-I have a special place in my heart that players that come off the bench and give their team an instant boost whether they stay in the game for 3 minutes or 10 minutes. Hill is a phenomenal rebounder for his size/position and comes up with a ton of offensive rebounds to extend possessions for his team. Love his ability to attack closeouts from the wing and either finish at the basket or earn a trip to the FT line. With his strength and relative size, he can slide on the perimeter with guards or body up with forwards on the block. One of the more unselfish but impactful rotation players that takes advantage of his opportunity whenever his number is called.

Hill strung together a monster few months at Capitol Hoops Summer League, ending as the top scorer with 28.8PPG. He also hauled in 5.7RPG and 2.2APG while eclipsing the 30-point mark on multiple occasions. He’ll be starring for St. Johns (DC) regional team and looked as as the primary offensive option, which should continue to expand his overall skill as a combo guard. Opposing teams will zero in on his scoring prowess and throw double teams his way, so seeing how he adjusts and uses his gravity to make others better will be something interesting to track as the season unfolds.

Hill put together a monster showing throughout DeMatha Summer League from a scoring perspective. He averaged 22.5PPG on an efficient 52.8 percent from the field as well as 5.7RPG, 2.2APG and 1.7SPG. His presence impact the glass from the guard spot adds value and also creates more opportunity for himself to start the fast break and showcase his overall playmaking ability. After spending last season improving on the junior varsity level, Hill looks fully prepared to jump to the varsity level and produce as a consistent piece within the rotation.

12p 2r vs Thrill (4/5 FG)

-Love the simplicity in Hill’s game as a wing prospect that can really shoot it but also isn’t afraid to attack the rim. Hill knocked down a corner 3 to start the game, scored off a putback at the rim, used his shooting gravity to hit his defender with an up fake and baseline drive to hit the layup off the window, then knocked down another wing 3 before the game was called due to moisture on the floor. Hill didn’t look out of place athletically against a good stable of Thrill guards and can guard 1-3 pretty effectively as a nice new addition to this TTO National group.
