Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
The third piece of a dynamic three-headed junior backcourt, Carroll recorded his second straight double-figure performance to start the PCL season with a crucial 15-point effort. With his backcourt mates focused on knifing downhill to make plays off the bounce, Carroll took advantage of the space on the perimeter to cash in for 5 3s, most coming via catch-and-shoot opportunities. Carroll consistently relocated to open space both out of designed actions and in the run of play, showing off a polished quick-release stroke. He also showed some skill and quickness in the dribble-drive game when run off the line. We’d like to get a chance to see him in more of an on-ball role at some point, as Bonner’s multi-guard lineup relegates him mostly to a complementary role, but Carroll’s shooting ability coupled with experience in the rigors of PCL play should put him at least on scholarship radars by this time next year.
