Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Another highly-regarded sophomore with USA Basketball experience, Moore got off to an uncharacteristically slow start in the game we saw but made up for it in a torrid second half effort. A dynamic lefty who’s continuing to transition to the lead guard spot, Moore was impossible to keep from the paint, highlighted during a personal spurt of 11 straight points to start the half which he punctuated with a stepback 3 to show he can keep defenses honest. Moore’s approach despite his early accolades is also refreshing, as he never takes a play off and uses his defensive ball pressure to kickstart his offensive attack going the other way. As he learns to slow down in the paint to let plays develop further, the sky is the limit for Moore with his nonstop motor and ability to get downhill seemingly at will.
