Expert Analysis

-Griffin stood out several times this summer as a block-chested, physical downhill driving guard. Griffin uses his upper body to create space for himself on drives to the rim and takes great angles when attacking closeouts from the perimeter. He has a bit of a set shot but is a useful and effective C+S threat on the perimeter with a consistent release. Should bolster the guard depth at Cesar Chavez this year in new threads.

-Liked the aggression and diverse skillset from the rising senior guard on the circuit playing with Team Signs. Griffin impacts the game as a physical ballhandler that bullies his way to his spots in the halfcourt but can also make plays from the wings as a passer and shooter. Griffin takes pride in forcing dribble pick-ups and turnovers on the defensive end of the floor and isn’t afraid to scale up a position or two to guard big wings or forwards. Should be an impact transfer in the DCIAA this season.

-First viewing of Team Signs (Puma) and came away impressed with Griffin’s offensive game. He hit four 3s, proved that he can take guards off the bounce and finish well at the rim over bigs, and can defend either guard spot with physicality. Loved the intensity and assertive play that I saw out of him at both ends of the floor.
