Expert Analysis
Paul Hernandez | Prep Hoops Scout
The 6-foot point guard plays with good pace, controls the tempo of the Lions offense, is a good positional rebounder, which allows him to push the pace of play in transition, is a tough perimeter defender that gets into his opponents dribbling space. Blue had two impressive showings at the lead guard position, as he would go for 7 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists in the win over Legacy Christian of Valencia, followed by an impressive stat line against Bakersfield Christian, going for 7 points, 6 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 steals, and 1 block. Blue has dynamic handles, keeps the ball on a string to survey the floor, uses the behind cross, between cross, wide crossover, and the toss-cross to get his defender off balance, a great burst of speed to get by his initial defender, has nice touch on the floater down the lane, as well as the ability to score around height at the basket with the reverse or up-and-under lay-ups to evade shot blockers. Blue’s court vision and decision making with the ball in his hands was what impressed me the most. Blue weaves through the defense, finds open teammates off the drive and kick pass, or the use of the reverse pivot to find open players on the opposite side of the court, and makes timely reads in the pick and roll action finding teammates in stride to the basket. True point guard that looks to make plays and sticks to his strengths as a lead guard.
