Playing for one of the top programs in the state, Matthews is an athletic wing with positional size. He was impressive with Game Elite
on the adidas 3SSB circuit. The rising sophomore can be a three level scorer but is at his best in transition, attacking the rim and on the glass at this point.
Tools-forward wing with switchability; offense trending as the shot repetition and handle tighten. Terrific ceiling to stride toward. Will improve rapidly in practice. Take-over ability downhill.
Sky-high ceiling as a do-everything swingman. Inside-out attacker. Athletic offensive rebounder with great hands. Creates on the perimeter off the dribble. Draws fouls downhill. Hits enough jump shots to keep defenders honest. Stat sheet stuffer.
