After spending last season on Auburn's bench, Perry has stepped into a starting role for the 16-2 Panthers. He's shot the rock from behind the arc at a high clip and has shown the ability to exploit certain matchups and execute with some added poise while attacking the paint.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2835727"],"_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-697955e7adcd1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Miller has some length at 6-foot-5 that has helped Liberty in spots on the glass and provided them some extra length defensively. He's a decently athletic wing and has displayed a pretty solid stroke from different levels, extending out past the 3-point line. He's getting solid minutes this winter and will be a player to watch next year who could start to really blossom.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2954844"],"_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-697955e7add5d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Depell has played with some nice confidence with the rock this winter, showcasing an ability to do a little bit of it all offensively to supplant some of their more established scorers. He's been a reliable figure with the ball, playing strong, making good decisions, and showing the guts to come up in big spots. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2845151"],"_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-697955e7adde9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Smith is a pretty well built forward/wing who has demonstrated the footwork and ball skills to score out of different spots on the floor. He has the touch to finish in various ways in close, and he has also been consistent enough from behind the arc to force defenses to follow him all around the court. He handles the ball well enough to utilize his strength and get to his spots and has been a pretty impactful player for Medical Lake this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
