Hancock's bread and butter is his ability to knockdown shots on the perimeter if his feet are set there is a high chance he is converting from deep. He shoots a clean ball and is very effective at hunting for his own shot. I like how he likes to get in the mix on the glass and finds ways to rebound the ball. As of now he is a straight two guard but think if he improved his ball skills he could potentially become a combo-guard which would make him more appealing to college programs. He is a prospect who would be a great fit at the postgrad level, division two level or the junior college level.

O'Brien is a budding wing with good size on the perimeter. He left his mark on the game from behind the arc and connected on four threes in a loss to Downingtown West (PA). He shoots a clean ball and if his feet are set good luck!! O'Brien was also able to find ways to rebound the basketball. Looking forward to tracking him over the next several years.
