Garner’s broad and sturdy frame masked his well-rounded talent and game. With great timing and hand-eye coordination, he brought a physical presence to his team by blocking several shots and altering a dozen more. But he also displayed some finesse, spacing the floor and initiating transition offense with long outlet passes.

Read EvaluationAri Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Garner only scored two points but nonetheless stood out with his play up front off the bench. A versatile forward with a sturdy frame, he’s impactful already at the varsity level as both a rebounder and rim protector. He showed promising flashes as a passer out of the post with strong hands and a nice foundation as a ballhandler. He’ll have to work to reapportion some weight but should be really strong as he matures over time. Garner tracks as one of the more intriguing frontcourt prospects in the state at this early stage.
