Expert Analysis
Andrew Baxley | Prep Hoops Scout
Jennings was a bright spot for the Timberwolves in the second half, scoring 11 of their 19 points over the final two quarters. He has been a constant this season for White Knoll, and tonight he was at his best when getting a defender one-on-one and taking them to the basket. But he also mixed in some efficient jump-shot making with a catch-and-shoot three and a mid-range pull-up. Not only is Peyton counted on to carry a big load offensively, but he is also a crucial defensive piece because he is one of the tallest players on their roster and has good instincts on the glass as well as in passing lanes.

Jennings had a very productive game in the matchup with Ben Lippen, racking up 16 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals, and 2 blocks. He picked up the Falcons’ top scorer – one of the best in the state – and did a really good job on him with his length and mobility. Peyton also played a variety of roles on the offensive end including middle-man against a zone, dunker-spot, and wing playmaker. Jennings excelled at all three as he made plays off the bounce, knocked down two threes, and converted on a pair of turn-around jumpers.
