Pino was one of the summer’s breakout scorers and players that I’m excited to see more of. Whenever we saw him, he turned heads as he’s one of the best iso scorers in the class. He’s a creator and a tough shot taker. He has a tight handle, gets to his spots, and can heat up quickly with the ball in his hands. Pino is confident in triple-threat situations; he makes defenders pay off the bounce or from deep and looks to be a gifted scorer all summer long. The only caveat is we have to see if that translates against real varsity talent. Palmer is losing a ton this year and will be forced to look for young talent to contribute. He has the chance to be a welcome addition and prove that he’s progressed in ways that will land him on varsity this season. He jumps onto the rankings after a summer of turning heads, and now it’s time to do it when it matters.
