Expert Analysis
Sam Duren | Prep Hoops Scout
One of the elite talents in Oklahoma. He’s blessed with size and athleticism that can’t be taught. And is also a confident and tough scorer. His jumper is progressing and he has a gamer like quality to produce in tough moments. Which indicates with more work, he should be able to become an efficient shooter. But he’s at a crossroads in his development. An ankle injury robbed him of much his time in Augusta with LeGYnds’ 16U team. But in the one full game he did play, there was a stretch that indicated where he needs to next progress.
Managing and reading a game.
In a nail bitting contest, there was a head scratching 4th quarter sequence from Mitchell. He went up against a double team in an attempt to draw a foul. But as it is at the national level, there was no call. The very next possession, he took a contested three pointer with 18 seconds still on the shot clock. The same look he could’ve got 15 seconds later. When protecting a late lead, it’s important to maximize possessions and the time.
There is another the key area of improvement. The ball sticks in his hands as a primary ball handler. In Oklahoma, it’s often fine. But to be ready to play at the high major level, he’ll need to see the floor better, be comfortable getting of the ball and the aforementioned better at managing the game in the half court.
