Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Among the more improved prospects in the region, Fernandez has gone from the obscurity of Rhode Island freshman-team ball to being a true force at the prep-school level within just a few months’ time. A hulking presence on the interior, Fernandez capped a strong weekend with an effective 18-point effort in a tight third-place win over Redemption Christian. He has soft hands and natural finishing touch over either shoulder, punishing single coverage with patient and efficient moves on the low block. The Dominican national showed glimpses of ball skills and shooting touch to develop over time, while looking more effective changing ends and protecting the rim after having cut close to 30 pounds from his frame. Being this effective already while still in the relatively early stages of development at his size, Fernandez appears to have a bright future with potential for the highest levels of college basketball if he continues on his current track.
