Expert Analysis
Mark Miller | Prep Hoops Scout
A scoring sensation from the Milwaukee City Conference, Thorpe putting up huge numbers for the Cardinals of Milwaukee South. He went for 40 points in a recent loss to Waukesha North and added 33 in a one-point setback to Fort Atkinson. He is in constant attack mode with the ball in his hands and he gets where he wants on the floor off the bounce due to his shiftiness, quickness and confidence. He scores in the lane over taller defenders with a quick release. Thorpe uses the hesitation dribble to keep defenders off balance and then zooms into the lane to score or draw fouls. He also plays with solid court vision to go along with his penchant for getting to the basket.

Read EvaluationMichael Schneiderman | Prep Hoops Scout
Possessed quick handles with a point guard first mentality. Nifty with the ball. Helped team maintain lead and finish out a W for the day vs an on paper tougher squad. Sprayed it out quickly once defense collapsed for better shot selection. Can spot up and knock it down from 3 ball land or pull up from mid-range. Soft touch at the rim while changing speeds effectively. Keen demeanor affecting the game in a positive way.
