Paul VI | 2028
State
NJ
emerged as a legitimate breakout prospect during his sophomore campaign— developing into a confident and versatile high level perimeter shot maker and quickly establishing himself as one of the state’s most dangerous outside shooters for a Paul VI group that reached the NJSIAA South Jersey Non-Public A sectional semifinal. Backed behind a number of impressive shooting performances that saw him settle into a crazy rhythm on a lot of nights, Thatcher demonstrated not only the confidence he shoots it with but also the efficiency and versatility he shoots it with. An extremely confident shooter with a green light mindset and a quick and compact shooting release, Thatcher consistently excelled as a spot up shooter, stepping into open looks with fluid and balanced footwork and a smooth follow through, thrived as a movement shooter, sprinting to the corner in transition or relocating in passing windows in the half court, all while also knocking down outside shots off the dribble, taking in rhythm dribbles or creating separation off the bounce. Capable of impacting the game beyond his outside shooting, Thatcher also put together strong flashes of getting to the mid range area or finishing at the rim when the opposing defense ran him off the line.
