Expert Analysis
Andrew Herman | Prep Hoops Scout
Galasso is a player that likes to cause havoc on the defensive end with his hustle and nose for the ball seemingly always being at the right place and time. He does an excellent job of trapping players in the corner to force some sort of turnover from the other team. He can pick any perimeter player up full-court throughout an entire game and never leave their side. There isn’t a ball that Galasso won’t go after when it comes to diving out of bounds to give his team a chance for more offensive possessions.

Galasso is a speedy point guard that has a motor always running on both sides of the ball. Particularly on the perimeter on the defensive end is where he can do a lot of damage. Galasso has great timing when looking to steal the ball from other players. He knows exactly when to time his jump to pick off a pass in the air. Another thing that makes Galasso great is diving after loose balls and never giving up on a play.

Galasso has a quick high release point on his jump shot. He has unlimited range and must be guarded the second he touches the ball. Galasso is always moving either with or without the ball. He can use his shifty handles to create good separation for open shots. You also won’t see Galasso taking any out-of-character shots either. Galasso will look to take advantage of mismatches between him and his teammates.

Galasso has unlimited range and should be guarded the second he has the ball because there isn’t a shot that he won’t attempt. His high-arcing shot looks so smooth when he releases it. Once Galasso catches the ball and sets his feet it is automatically a bucket from long distance. He needs very little room to get his shot off as pressure defense does almost nothing to alter his shot making him a sniper from long range.

Galasso has a quick release at the point guard position which allows him to get many contested three-point shots when given the opportunity. He has an excellent pull-up midrange game as well giving him complete control on the offensive end. His underrated handles which can surprise defenses are used for Galasso to get anything he wants once he gets in the midrange/ painted area. Galasso’s defensive ability is another strong suit of his to read any passing lane or pickpocket ball handlers.
