He is also considered to be an above-average rebounder for his size and uses his length to an advantage. Drayton has the potential to be a breakout player at the next level as he continues to play with a high motor.

Drayton is super athletic and quick off the floor with lots of bounce.  The 6’3″ senior does a little bit of everything for this Sarasota squad.  His athletic and jumping ability make him a force on the glass, and also on defense where he has the ability to alter and block shots.  He’s a a great on-ball defender and his speed helps force defense into offense, where he can be dangerous in transition.  He has a solid outside game, but likes being aggressive and taking it to the whole, where he’s effective at finishing at the rim.  Drayton has a lot of upside and with a solid senior campaign should be on the radar of many coaches at the next level.
