Freed himself up for easy finishes. Solid framework  on the low block. Forcing opponents to pass up shots. Really liked what I saw from him last year at Romeoville. Seems to be building off of that. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1766437"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66763d1ea9129"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">First look with him at Rich Township. Played like a man amongst boys vs Addison Trail. Wins almost every rebound in his area. Created tons of second-chance opportunities while drawing plenty of and-ones in the process. More than just a post-presence. Often guarded the lead ball-handler on defense. Also had a tough layup attacking from the wing. It seems like this are working out for him at Rich. Should make them a contender in the south suburbs this winter. Scored 20 points</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1372556"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66763d1ea916c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The brightest spot for Addison Trail. After a slow start, he never lost confidence and led a ferocious scoring run vs Rich Township to bring Addison Trail back in it. Excellent speed with the ball and made several smooth finishes in transition. Also hit a three from the top of the key and a corner 3 shortly after, which cut the deficit to 2 at the time. He isn't the most promising prospect out there. But the energy he provides will definitely help a small college find tons of success. Finished with 29 points in this game. Scored 32 before that vs Glenbard North.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1845352"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66763d1ea91ab"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The 2026 PG stole the show in the 2nd half vs Addison Trail. Hit a fadeaway three from the corner before a ferocious slam dunk driving the lane. Did everything he could to make sure Addison Trail didn't force another comeback. Added another 3 from the top of the key to make it a 20-point game. Finishing with 14 points in this one. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1545122"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66763d1ea91ea"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">His skillset has really evolved since his freshman year. Was always active in this contest. Scored from all three levels in the opening half and picked up a block. Stayed aggressive and converted from the line in the 2nd half while finding open lanes to pick up a few more points. Also had a dunk in the final few minutes. Lindsey is a player you can rely on.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1766461"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66763d1ea9227"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">2025 PG had a really good finish to the half vs MV which included a 3-pointer at the buzzer. Shot the ball and converted at a high clip. Footwork looks good, too. But my favorite play from him came on defense when he had a chase-down block in transition midway through the opening half. Kept that momentum going and led the Vikings on another big run in the second half. Ended the game with 13 points.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
