The 6-foot guard often stands out as a defender due to his quick choppy feet, lateral quickness, instincts, anticipation, and knack for pushing guards into their weaknesses, but most of all, it's his confidence and limitless motor that propels him. Good on-ball skills, an extremely pesky and tireless pickpocket defender, he loves to irritate opposing guards with his active hands and cat-like reflexes. Gustin can also be a reliable helpside defender at times, he has a fast recovery and often comes up with a block or deflection. Gustin even shows the ability to switch onto taller and stronger players and still be effective.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"preview","anchor":"acf-block-65f4100a18b43"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_6328b58739d50","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Dylan Weathered","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Lake Dallas","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Pure jumpshooter with a picture perfect shooting stroke from top to bottom.

From long range, Weathered has the type of scoring that kills momentum, demoralzies his opponent, and can keep his team in any game.
