Expert Analysis
Aaron Proia | Prep Hoops Scout
-Pitts will likely continue to ascend our rankings as a combo guard prospect with good positional size and a diverse skillset. The trademark skill is for sure the shooting, as Pitts is a knockdown movement shooter that gets off his shot quickly without rushing his form. But he also looks to have improved his ability to knock down shots off the bounce, hitting sidestep and stepback 3s with relative ease from both the wings and the corner. Love that–despite the shooting touch and scoring ability– Pitts remains a willing passer in transition that threw 1-handed dimes off a live dribble to the opposite block while operating in high ball screens in the middle of the floor. Pitts hails from a long line of hoopers in his family that stand 6’5+, if he reaches that height–we’re talking about a national level CG prospect.
