Expert Analysis
Colby Giacubeno | Prep Hoops Scout
Dyches had an impressive ending to his high school career and could very well end up out-playing his rankings here in the long term. The 6-foot-2 combo guard is a threat from range and pulls the trigger quickly on the catch, giving his defender little to no time on closeouts to get a clean contest. With sound mechanics, a fluid release and the ultimate confidence, he has the ability to knock down four or more three’s in any given game if the defense isn’t locked in. He’s by far a one-trick pony though, as Dyches can maneuver well off the bounce with crossovers, spins or hesitations and expose driving lanes where he showed improved touch and body control on finishes this year. He’s a physical, stout defender who can check either guard position, remains active in the passing lanes off the ball and never hesitates to do his work on the glass.

Dyches has built off a strong summer where he helped Team Takeover National to a MADE Hoops Circuit title as his two-way presence as a combo guard was invaluable. His strong frame allows him to slide down multiple positions defensively and now as one of the focal points for this Potomac team, he has the confidence offensively as being the primary option while leading to wins as they sit 8-4 overall. The 6-foot-2 dual-sport standout has done a nice job touching different categories of the box score with averages of 17.3 points, 4.7 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game through the first 10. He can get into gaps with a quick first step and absorb contact around the rim while maintaining balance for finishes. He’s able to break his man down in iso’s, pose as a catch-and-shoot threat from three and does a nice job of processing on his paint touches to find bigs or cutters along the baseline as much of the defense’s attention is focued on him.
