Standout Catch-and-Shoot Prospects

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the best ways to open up a defense for easy looks is to expand it. Consistently hitting from behind the arc keeps defenders on their toes at all times. Here are a few guys excelling at doing that early in the new season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3726915"],"_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-6ae64f2331385"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Strait has been an absolute terror lately for Ridgefield Christian this week. 27 points vs. Marmaduke, 34 Points vs. Hillcrest, and 33 points vs. BIC. He's showing an ability to get to his favored spots in the mid-range, but where Strait is most dangerous is from three. Making over 6 threes a game this week, Sam is elite when given catch-and-shoot opportunities. So far in this young season, you can see his confidence keep growing. This has expanded the guard's shot selection, showing a new ability to shoot off the dribble that could take his game to the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3832218"],"_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-6ae66085c44bd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Playing alongside multiple strong drivers who can penetrate and dish, Jones benefits most. Though a combo guard, Jones is best without the ball. Lurking on the perimeter, he fits perfectly into the Bay offense. Because of teammates' drives, Jones gets plenty of open opportunities from three. He's got a wide base, keeps the elbow straight, and is always ready to knock down the trifecta for Bay.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3832220"],"_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-6ae66085c44ee"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">At 6''4 Jase is the center for Jasper and uses his size well on the boards and in the post. The most dangerous part of his game, however, is the jumper. The Pirates get him open regularly through set plays. Running baseline or to the top of the arc through screens, Willis can knock down the three at a promising clip. As a Junior, Willis is stepping up into an important role for Jasper as they look to continue being at the front of their conference.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3832226"],"_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-6ae66085c4510"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Middleton is continuing to grow as a go-to shooter from behind the arc. Lead Hill's ability to get him open through sets has led to an uptick in his attempts. One of my favorite plays is Tucker getting a screen as soon as he passes the ball in baseline to get an open shot in the corner. Tucker is more than just a catch-and-shoot guy; however, honing this ability makes the rest of his offensive game easier.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2395375"],"_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-6ae66085c452f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cayleb has proven throughout his high school career that he is far more than just a catch-and-shoot player. As his younger brother Bentley continues to develop, his usage rate has taken a major leap. This has allowed Cayleb to show more versatility in his game, playing off the ball. The senior guard has a knack for finding open spots, making it easy for teammates to kick out to him when driving. The three-level scorer is proving he can have the same impact with the ball and off it.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
