Alderman is an extremely fun player to watch. He has tremendous handles and plays the game fast, yet under control. The 5’7″ shifty PG knows the game very well and does a great job creating for his teammates. He has excellent court vision, but is also capable of scoring in bunches. He has a solid mid-range game, and has a knack for creating his own shot. Even though he is a smaller guard he does a great job attacking the basket and finishing with both hands. Defensively, he is very active and will guard you for the entire 94 ft. Alderman is promising prospect to follow not only this year but for the remainder of his high school career.

The 5-7 freshman point guard has a good combination skillset of speed and athleticism where he can get to the front of the rim without hesitation. Alderman can score in a variety of ways whether it’s off the bounce and has a smooth jumper from the mid-range. He also has some nifty moves on the dribble where he doesn’t force many tough shots as his IQ continues to rise. Alderman has a solid chance to be the top ranked point guard for his class before all is said and done.

The 5-6 freshman guard has a smooth handle and uses his quickness to get by defenders finishing at the front of the rim. He is also unafraid when it comes to the physicality as he can score off a dime while playing with a ton of confidence this past summer. On the defensive side, Alderman’s strength and speed allow him to stay in front of opposing guards where they have a hard time getting a good shot off him. Expect Alderman to be very active in the passing lanes as well where he plays with a ton of hustle and energy. He has an advanced game for a young age where he is only going to continue to grow and improve his game.
