish from the block.
