I have mentioned before that a solid comparison for Iemmello is TJ McConnell from his days on the 76ers, only with a more accurate 3-point shot. That comparison continued to hold true during Iemmello’s impressive senior campaign. For example, Iemmello recently scored 23points in a win over Cheltenham. Iemmello’s speed and crafty handles make him a serious open court threat. In half-court possessions those assets combined with Iemmello’s quick first step and high IQ get him into the paint for floaters, lay-ins, and runners. He will also get into the lane and then drop a dime to the dunker spot or execute a kick out pass. Iemmello is a high percentage three-point shooter too. 

The comparison that keeps coming to mind for Iemmello is TJ McConnell from his 76er days, only with a better 3-point shot. Iemmello is s crafty guard with fantastic end to end speed, tight handles, and a high IQ. That trifecta enables Iemmello to push the fast break for scores or assists. On half-court possessions those assets combined with Iemmello’s quick first step, polished footwork and extensive list of dribble moves get him to the cup for lay-ins. On dribble drives where the defense cuts him off, Iemmello will execute drop passes to the dunker spot or kick outs to open shooters. As mentioned above, Iemmello is a solid three-point shooter. He is especially effective on pull up threes or 3PAs coming off ball screen action.   

 If you are a college coach looking for a point guard with speed, crafty handles, polished footwork, and high IQ, then Iemmello is your man. That list of assets gets Iemmello into the paint where he can then use his deep bag of fakes, pivots, and spins to finish among the trees. Iemmello also excels at playing off two feet. Once Iemmello is in close, he can finish with either hand. Iemmello is an extremely capable three-point shooter too. His ability to hit pull-up threes is impressive. A good NBA comparison for Iemmello would be a young TJ McConnell. Only Iemmello has a smoother and more accurate 3-point shot.
