Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Overview of my skill set from PrepHoops on 2/17/2025 - "A combo lead guard has a strap. He has a good feel to throw the dime and makes smart reads. He will score with run out layups, blow by’s with his left hand with a super tight handle and a sneaky burst of speed. He makes his money though with his shooting. He truly is one of the better shooters off catch with range. He scored 21 points"

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

Even keel competitor who doesn't get too high or too low. Dives after loose balls and wants the ball when it is crunch time. Very coachable.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Consistently receive the Golden Scholar award for academic excellence. I participate in high school basketball and baseball. Very involved in church activities.
