Prep School Priorities Vol. 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>These are a few high schools seniors across the northeast who would be great pickups for prep schools as postgrads. Figured this might be a cool special to do to spotlight all the talented unsigned high school seniors who have limited to no recruitment. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1550115"],"_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-69b452df434b5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">An all-around forward with an expanded set of tools. He runs the floor effectively in transition and often gets rewarded with scoring opportunities. Defensively, he does a good job getting into passing lanes and can generate turnovers. While he may not be elite in one particular area, he impacts the game in a variety of ways. Shows good timing when contesting and altering shots around the rim.<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1989267"],"_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-69b452df4351c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He is an active-bodied forward who plays extremely hard. He's a threat to jump passing lanes and turn defense into offense. Offensively, he shows nice touch around the basket, and defensively he has the ability to switch and guard multiple positions. He consistently finds ways to make an impact on the game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2553697"],"_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-69b452df43563"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Plays well out of ball screens and does a good job finding others for scoring opportunities. Fills the lane in transition and shows good touch around the basket. Looks natural with the ball in his hands, displaying a solid handle and the ability to elude congestion. Creates separation for himself off the bounce and has a good grasp of the game, directing traffic within the flow of the offense. Sneaky athletic, he also shows the ability to finish and play effectively around the rim.<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1963388"],"_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-69b8bd91c6754"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A high-upside forward who is starting to scratch the surface at the right time. He shows flashes of being able to score off the bounce, particularly with his in-between game. I like how he uses his length to impact the game on the defensive end. Barrett is a switchable defender with the ability to guard multiple positions.<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2459215"],"_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-69b97e7728989"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Comfortable playing with his back to the basket, he shows no issues utilizing his post moves around the block. He can be a focal point of the offense with the ability to have the game run through him. Displays soft hands, allowing him to consistently secure passes, and can play above the rim out of the dunker spot. I like the versatility he brings to the game on both ends of the floor.<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
