A polished Senior guard looking to lead the Monarchs this season in the always competitie WCAL. Standing 6'4 he has court speed positions himself to help defend, works to stay in front, and help rebound. There's some efficiency in his mid-range jumper, always a threat to knock down 3's, he's driving and taking the hit to finish at the rim. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2484287"],"_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-6ace4fc19bede"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A strong guard who knows how to use his strength, and body. He's an excellent ball handler, passer. He uses hard dribble drives for contact layups, plants off two feet, kick it out, or hits the paint jumper. He's a good on ball defender, can be disruptive, has leverage, moves his feet, can get a steal. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3773655"],"_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-6ace59c1e64bf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">As it stands right now Martinelli is making the case for one of the better 3-points shooters in the NorCal Class of 2029 during the Fall Basketball Season. He's still growing and strengthening his body, and developing other parts of his game, nevertheless he's taking and making 3's at a good percentage within the flow for a team that plays at a fast pace. He's shot ready for catch corner 3's, but can hit from other spots. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2952320"],"_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-6ace622778663"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He's adjusting to Varsity level basketball. He's getting good minutes during Fall Ball. He has improving guard skills, footspeed. He seems a better fit working off ball for now, moving without the ball, and looking to hit jumpers. He has good form and range, can knock down 3's, and pull up for mid-range jumpers. He needs more seasoning, good upside. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2219461"],"_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-6ace6227786a3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A strong body with improving skills. He has some defensive qualities, size, and strength to defend in the post area mixing it up inside going for rebounds, and paint points. With extended arms, lateral movement it helps him defending away from the basket. He hustles back on defense, gets in good help position with vision. He's has improving handles, and balance to aggressively attack the basket at times.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
