6p 6r 1a 3b 2s vs Miller
-One of the more physically-imposing guards in the area grew an inch and has filled out his frame even more by attacking his strength and conditioning program at SJC. His upside defensively was on display as he collected two blocks and a steal by halftime, showing his effectiveness both on and off the ball as an aggressive defender that takes calculated risks within SJC’s defensive schemes. Love the way that he anticipates where his matchup is driving to and when they are going to hit him with a pump fake or shoot the ball under the basket–showing advanced feel for a prospect his age. Want to see him be more aggressive with the ball in his hands to become a consistent double-figure scorer for a SJC group that will need it. He’s worked hard on his jumper and his handle has improved to become an efficient secondary creator from the wings. Did see that assertive nature on a rip n go through the defense straight down the pipe for an emphatic dunk and later in the game on an attempted poster dunk after collecting another steal in transition.
