About Damarius
Expert Analysis
Clayton Conover | Prep Hoops Scout
The guard is about as consistent of a perimeter scorer as anybody in the class, lights out beyond the arc and off the bounce. Already a notorious shooter off the catch, the guard brings immense gravity out behind the arc, opening up the floor on drives or mid-range attempts. With an aggressive defense helping early, Taylor was active making bounce passes to cutters once the help arrived.

In what will be the last matchup of the night for 6A, Taylor will get a chance to ball on the biggest stage. Taylor is a good knock down shooter and can create when he drives to the basket as well. Taylor has pretty good handles and he can utilizes them when he is driving to the basket and creating space when he gets the ball down low. He can stop and pop or he is able to acrobatically finish at the rim as well, finishing through contact on occasion. On defense Taylor has quick hands and can poke the ball away from ball handlers, turning into fast break opportunities for the Raiders. He not only is able to come away with steals but he can also come up with blocks as well. Taylor is the third leading scorer for the Raiders but has the capability to lead the team if he is asked. He will draw a tough matchup as the Jaguars have good defensive guards. Taylor will look to try and create opportunities early and this should be a low tightly contested game.
