Expert Analysis
Colby Giacubeno | Prep Hoops Scout
The likely AA County Player of the Year looked better than the initial meeting in terms of coming out from the opening tip with a purpose. He wouldn’t explode in the scoring column like he did when he went for 32, but the comfort and control that he ran the Mustangs’ offense with in the half court was much more impactful this go around. It showed in a double-double fashion with 12 points and 10 assists as time-and-time again Scott would expose openings in the backline of the zone with one-hand zip passes to Somaoro or others for quick scores. He threw a couple of nice lobs to his big from the perimeter as he manipulated the backline with his eyes to make them think he was going to throw a skip pass to the corner. An underrated aspect of Scott’s game is his shot-blocking prowess for a point guard. He uses his springy athleticism and good timing as a weak side defender to catch others by surprise at the rim and accounted for three blocks in this one.
