Michael Herrick | Prep Hoops Scout
-18 points, 0/1 FT, 6 triples
-I had heard he was a shooter & Jalen proved that tonight
-Not just a sniper, he is a strong well-put-together guard
-Quick to dive on the floor for a loose ball
-Quick trigger but has good balance, confident
-Hit treys off the catch & dribble
-Has extended deep range
-Threw up a 3 before the shot clock went off, swished the buzzer-beater
-GREAT concentration, hand in face = no problem
-Loved his crack-back cut on a Jordan drive, cut/caught/cashed
-Showed a nice middle drive & kick out to Jordan for a 3
-Horace knew he was a shooter because Gunville did not have much space to operate, and he still drilled 6

This kid can flat out shoot it! Gunville is a player with the ability to change the game from behind the three point arc. His shoot looks really good, more importantly, it is accurate! Jalen also has an impressive physical stature for a freshman. His older brother Jaxon starts for the MSU Beavers, Jalen’s game has many of the same attributes as his big brother. But don’t forget, Gunville is not just a shooter, he is also a tough defender!

He is physically strong and the young Magician can fill it up in a hurry. Jalen is a very talented shooter and a volume scorer. His shooting stroke is darn near flawless and he is only in 8th grade!

is a combination of his two older brothers – he is a sniper like the oldest brother Jackson (Minot state) and a defensive stopper like Jaeger (Magi senior). Jalen can lock up and guard anywhere on the court. When Jalen is guarding, it is “no-funville” for opponents! The young Gunville is well on his way to becoming a star in Magic City!
