Expert Analysis
Colby Giacubeno | Prep Hoops Scout
Big weekend for Mason Jr., who looks to be one of the better prospects in the MIAA B Conference this season. He uses his blend of length and wiggle to get to his spots inside the arc, but also showed some improved touch and creativity with his drives to the cup. Mason doesn’t need to dribble ball to make his presence known as he showcased instincts as a mover without it, spotting up for catch-and-shoots that he converted with efficiency. His versatility bleeds over onto the defensive end where he could likely guard 1-4 positions throughout this season for head coach Sam Beverly.

8p 4r 3a 5s vs Huntingtown
-He didn’t take many shots in this game but was an effective midrange jump-shooter that impacted the game at the defensive end of the floor for his team in a win over Huntingtown. The pull-up elbow jumper going either way is money as Mason gets into his shooting form quickly off the bounce and is capable of making the shot over bigger guards. Mason hit a tough fall-away jumper pivoting away from the rim after the defender forced him to pick up his dribble, did a good job of touching the paint and kicking to corner shooters, and got his hand on a ton of passes in the frontcourt to turn his opponent over before they even reached halfcourt. Loved the pace and patience that he plays with as a good decision-maker that is constantly looking for the best shot for his team.

10p 4a 1r 1b
-Mason functions well as a connective wing that brings a diverse skillset to the floor as a shoot, pass, dribble wing that maximizes his touches. Mason attacked closeouts on ball reversals well from the wing as a good decision-maker that gets into gaps to force the defense to leave his shooters open. Mason started off the game with 3 straight assists in transition to build the early lead, timed a baseline rotation well to save a bucket in transition with an emphatic block, and showed good touch around the basket with short floaters.
