Expert Analysis
Teddy Bahu | Prep Hoops Scout
Alvarez is a solid sharpshooter out of Loyola that comes up with key buckets when you need them. Smooth shooting stroke that was on full display against Rockford Auburn on Saturday. Even showed he can create off the dribble and take mid-range shots throughout this game. Auburn made it a priority to have him covered as much as possible, knowing the threat he is from outside. Big second half in this game with multiple three pointers with an acrobatic reverse layup as the cherry on top.

Alvarez did a little bit of everything in a tight opening-night win against Lake Forest. He moved well along the perimeter to free himself for three-point looks, knocking down two on the night. He showed confidence attacking closeouts, using a controlled jump stop in the lane and making timely feeds to teammates — which also helped him draw fouls.
Defensively, Alvarez was active and disruptive, pestering ball-handlers and positioning himself to take charges, something he excels at. He also showed a guard’s instinct for rebounding, consistently looking for and attacking opportunities to secure boards.
