<p>Peterson is a PHI favorite and one of the best players in southern Illinois. The broad shouldered senior wing is a high level scorer that creates space for his jumper, has a quick release, and is lethal off the catch. Can also operate facing up out of the mid-post area with his jumper or taking it to the hoop on a couple dribbles. Toughness around the hoop scoring and rebounding. The feathery jumper is his biggest calling card!</p>
