Expert Analysis
Paul Hernandez | Prep Hoops Scout
Gunther was cooking all weekend long at the Invitational, and seemed to take his game to new heights when the competition got tougher. The 6-foot-1 lead guard had a stellar showing against Garner Road and top 10 nationally ranked Jordan Page, and followed that up the next day with an electric showing in a tough loss to Game Elite and Top 15 nationally ranked Nasir “Rudy” Anderson. Gunther keeps his dribble alive and moves with purpose, keeps his head on a swivel to survey the defense with the precision to find open teammates off cuts or the pick and roll action, moves fluidly off the ball to get open looks from beyond the arc off the catch, which he connected on with regularity. Gunther has shifty moves to keep his defender back-peddling, with use of the in-and-out and wide crossover dribble to create space, can stop on a dime for the mid-range jumper, and has a nice burst of speed off the bounce with great touch on the floater, either down the lane or off the baseline drive. Relentless motor and fearless of the big moments, as Gunther hit big shot after big shot in the two games I saw him play live, and he left impressions on scouts and coaches in attendance.
