Chavis displayed his ability to put an opponent away as he hit back-to-back 3-pointers to seal the victory over Minnesota Preparatory Academy in the fourth quarter. Chavis contributed in other ways as well as he secured seven rebounds, assisted on four baskets, and swiped and stripped away the ball from opponents four times.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1284106"],"_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_0_evaluation":"The former Minneapolis South six-foot-eight-inch [player_tooltip player_id='1284106' first='Chiang' last='Ring'] seems to be the ever growing prospect.

The growth of his game however is his ball handling and ability to play out on the perimeter. With a handle that is emerging more and more of the passing days this skill is unlocking Ring's ability to score in a number of ways making him more than just a screen and roll threat.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"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":"Jalyn Patterson","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77246","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Minnesota Preparatory Academy","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"Howard Pulley Hoops","_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":"What Jalyn Patterson lacks in size, he makes up with speed, quickness, and basketball awareness.

Mason utilized his soft hands and touch to score himself 12 points over the course of the game versus Park Center. Mason has a solid base, controls himself well inside offensively and defensively. When twisting and turning in the paint he did a good job keeping the ball up above the smaller defenders to be able to make short lay-ups. Defensively he managed two locks, one he didn't fall for a ball fake, and swatted away an attempt by an opponent.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/FreshCoastHoops/status/1588980284648673280?t=xHJPkKjZrwMbQkRDY4Nhkwu0026s=19","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/FreshCoastHoops/status/1588980284648673280?t=xHJPkKjZrwMbQkRDY4Nhkwu0026s=19 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["962199"],"_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_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='962199' first='CJ' last='O'Hara'] is a powerful wing who will make opponents work to score while displaying the ability to guard all positions.
