A strong, physical big, he consistently makes his impact felt on both ends of the floor. Defensively, White anchors the paint well, deterring guards and post players alike from attacking the rim. On the offensive end, he thrives on the glass, creating second-chance opportunities with his activity and converting putbacks at a high rate. As he enters high school, White projects as a player who can make an immediate impact. His effort and physicality give him the tools to be a difference-maker on the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2873922"],"_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-69f041ffd74c6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I really liked what I saw from [player_tooltip player_id='2873922' first='Jones' last='Broxey'] this weekend playing for [program_tooltip program_id='2075431' first='D1' last='Minnesota'] (Black). He showcased his ability to score at all three levels—knocking down shots from beyond the arc, operating effectively in the mid-range, and getting to the rim with ease for finishes. Defensively, Broxey has a strong instinct for jumping passing lanes, generating multiple steals and turning them into transition opportunities. As a guard with good size, he has the potential to develop into a solid contributor for St. Louis Park in the future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3254815"],"_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-69f041ffd751a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='3254815' first='Agape' last='Gilo'] showed strong flashes this weekend at the Twin Cities Takedown while playing for a deep [program_tooltip program_id='2075702' first='MN' last='Lightning'] squad. He effectively uses his height and wingspan to impact the game defensively, making it difficult for opponents to drive past him or get clean shots off over him. On the offensive end, Gilo is equally challenging to contain, using his long strides to excel in transition and finish efficiently at the rim. With his physical tools and developing skill set, [player_tooltip player_id='3254815' first='Agape' last='Gilo'] is a name to watch as he enters a strong high school basketball program at Austin High School.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2382195"],"_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-69f041ffd757e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2382195' first='Max' last='Miller'] flashed his potential this weekend at the Twin Cities Takedown. A big combo guard, he stands out for his offensive efficiency, particularly in the mid-range. Miller uses a solid handle to create space and consistently get to pull-up jumpers off the dribble. His size further enhances his scoring ability, allowing him to get good looks at the rim, shoot comfortably over smaller defenders, and finish drives to the basket. With his physical tools and overall feel for the game, Miller has the intangibles to develop into a notable prospect on the high school scene.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
