Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Finishing out a breakout year as a repeat junior, Mehu wasn’t too prolific in the scoring column but was nonetheless consistent in his two-way impact. He was at his best getting out in transition but also looked like the game was starting to slow down for him as a ballhandler and passer in the halfcourt, and he also showed nice touch as a finisher around the rim with either hand. Defensively, he was an effective secondary rim protector in smaller lineups and slid his feet impressively on the perimeter with Blair’s dynamic guards. Mehu’s ability to impact games on the margins without needing his number called should give him a chance to generate traction among D1 programs this spring and summer.
