Expert Analysis
Michael Roth | Prep Hoops Scout
A big scoring weekend from Driscal as his perimeter shot-making ability was extremely impressive. A quick athlete, Driscal’s quick first step and slashing ability usually gives him the space needed to hit pull-up jumpers and he was knocking these shots down at an extremely high clip in the game I caught. Athletically, Driscal has a quick second jump which allows him to get his own misses around the rim despite being a smaller guard. One of the best two guards in northeast Ohio, Driscal should have some nice recruiting buzz this summer.

Cleveland Central Catholic has a nice 2027 guard tandem between Driscal and King Young King Young 5'9" | PG Garfield Heights | 2027 State OH . Driscal is an athletic shooting guard who can knock down shots on the perimeter but wants to attack off the dribble in the half-court or transition. A flexible athlete, Driscal can change directions and speeds quickly and watching the way that he moves, it’s no surprise he’s also a standout on the gridiron. I’ll be curious to see if Driscal grows because that would allow him to defend bigger players and continue to be a guard who attacks closeouts and plays off the ball. One of the more talented under the radar names from northeast Ohio.

A new name for myself, Driscal is an impressive athlete for Cleveland Central Catholic who had a big football season and has continued this momentum into the winter. Driscal is a quick twitch guard who can change direction in an instant and was tough to stop in transition. Also showing some ball handling and shooting flashes, Driscal had a nasty behind the back move that led to a pull-up 3-pointer. Defensively, Driscal got his hands on the basketball often whether it was on the ball or as a help-side defender. A name to monitor in northeast Ohio’s 2027 class.
