Good basketball instincts and can find others in different spots for scoring chances.&nbsp;He also shows some craftiness when he has the ball in his hands. Is in passing lanes to gather steals.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3482759"],"_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-6989fd3b95e4f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Breaks the game down well and can find others for scoring chances. Touches the paint at will when on the attack. Has good body control when going up to score. Has no issue changing gears. Nimble on feet and can sway around screens. He has no issue blowing by defenders.Does a nice job of getting it and going and playing up-tempo. Like how unselfish of a playmaker he is. Scores with either hand around the bucket.&nbsp;<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3348776"],"_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-698a39dacef64"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In good spots on the floor to gather rebounds and finds ways to collect 2nd chance efforts. He is a tad of a tweener which makes him versatile. Threat to knock down shots from deep when on the move. Can put the ball on the deck. Would like to see him use fakes more around the bucket instead of just going up.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2960045"],"_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-698c85cd57a71"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Developing post who is in the early stages of his development, mile long length can be seen frequently on the defensive end. Like his eye for the floor and can see things into existence from a far. Shows some flashes moving the ball as a passer. He finds ways to jump passing lanes. I like his footwork on the offensive end and has some fluidity and nimbleness. Needs to work on getting stronger and scoring in and around traffic. Best basketball is on the horizon. <br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3488910"],"_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-698c9d1646af2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fills the lane in transition. Scores off 2nd chance efforts and can score using post moves inside.  Has no issue going coast to coast on the attack. Is in good spots to collect rebounds. Like the way in which he breaks the game down and never seems to get sped up. Has extended range from three. He doesn't let the ball stick to hands and can move the rock. <br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
