Junior guard Rowen Throrton has evolved into a complete scoring threat for the Tallasse Tigers this season. The talented 6’4″ playmaker is putting up staggering numbers, averaging 24.3 points per game while leading the Tigers to a 7-6 record so far. Throrton has an advanced scoring arsenal with the ability to shoot from all three levels as well as finish strong drives to the rim. He has scored 30+ points three times, including a season-high 50 points against Ellwood Christian. Even with the extra defensive attention, Throrton continues to produce big numbers as the clear go-to catalyst of the Tigers’ offense. His head coach has praised his work ethic and describes him as “one of the most dynamic scorers I’ve ever coached.” If Throrton keeps up this elite scoring pace, he could lead the surging Tigers back into playoff contention in the second half of the season.
 

Rowen Thornton continued to add confidence throughout the camp and it was clear by the day’s end that Thornton was one of the more talented prospects in the gym. Thornton was really showing off the springs, a countless number of dunks on the afternoon. He proved effective as a spot-up shooter as well and made the most of his open looks. Thornton will continue to tap into his full potential as he adds strength and polishes the skillset. His #102 ranking could very well be on the rise after a great showcase.
