McGowan converted on five three pointers in his game high 23 points in a lop-sided victory on Tuesday. He also showed that he can put the ball on the deck. McGowan is an assertive passer who has a nice pulse on the game. I wish he was more active on the glass.&nbsp;<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3300530"],"_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-695bc6ffccbcb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cases shows that he can move the ball during the flow of the offense. He connects with fellow teammates on scoring chances of their own. Casses is known for his ability to put the ball in the bucket. He finds ways to get to the foul line and has no issue seeking out contact. I would like to see him add more finesse to his game instead of just trying to ram rod everyone. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2453477"],"_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-695bd328f3b11"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cristofoletti impresses as a shot-maker and shoots an extremely clean ball when he is playing off the ball. If his feet are set there is a high chance he is converting. I would like to see him get quicker I think he plays too much in slow motion. He shows some flashes as a creator and can get others involved. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2632695"],"_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-695bd328f3bba"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Portee is a utility guard who impresses with his versatility. He can play on or off the basketball and has a nose for finding ways to stay relevant in the game. I like how he is able to anticipate the game on the fly and always seems to find ways to collect steals on defense. I want to see him become more of a consistent threat from deep. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2874741"],"_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-695bd328f3c61"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Archer is a do it all wing who stuffs the stat sheet with his versatility. He is effective running the floor in transition and gets rewarded with scoring opportunities. He finds ways to get into the paint on the attack and can convert easy chances inside. Archer shows flashes from behind the arc if he became more consistent I could see an uptick in his stock as a prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
