Walker is a confident young guard who already shows a natural feel for perimeter scoring. His mechanics and willingness to pull up off the dribble separate him from most guards his age. As his frame develops, the combination of outside shooting and playmaking vision could make him a dual-threat guard who forces defenses to pick their poison.

Read EvaluationVictor Scott | Prep Hoops Scout
Jaylon played well Saturday in 2 games, scoring 9 in Game 1, followed by 19 in Game 2. He found himself knocking down shots from behind the arc with accuracy and scoring in transition, attacking guards for runners and floaters in the lane. His defense was sharp as he pressured ball handlers and played solid on the help side in the passing lane. He earned trips to the free-throw line by using his speed to get by defenders and his ability to switch pace with the ball.
