About Giovanni
Expert Analysis
Aaron Villa | Prep Hoops Scout
Giovanni is a good size wing that offers a great scoring option for the Skyhawks. He has a great build for his age and plays with a controlled physicality that allows him to bump off players by the rim for easy finishes. He has the tools to create for himself and score out of one on one opportunities. Giovanni is tough to stop in the open court and will jam it on the break. He has the opportunity to be a leading scorer for the Skyhawks this year.

Read EvaluationJustus Miranda | Prep Hoops Scout
Pesky defender who does his best work on the help side, using long strides to shift over on drivers, cut off the lane and make sure they cannot get a shot off. Reads when to double in the post as well as anyone, moving over and using his length to get a tip on the ball and force turnovers. Then he will kill you in transition with the open catch-and-shoot three, or from the corner in the halfcourt. A prototypical three-and-D guy.

Read EvaluationAaron Villa | Prep Hoops Scout
Giovanni is a big guard/wing that has some big upside. He uses his big frame and guard skills to get down hill and finish strong at the rim. His varsity experience allows him to physically dominate at the 15u level with ease. When Giovanni gets to the paint and will use a nice floater or spin and seal to get him self going. he is a capable three point shooter and can hit it off the dribble and the catch. He is a plus rebounder for his position and a very versatile defender being able to guard multiple positions at the 15u level.
