The young guard averaged 18.3 points through 4 games in South Carolina. Taylor has been unstoppable with the rock in his hands. Hes playing the game at a great pace right now and getting more comfortable locating his favorite spots on the floor. Maddox recently picked up his first offer from Hardin-Simmons University. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2026077"],"_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-682cbbc7c4a06"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Martinez has put on a clinic throughout the early part of the spring. This past weekend in Kansas City he showcased to many college coaches that he will be capable of playing at the next level. Martinez dished out dime after dime to his teammates. He did a great job of putting pressure on the defense by getting to the elbows and forcing the defense to make quick decisions. Martinez used his smooth mid range pull up at a high level to start drawing the respect of the bigs in the paint once he beat his defender. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2085694"],"_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-682cbbc7c4a4d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bramlett has proven to be one of the top shooters on the Adidas Circuit. He knocked down 14 threes in 4 games in Lawrence Kansas. Drew is proving why he has been regarded as one of the top point guards in the state of New Mexico. His playmaking abilities have also been on display throughout the early portion of the grassroots season. He has excelled off of the pick and roll with [player_tooltip player_id='2402829' first='Jerry' last='Moody'] while on the circuit this year. Drew is making a strong case for his state ranking to improve as we gear up for the 2nd half of the AAU season </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2215899"],"_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-682cbbc7c4a8d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Padron has been a dawg on both sides of the floor! Defensively, he is never afraid to pick up the opposing guards 94 feet. He's able to make ball handlers uncomfortable as they bring the rock down the floor which makes it extremely difficult to set up an offense when matching up against Pedro. Offensively he does a great job of pushing the pace down the floor to allow his team to play in transition. He keeps his eyes up as he attacks and uses his amazing court vision to find his open teammates</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2822061"],"_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-682cbbc7c4acc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fuller has put his elite athleticism on display throughout the grassroots season. He is able to play above the rim and is capable of a big time play at any moment! His perimeter defense has improved throughout the summer as he utilizes his strong frame and quick feet to stay in front of the talented guards that he has faced up against. Fuller explosiveness has allowed him to get up and reject plenty of shot attempts at the rim as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
