He has star written all over him. Hudson has great size and smooth athleticism. He finds buckets from all levels. When he decides to put his head down and get to the rim, there is nothing defenders can do to slow him down. With his length, Hudson is able to shoot over contests from the perimeter. Defensively, Cadien has the physical tools to become a game-wrecking presence with his ability to get deflections at the top of the zone. Power 5 programs are jumping all in on Hudson.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3073281"],"_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-69dd18ef648b9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Townsend's activity level on both ends of the floor separates him from most. He attacks rebounds and is a versatile defender who can guard multiple spots on the floor. I like how well Townsend attacks on offense with a diverse attack. He is willing to do the dirty work for offensive rebounds but also has the skill to make plays off the bounce on the wing and can also shoot the three. Makari stuffs the stat sheet nightly. Townsend should become a popular name with D-I programs if he isn't already.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2969725"],"_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-69dd18ef64901"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Big man has established himself as one of the most intriguing long term 2029 posts in Georgia. Terrific frame and physicality. During Darlington's title run, he still looked like a freshman at times, but as soon as he got acclimated to the speed of the game he was effective, coming away with numerous huge plays on both ends of the floor down the stretch. Quality rim protector. Very patient in the pivot, showing a variety of moves.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2850891"],"_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-69dd18ef64945"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Heady point guard is mature beyond his years. Made a major impact as a freshman with his ability to dictate the flow of games. Has a high release on his jump shot near his ear. Streaky shooter has shown a propensity for getting hot when he calls his own number. Surveys the floor out of pick-and-rolls. Quick handed defender. Has been playing against older players for much of his career and it shows.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
