Expert Analysis
Will Armishaw | Prep Hoops Scout
Paliling, a lead guard out of Champlain Valley Union High School, checks in at #213 overall and #40 among the point guards. Paliling, a lefty, does a nice job of playing at different speeds, operating as a lead guard that keeps opponents off balance with his pace. He’s capable of making plays out of ball screens, can step behind a screen to knock down a shot, and always keeps his eyes up the floor in transition. He scores with touch over size in the paint, makes the little plays the lead to winning games, and has the ability to defend at a high level with his lateral mobility.

Paliling is a heady point guard who never tries to do too much and is willing to make simple plays for his teammates. He has a shifty off the dribble game and is able to puncture the paint, and he sees the floor well despite his lack of size. He also does a good job running the floor as a PG and making decisions in transition. His height is going to limit his college recruitment, but he should be able to have a solid junior season at Champlain Valley Union High School this year and perhaps some more physical growth or major quickness improvements could change his college outlook.
