Expert Analysis
Miles Masercola | Prep Hoops Scout
Whitney showed he is ready for his heightened role and was probably the best player on the floor in Gibbons win over Cape Fear Academy on Friday Night. After a slow start for the team, Whitney used his paint touch ability to create quality looks for himself and others, leading to a complete effort and a win for Gibbons. This allowed the defense to get set where Whitney was a consistent presence in passing lanes and guarding the point of attack. Whitney can make shots off the catch or bounce, but is at his best getting downhill making plays. A true playmaking guard with high IQ and some flare, expect a big year from Whitney.

Whitney is a prospect to get to know out of Cardinal Gibbons; he’s got a knack for making things happen by staying in constant motion and around the basketball at all times; he’s shown he can knock down shots on the perimeter, clean up on the glass and make plays for others with consistency on the hardwood; he’s a prospect for DII/DIII programs in the region to get on their radar

Ultimate competitor who plays the game with a ton of tenacity especially when it comes to making plays; can knock down shots on his own or go find a rebound and find a teammate cutting to the rim for an easy bucket; can really get it going on the perimeter, shoots with confidence
