-Stopped allowing his team to settle for jumpers and really turned it up in the 2H to lead his team to a comeback victory by relentlessly getting into the paint before finishing at the rim. His finishing bag around the rim stood out as Hightower scored off spin moves, simply accelerating past and out-quicking his matchup for extension lays at the rim, and hitting pull-ups or floaters in the paint. Despite average size and build, his ability to get to the line and play through contact makes him more valuable as a scorer. Vision and delivery on his passes were on point, just would like to see him look for those reads more often at the next level–although my viewings were strictly in a camp setting, that context matters. Had by far the best offensive performance of the game with 37p 8r 5a 1s in the win.

Gavin Hightower Gavin Hightower 6'0" | PG Sierra Canyon | 2025 State #99 Nation CA-S is a quick and athletic player who contributes on the glass as a defensive rebounder and initiates fast breaks. He has a good touch around the rim with either hand and is a competitive one-on-one defender. Additionally, he is a good playmaker and passer with good vision, capable of creating opportunities for his teammates.
