At 6'9 he is stretch big that can defend multiple positions. He is out there switch on guards and at times he will start on one of the better guards because he can move well and impact the game with his defense. Beattie is shooting the ball well and he has even exploded on the offensive end hitting the 30+ mark a few times this season. His recruitment is wide open and while being a high academic kid he could walk on to a program and help in many ways.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6580b8caca580"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1877118"],"_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":"Small schools should be fighting for this kid right now! He has improved his game so much over the years. His motor has always been a high motor but his attacking the rim skills have improved and the ability to keep his dribble on attacks and in traffic have improved as well. His shooting is better and you do not have to tell this kid to attack the boards, it is in his DNA. Neibaur could be a solid small school steal.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6580b8caca5e5"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1384539"],"_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":"Malcom has made a nice transition from guard to forward and although he can stil play in the perimeter he has really filled into his body and he has been able to rebound better closer to the rim and he has been effective near the rim as well. With his guard skills as a foundation he is a player that could blossom at the next level. Might be a D2 or NJCAA type of a player but he does have next level ability for sure.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6580b8caca63a"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1551349"],"_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":"If you are looking to make a splash with a sleeper athlete that does a little bit of everything Cowan is a player you need to come see.

He could be a game changer that could fit into an up and down system or a slow pace system as well. He has elite positional size and that hybrid big ability makes him a player you can use in many ways. He can be out in the perimeter and play beyond the arc. He attacks the rim well and can finish and on defense he can come over and block shots. One of the better grab and go bigs that can weave his way in and out of traffic. Solid D1 skills for sure.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6580b8caca6e0"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1391456"],"_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":"Really good size and skill foundation for sure. Lead guard skills continue to get better and he could be a find at the NAIA or NWAC level. He can score and defend his position.
