Read EvaluationSpencer Christenson | Prep Hoops Scout
In the matchup I saw for Sanford Sports Academy ND 17U White, Sanford was by far in a way the superior team. That made it tough for me to give a full evaluation on Sam, but as good players do, Glandt showed his superiority and was effective and produced in nearly every opportunity he had. He’s really nice guard that I’m high on. A solid frame and a body perfect for basketball, with lean muscle with some size as well. He moves well and he used his frame to bully his opponents a little and go through contact for finishes. A smooth touch and high percentage scorer when he gets in the middle. I didn’t see him shoot the three If I remember correctly, probably mostly because he knew he didn’t need to in the matchup. Smart player with a well-rounded game and profile. He’s a college prospect that seems to have a highly-recruitable profile.

WHY?
-Playing the best for SSA white, applying heavy B-pressure, taking away angles
-Getting to rim & finishing strong, draws doubles & finds the open man
How does his shot from 3 look, can he hit them consistently?
