About Jayden
Expert Analysis
Paul Hernandez | Prep Hoops Scout
The 6-foot lead guard is coming off a great sophomore campaign that led to a league MVP, a league title, and a spot in the D3 Section title game, and he looks poised to make another run at the Section championship game, as the Cavs return all of its core from last year and has some great sophomore length and size on the roster that should add depth and skill to a team with high expectations this coming season. Bergman had a solid showing in the final game of the day against Fresno Christian, where the Cavs had a slow start given it was playing the second game in a back to back set-up, but Bergman and his teammates got hot in the second half, as Bergman finished with 11 points, connecting on a three ball to help his team to a win. Bergman has dynamic handles, keeps the dribble alive to survey the floor, the court vision to make great reads to open teammates off the drive and kick pass, to the diver out of the pick and roll action, cross court to open shooters, and up the court to get the ball ahead of the defense. Bergman has shifty moves to create shots off the bounce, using the crossover combos, hesitation, fade-away, and spin-move to get free from his opponent, is effective with the jumper from the mid-range to the 3-point line, and is a crafty scorer around the basket, using the euro-step, up-and-under, and floater down the lane to score among big men. Bergman has active hands on defense to cause deflections, jump passing lanes, and poke the ball out to get the ball out in the open court.
