Expert Analysis
Will Armishaw | Prep Hoops Scout
Melson decided to end his recruitment when the high academic prospect announced that he will attend Hamilton College. Coming off a solid summer with the New England Storm, Melson has continued to elevate his game. A big wing, he provides a real floor spacing weapon with his ability to consistent knock down shots from the perimeter. He’s a high IQ prospect that understands the flow of offense and has shown to be a quality, instinctive cutter. He’s comfortable making plays with the ball in his hands and shows good floor vision and feel as a passer. Defensively, he plays with a good motor that allows him to be effective as a rebounder and disruptor in passing lanes. With his combination of size, strength, and athleticism, he can guard, at least, up and down a position at the next level. Hamilton lands a terrific first piece in their recruiting class, as Melson profiles as a big time shot maker at the next level, capable of eventually playing at an all-league level in the NESCAC.
