Prep Hoops Lead Scout

Tafoya maximizes his role within the offensive flow, a dynamic guard. Effective spacing the floor off the catch, the guard is an impactful three point shooter with minimal space. Capable of rising up shots past the contest, Tafoya is impactful off the catch or while stepping into attempts off the bounce. They were proactive attacking the paint, awaiting the closeout to rip through for a drive or quick mid-range pull-up jumper. Defensively, Tafoya can hold up against opposing lead guards, quick but strong versus backcourt opponents.

Tafoya and the Tigers got past top seeded Kent Denver in a big way and they look to continue the momentum moving into the next round. Gabe has stepped up for the Tigers since the playoffs has started and he has been attacking on the offensive end. Tafoya has been getting out in transition and finishing at the basket. He has been turning his own steals into easy points as well. Tafoya is a knock down shooter and has been converting at the charity stripe as well. On the defensive end Tafoya chipped in against Kent Denver and was crashing the boards heavy. He led the team in rebounds and also had his hand in the passing lanes. Tafoya will have to carry this momentum into the next game as he has been able to contribute as a much needed scorer for the Tigers.
