His agility and ball-handling stand out, while his off-ball positioning also adds to his effectiveness.

Cal Jr. is the only freshman on the list, and it's easy to see why. He's already a top-tier ball handler with a high basketball IQ. A true point guard, he has a knack for reading the game, anticipating plays, and creating angles to keep defenses off balance. He can score efficiently at all three levels and does a great job of picking his spots, showcasing both a strong shot IQ and unselfish playmaking. What stands out the most is his upside—his instincts and ability are already impressive, and once he adds more size, he's going to be even tougher to handle.

Evaluations are normally subscriber-only but when an athlete subscribes, theirs becomes free for all readers. Subscribing doesn't change who the Scout covers, it changes who gets to see it.
