Doug Layer Jr
About Doug
Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Stepping up in defeat to give the state champs more than a run for their money, Layer delivered a 15-point performance while handling primary ballhandling duties for the bulk of the game’s 40 minutes. The junior floor general was effective getting to his midrange stop-and-pop game, elevating smoothly to get his shot off over lengthier defenders. He showed a dependable handle while resisting the urge to overdo it, getting to his spots efficiently and making clean decisions while playing strong off of 2 feet in the paint. Despite being relatively undersized, Layer also showed that he has the quickness, athleticism, and heart to maintain an impact in the floor game on a court full of D1 athletes. He should have a chance to attract scholarship-level attention over the next year despite not passing the eye test at first glance.
