Expert Analysis
Victor Taylor | Prep Hoops Scout
Burleyson hasn’t had the hottest start to the year, but he showed out Friday in the win over Cornerstone Charter. He had 25 points and 4 steals, knocking down 5 3 pointers as well to go with it. He can shoot it as well as make plays in the mid-range, and it shows as his team expects him to score the rock primarily. He should continue to receive interest and exposure as his team gets some nice matchups later in the season.

Last Season Stats – 10.7 PPG 1.4 SPG, 39 3PM
Burleyson is a similar player to Ryker and should be in line for a big junior year. He’s comfortable playing both guard positions depending on the personnel, working as both an off ball threat or at times working at the point. Good shooter from all situations, but really likes to create from an isolation situation and score off the bounce. Comfortable getting to a pull up jumper or a layup from it.

Burleyson was a bit different in his shooting approach, as he immediately showed why he likes having the ball in his hands to get his shots off. While a good shooter off the catch, he made the magic happen off the bounce, getting to his spots and using his ability and quick twitch ball handling to get open looks. He splashed multiple threes per game and continued to show why he should knock them down at a high clip this high school season.

Burleyson ran the point for his group at times yesterday and was incredibly solid as a scorer and playmaker. He has a smooth jumper and knows how to get to his spots to knock down mid-range pull-ups and 3s. While a good shooter off the catch, he did most of his work off the dribble in the games I saw yesterday. Also showed poise to deliver nice passes to open teammates and make the easy read.
