Expert Analysis
Paul Hernandez | Prep Hoops Scout
Okoh is a physical and skilled lead guard that plays with pace and control of the game, likes to get down hill to use his strength to bully players at the basket, and can space the floor from beyond the arc. Okoh led the charge at the helm for Brentwood, who would win the top bracket at the event, going 3-1 over the four games played. Okoh has a strong handle on the ball, keeps it on a string to survey the floor, has the court vision to make precise reads to open teammates off the drive and kick pass, to the diver off the pick and roll action, as well as up the court to push the tempo in transition, and is a tough on-ball defender with active hands and quick instincts to deflect passes, jump passing lanes, or poke the ball out to turn defense to offense. Okoh has a great burst off the dribble, gets paint touch routinely, absorbs contact around the paint with moves to create space in tight quarters, using the spin-move, euro-step, and reverse lay-ups to evade rim protectors, and has shifty moves to create shots from the perimeter, using the crossover, hesitation, toss-cross, and jab-step to get space to pull the 3-ball off the dribble with accuracy.
