Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
In what would be the last game of his high school career, Baker went out with a flurry in an effective 16-point effort. He got off to a hot start with his vintage midrange game, working from the middle of the floor to get to his spots and rise up over smaller defenders with his soft touch. Baker would step things out later in the game showing enticing flashes of pullup shooting from 3 at his size. Once he gets into the flow of the game he also shows an ability to impact as a playmaker on D. The size and shotmaking make for a really interesting late addition for scholarship-level programs of a wide range of levels late in the cycle, with consistency being the only thing holding him back from steady D1 recruitment.
