Expert Analysis
Jack Pfeiffer | Prep Hoops Scout
Elijah turned in an excellent weekend with Minnesota Heat , showing off his full skillset. I really like his long-term potential as a wing prospect, already standing at 6’7” and possessing a lot of skill on the perimeter. He is a confident shooter from beyond the arc, looking very comfortable knocking down open threes off the catch. Christenson was able to score inside in a variety of ways, being able to go to work with his back to the basket and attack the rim off the dribble.

Christenson was the ultimate “utility big” for the Heat. His ability to stretch the floor forced opposing rim protectors out of the paint. His magnetism when gaining an advantage on drives opened the paint for teammates. Despite being the largest body on the floor, he surprised with his decent foot speed. Defensively he effectively jumped trapped on ball handlers. Between his outlet passing and his ability to run the lanes, he kept the Heat playing at a blistering pace.

At 6’5 Christenson had no problem dominating in the paint for the Northstar Titans on Sunday. With a great ability to box out and grab boards underneath. Christenson allows capitalized on second chance opportunities, which mattered in a contest that the Titans took by one point. The big also showed some versatility, knocking down multiple three pointers with a clean jump shot.

– Christenson is a six-foot-five-inch 2029 wing from Rogers and
Northstar Titans
Strand. Christenson is largely a perimeter player playing with the Titans even with his size. Christenson has a good handle for his size and length and for a player who’s not a primary ball handler has good passing ability. Christenson is agile and mobile, and still is largely developing his technical skills.
