Fall Basketball Standouts and Prospects

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's good to say we have a Fall Basketball Season in NorCal. High School teams adopted the AAU Club model in September and October to prepare for the upcoming season. PH NorCal was at College of San Mateo for a Fall Ball event evaluating prospects with their teams.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2215141"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6abfce6fc2621"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The experienced guard from the City of San Francisco. He's stronger, settled, playing with confidence. He's putting his point guard skills on display. Ball handling, court vision, decision making. Strong on the drive, hitting the mid-range off the dribble, taking and making open 3's in the flow. His speed, intensity and toughness on the defensive side is underrated.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2894463"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6abfce6fc265c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The transfer from The King's Academy is primed to compete for the starting point guard position at Archbishop Mitty. He had a strong display of guard skills recently. He plays at a good pace, not rushed, takes care of the ball. He has court vision and looks to involve others. He deals with contact driving into the paint, hits the short jumpers, can drop a 3 in rhythm. Made his free throws late. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2702684"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6abfce6fc2680"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He's polished up his point guard skills, more settled as a facilitator, handles ball pressure, sees the court, uses his body for hard drives, and control to maneuver his way into scoring position from the top and along the perimeter. He hits short jumpers, has the size and footwork to generate paint points. He'll get a good amount of rebounds with his paint activity. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3529937"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6abfce6fc26a1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He's set for a breakout season, after a strong Spring and Summer against quality competition. Parrot has polished up his guards. With improved ball handling along perimeter, he used body, and hard dribbles to get to the basket. He's improved his range, shooting open 3's when it's there. He's still quite effective as an undersized post area player. His points and rebounding numbers should tick up this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3101183"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6abfce6fc26c0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He's a fast point guard, has quality handles, and court vision, moves the ball. He'll put pressure on defenses pushing the pace in transition. He's got a burst, can use a couple moves in and outs to get past defenders. He's an improving point guard in this class still sharpening his overall skills. He plays with confidence, gives effort on the defensive side of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2359721"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6abfce6fc26de"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He looks stronger, conditioned with improved movement in the post. His post offense is improved, he's getting more paint touches. He used one or two dribbles from the mid and low post, showed improved footwork, and balance to get paint points keeping the ball high. We saw above the rim action with lob dunks, tap ins, and put backs. The new muscle helps defending in the post, changing shots, might block a few. He'll be in the double, double club. Rebounds and points.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
