One of the top pull up jump shooters in the city. Excellent stopping quickly and getting off his shot. What is most impressive is that a lot of the times it is against taller defenders. Excellent ball handling and passing skills. A very underrated player in the city from a recruiting radar standpoint.

is an upperclassmen you have to pay attention to this season. Gaston is an aggressive scorer, always looking for his shot, and shoots a solid percentage from behind the arc. Gaston exudes confidence in his game, and you can tell this trickles down to his teammates. Despite being such a good scorer, Gaston is still an unselfish player. It’s nice to see a shooter with confidence, not just throw up wild shots. But instead, have the patience to run the offense and find the open man. For McClancy this season, Gaston will have a lot of opportunities to put the ball in the bucket. And his games will be must watch for College coaches looking for a small guard who can score at a high clip.
