While watching Garner, you can tell that he is a veteran who understands who he is as a player. To illustrate this, take a look at his 88%(!) field goal percentage this season, including a ridiculous 25/26 from two. He is a great athlete who makes an impact on both ends. He is great at finishing inside and demonstrates great touch at the basket. He has been a force on the glass as well. When you combine this with his ability shoot the three when needed (4/7 this year so far), you end up with the kind of player that every guy wants to play with.

One of the things that I noticed about Garner was that he does a very good job of finding the soft spot in traffic for guys to get him the ball. This is a subtle thing, but it is very effective and is one of the things that helps him be a difference maker even as a player who is not ball-dominant. He is currently one of the leading scorers in Class B, and figures to be a key piece for a Norris team that has championship expectations.

Garner returns to Norris for his Senior season after averaging 14.7 last year. He brings a lot of experience to this team and is someone I expect to be one of the best players in Class B.

Garner possesses a lot of unique abilities that are essential to his team. He has the size and athleticism to guard all positions on the floor effectively. He has a great jumper and has a myriad of finishing moves he can use when getting to the rim.

A 6’4″ wing, Garner is a long ball-handler that can handle the ball and finish at the rim with soft touch. An athlete that doesn’t get sped up, Garner plays at his own speed, can shoot from the outside and possesses a high release that makes his jumper difficult to defend.
