Read EvaluationKyle Sandy | Prep Hoops Scout
One of the highest upside guards in Middle Georgia, Deven showcased his talent by collecting 14 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 block. Nelson is an exciting athlete. He can finish with authority when attacking the hoop. Deven has the traits of an impactful defender, able to meet opponents at the rim and capable of defending sideline-to-sideline and baseline-to-baseline. Nelson fouled out with 45.1 seconds left but before he did, he did damage in a variety of ways on offense. He sank a three, scored on a baseline cut and dropped in an And-1 floater. Deven cashed in at the foul line, going 5-6. College programs are tracking.
