Torres was one of those players I didn’t know much about until Rocky Mountain Mayhem, and that was the only time we got to see him. Well, we want to see more. From what we saw then, he’s a player who can make his mark on the defensive end of the floor, he’s willing to do the small things, and he made the right play more often than not. Now it’s about showing that it wasn’t just a one-off but the beginning of a career worth following. 

Torres looks poised to become a name more people know as he continues developing and gaining exposure. The tall guard projects as a valuable two way piece because of the way he impacts games with intelligence, versatility and consistent effort. He already shows a strong feel for reading defenses, making smart decisions and taking what the game gives him offensively rather than forcing difficult plays. His ability to knock down perimeter shots and create advantages with his awareness should continue opening up his offensive game moving forward. Defensively he has the tools to become a reliable matchup guard thanks to his footwork, competitiveness and activity on the ball. As his confidence and overall skill set continue growing, Torres has the potential to see his stock rise significantly

Torres is a player who I did not know about heading into the event, who played with a strong understanding of the game, making consistent winning plays without forcing too many negative plays. He was full of highlights in the games that I watched him in, and he has a ton of skills that lead to wins. He’s a tall guard who defends with purpose, moves his feet, and competes on the ball. Offensively, he reads the floor well and positions himself to impact possessions with just reading what the defense is giving him. He can shoot it from deep. Torres’ awareness, defensive fundamentals, and ability to adapt to what’s needed make him a valuable, high-IQ piece who should be on more radars.

Torres found his rhythm in the second game of day two, starting with strong finishes inside before heating up from beyond the arc. Once he saw a few shots fall, his confidence grew, and he became a consistent threat from three. Torres also embraced contact, getting to the free throw line and adding another dimension to his scoring by creating contact in the paint.
