Expert Analysis
Kyle Sandy | Prep Hoops Scout
The Georgia Southern-signee flashed his high-skill level and crafty footwork in the pivot as he contributed 8 points, 7 rebounds and 3 blocks. He scored with a hook shot and had a nice spin move in the paint to free himself. Adding strength and playing through contact will be important for his development but all the tools are there for Clay to succeed at the next level after leading Pace Academy in scoring his senior season.
