Expert Analysis
Colby Giacubeno | Prep Hoops Scout
Coard had a very quiet game in Severna Park’s win a couple of weeks back. The 6-foot-1 sophomore has put together a season that has put him on the map in the county and he got back to those ways on Saturday as he was the high scorer for the Falcons with 19 points. A lethal long range shooter with a quick release, Coard does a nice job of constantly moving when his team has the ball in a half court setting. Not only does it demand his individual defender’s attention throughout a game, his gravity opens up driving or cutting lanes for others as he comes off pin downs, flares to the corner or runs hard on DHO’s. Meade attempted to play some zone in this one and before long, Coard found weak spots in the corner to drill catch-and-shoot triples. There isn’t much depth to Coard’s attack off the dribble game to this point, but he doesn’t need it considering he can get to spots quickly off 1-to-2 dribbles and pull the trigger before his defender can get a clean contest. He accounted for four three’s in this showing.
