At the next level, Max is more likely to play off the ball than on it but he is wired to score and makes some high level passes. Likely to play with the ball in his hands at ton for Oldham this season, the big guard has all the tools to be an impact player in college down the line.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview"} /-->

Long term, Jaylan will reach his potential when he gets a little stronger and is more able to finish through contact but he has shown himself to be a hard worker so expect those gains to come soon, if they haven't already.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview"} /-->

He's used to playing with a lot of talent but knows how to turn up his aggression as a scorer when he needs to. One of Kyran's best attributes is his willingness to talk on the defensive end and he will lock up opposing guards and make life hard on them.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview"} /-->

That should change as he's in line for a much bigger role at Bowling Green this season and will need to be more of a scorer than he's shown in the past. If there is a guard on this list to buy stock in this season, I'd look at Wardlow first.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview"} /-->

Whether in transition or in the halfcourt, Blake is always in attack mode. Reed plays off the ball a lot because his brother is more of a u0022true pointu0022 but Blake is capable of running a team when needed. Once he locks in on the defensive end, Reed should see scholarship offers coming his way.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview"} /-->
