The 2032 wing generated offense from all three levels, giving him multiple ways to attack depending on what the defense presented. McKinnie also provided considerable value on the defensive end, where he competed at a high level and consistently made things difficult for his matchup. With his ability to impact both sides of the ball, there is plenty of upside to track as his game develops.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3762018"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":3762178,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a9f13bb693af"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jayceon Moss provided plenty of offensive firepower at the BallIsWife Camp, with his perimeter shooting serving as a major weapon. He was a sniper from beyond the arc while also proving capable of scoring at all three levels when defenders ran him off the line. Moss handled contact well when attacking the basket, maintaining his balance and finishing through physicality. He rounded out his play with purposeful defensive effort, competing on that end and bringing value beyond his scoring ability.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3762020"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":3762176,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a9f13bb6943a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Naashon Nesmith gave defenders problems with his shiftiness and ability to consistently work his way into the paint at the BallIsWife Camp. His handle allowed him to change directions, navigate through traffic and create driving lanes off the dribble. Nesmith was a productive scorer once he found a rhythm and had the offensive tools to put points together in a hurry. His combination of ball-handling, quickness and scoring ability made him a difficult guard to contain.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3762030"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":3762181,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a9f13bb69522"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Maddox Perry showcased a well-rounded point guard skill set at the BallIsWife Camp. He played with good control off the dribble, using his handle to create separation from defenders and work himself into advantageous spots on the floor. Perry displayed several qualities that project well at the position, particularly his comfort operating with the basketball and ability to create off the bounce. The foundation is there for him to develop into a very good lead guard as he continues to progress.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3762035"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":3762183,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a9f13bb69565"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">De'Rius Thompson displayed high-level lead guard qualities at the BallIsWife Camp and consistently made the players around him better. His quick handle and explosive first step allowed him to get an advantage off the dribble, while a sharp hesitation gave him another way to keep defenders off balance. Thompson already possesses an advanced collection of tools for a young point guard, especially with his ability to create and initiate offense. With plenty of physical and skill development still ahead, he has the makings of an elite lead guard in the Class of 2032.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stay tuned for more from Coast 2 Coast Preps!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
