was on fire in this game. It really felt like he could not miss from downtown. He hit a bundle of threes in this game off the catch. And this was mainly due to his extremely fast and effective release. His touch from distance was as soft as you can get. And even with contests or not much space for him to get his shot off, it never seemed to bother his mechanics much. He displayed a very compact, fluid, and fast stroke. And the depth of most of his shots was very impressive for a shooter at the high school level. His footwork and balance as a shooter also stood out. He displayed an ability to hit threes on the move and control his momentum and keep his form in check. He hit threes off the dribble as well. Step-back threes were another method he used to make it rain in this game. And he was such a threat as a shooter coming around screens that he was fouled on his jumpers and still made the shot through contact. His shooting threat allows him to pump fake defenders and get them off balance. Which got him downhill, where he showed that his touch also translates to his floater. Which he was able to hit through contact for and-1 finishes. Tough layups through traffic were another area of his scoring that was impressive as well.
