He is a three level scorer who uses patience when getting down-hill and finding his spots on the court. His smooth lefty jumper is elite from the mid-range and deep levels, as he doesn't need much space to get his shot off. His patience pays off as he can keep defenders on his hip when attacking to finish or find an open teammate. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2624933"],"_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-6a5c3ceb4bc54"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cooper's size and strength make him standout instantly on the court and makes him a difference maker for his team. He sets great screens and stays strong in the paint, easily getting entry passes after getting open when sealing opposing players. Larson is also a high level defender, protecting the paint with ease and having great anticipation on the defensive end. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2445284"],"_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-6a5c3ceb4bc8e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jordan is a high energy guard who can really facilitate the offense to a high level. He knows how to pick apart opposing players with his dribble, blowing by players to get paint touches. He keeps his eyes up always, displaying elite court vision when seeing open teammates in the half court and transition game. His pace is excellent and he forces opposing guards to play at his speed. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2739562"],"_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-6a5c3ceb4bcc5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gunnar is one of the best shooters in the state and doesn't need much space to get his shot off. He moved off-ball extremely well, finding the weak spots in the defense where he can exploit and knock down some threes. He plays great in the transition game, out running opposing players with ease and seemingly never running out of energy out there. He's a big part of the Lyncs team and they will be a favorite to win the 1A state title next year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
