Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Among the more established scorers in his class nationally at this early stage, Phillips was up to his usual tricks on his way to an efficient 17 points despite Westtown’s championship loss at the buzzer. The jumbo guard shined with controlled aggression attacking downhill, rising up for multiple dunks in traffic and consistently drawing contact on his way to 11 free throw attempts. He showed improved poise as a decisionmaker once he drew extra defenders while also using his foot speed on the defensive end to cover ground and make plays in passing lanes. There aren’t many more effective downhill scorers in the class, with the rounding out of his floor game being a promising sign as it pertains to Phillips’ long-term development.
