3-Pack: 2021 Point Guards To Watch
Landon Bundy
<p>The change in the recruiting cycle is going to be a big change for everyone. Right as we thought we were going to be getting out on the road, we get shut down. So, in order to spend as much effort as we can in getting players seen, we are going to do what we call, 3-Packs. </p>
<p>With these, we want to highlight 3 players who are similar in class and position. Get some time to dive into some quick thoughts, stat breakdowns, and film. Today, we are looking at 2021 Point Guards in <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="874218" first="Noah" last="Carter"], [player_tooltip player_id="874171" first="Kaden" last="McCollough"], and [player_tooltip player_id="647205" first="Naylon" last="Thompson"].</strong></p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="874218" first="Noah" last="Carter"] – 5’9 PG 2021 – Bishop Chatard (IN)</strong><br />
<strong>Stats</strong>: 10.5 ppg, 2.4 rpg, 2.5 apg, 37% 3pt<br />
<strong>Thoughts</strong>: <span data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"Noah is a really small but skilled point guard. He’s decent off the bounce as a shooter and loves to make plays in the mid-range. Still learning to get his jumper off as a smaller player but when he does, he is pretty good with it. Doesn’t shoot it with too much of a push shot and the form should stick. Had a really good jumper from 10’ fading to his left. If he can get more size and add some strength, his skill and shooting should play up. He’s willing to play tough and get in there, just doesn’t yet have the body to do it all yet."}" data-sheets-userformat="{"2":33569707,"3":{"1":0},"4":[null,2,16777215],"6":{"1":[{"1":2,"2":0,"5":[null,2,14277081]},{"1":0,"2":0,"3":1},{"1":1,"2":0,"4":1}]},"8":{"1":[{"1":2,"2":0,"5":[null,2,12040119]},{"1":0,"2":0,"3":1},{"1":1,"2":0,"4":1}]},"10":1,"11":3,"12":0,"14":[null,2,0],"15":"Montserrat","16":6,"28":1}">Noah is a really small but skilled point guard.

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="874171" first="Kaden" last="McCollough"] – 5’11 PG 2021 – Shenandoah (IN)</strong><br />
<strong>Stats</strong>: 12.7 ppg, 3.2 rpg, 3.5 apg, 2.2 spg, 50% 3pt<br />
<strong>Thoughts</strong>: <span data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"Kaden is a small lead guard who hit a ton of big shots. Small guard and has a little bit of a push jumper right now, but he’s locked in and looks good with it. Should stay on the ball and creates well on the perimeter at times. Wanted to see a little more off the bounce as he tends to play more as a perimeter scorer. Might not grow a ton more but should add some strength."}" data-sheets-userformat="{"2":33569707,"3":{"1":0},"4":[null,2,16777215],"6":{"1":[{"1":2,"2":0,"5":[null,2,14277081]},{"1":0,"2":0,"3":1},{"1":1,"2":0,"4":1}]},"8":{"1":[{"1":2,"2":0,"5":[null,2,12040119]},{"1":0,"2":0,"3":1},{"1":1,"2":0,"4":1}]},"10":1,"11":3,"12":0,"14":[null,2,0],"15":"Montserrat","16":6,"28":1}">Kaden is a small lead guard who hit a ton of big shots.

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="647205" first="Naylon" last="Thompson"] – 6’5 </strong><strong>PG 2021 – Fort Wayne Bishop Luers (IN)</strong><br />
<strong>Stats</strong>: 16.0 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 2.4 apg, 2.5 spg<br />
<strong>Thoughts</strong>: <span data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"Naylon is a tall guard who showed a lot more skill and scoring ability than before. He was really good with the ball in his hands, creating jumpers and in the lane a ton. Used ball screens, his a catch-and-shoot three, a pull-up three, was the most diverse scorer we saw at this age level all weekend. Also, he proved he can stay on the point as well. Improving rapidly right now."}" data-sheets-userformat="{"2":33569707,"3":{"1":0},"4":[null,2,16777215],"6":{"1":[{"1":2,"2":0,"5":[null,2,14277081]},{"1":0,"2":0,"3":1},{"1":1,"2":0,"4":1}]},"8":{"1":[{"1":2,"2":0,"5":[null,2,12040119]},{"1":0,"2":0,"3":1},{"1":1,"2":0,"4":1}]},"10":1,"11":3,"12":0,"14":[null,2,0],"15":"Montserrat","16":6,"28":1}">Naylon is a tall guard who showed a lot more skill and scoring ability than before.

He used ball screens, his a catch-and-shoot three, a pull-up three, very well, and he was the most diverse scorer we saw at this age level all weekend. Also, he proved he can stay on the point as well. He is improving rapidly right now, and he has great potential in the coming season.</span></p>
