Demarion Lee continues to show why he is so highly regarded. Lee can score anywhere on the court, being a true three-level scorer. He’s a tough shot taker, but he’s also a tough shot maker. When driving, he’s almost impossible to stop at the rim, using his strength to power through defenders. One of his best qualities is the way he flows through the Bentonville offense. His points never seem forced, and he has a knack for setting teammates up for open threes.

Mar has that burst that immediately changes how defenses guard. He gets downhill and will rise over you to finish on the rim. He tends to finish with a mix of power and creativity that shows up every game. When the floor opens up, he becomes a real problem because he doesn’t need much space to turn the corner or force rotations. He makes smart decisions with the ball, alternating between scoring and playmaking for teammates.

Summer Focus: Getting more comfortable shooting off the dribble so he can score aggressively at all three levels efficiently. Adding a little more twitch in his footwork will help him get cleaner looks against bigger rim protectors and stay active as defenses load up.

Impact Path: If he keeps growing as a decision‑maker on those drives, making early reads, simple kickouts, trusting the pass, etc. He becomes a guard who controls the entire flow of a game. That shift from “dangerous guard” to “true lead engine” is where his long‑term ceiling really jumps.

Lee impressed with his length and versatility. He was active defensively, contesting shots and disrupting passing lanes, while also flashing a smooth mid-range jumper and some physicality in the paint. His upside lies in his ability to impact both ends and growing his consistency as a long-range threat.

After Har-Ber graduated key contributors, Lee made the move to Bentonville, trading one system for another and stepping into a program known for its structure. A smooth-scoring guard with a knack for creating offense off the bounce, he brings shot-making and a competitive edge to a team looking to reload and contend. His ability to adapt, defend multiple positions, and play within Bentonville’s system could be the glue that helps them stay in the mix in a deep 6A field.

Mar has moved to Bentonville, leaving Springdale Har-Ber behind, heading in a new direction and role with the Tigers. He shot the ball in volume, inside and outside, getting adjusted to finding his flow and rhythm. He played well on the break, getting out running with or without the ball, filling the correct lanes, and securing points or smart passes for points.

Lee has been playing a pivotal role for his squad as a utility player with a well-rounded contribution each game. He fits as a slasher looking to move without the ball but he can also get to the lane off the dribble and score inside. The 6’4 sophomore will be a key for the Wildcats for the next few years.

The sophomore scored 19 points as the second part of Har-Ber’s one-two punch. Did a lot of his damage as an off the ball shooter. Has smooth from on his jumper, complete with long arms that allow him to comfortably shoot over close outs from defenders. Also got loose for an alley-oop that he finished with authority in transition. Very good all around prospect with the clear upside to continue to improve.
