The 6-foot-2 point guard is a physical and skilled player that makes plays for others, plays at his own pace to control the flow of the game, can create his own scoring opportunities, and can score from 3-levels, which opens up options for him to create off the bounce. Harbin continues to show he has emerged as one of the premier point guards in the Section, as he is poised for a big senior season that was boosted by a D2 Section title and Player of the Game honors in that win to highlight his understanding of when to employ his playmaking skills, or when it is time to create his own shots. Harbin had his control of the flow of the game in a big win over Clovis East on Day 2 of the Shootout, where he would finish with 7 points, 8 assists, and a pair of steals to highlight his two-way impact on the game. Harbin has a strong handle on the ball, the poise to keep the dribble alive to find holes in the defense, the court vision and strength to zip the ball around the court to open teammates, to find open teammates off the drive and kick pass, to the diver out of the pick and roll action, cross court to open shooters, and up the court to get the ball to open players ahead of the defense in stride. Harbin has active hands, great lateral footspeed, and a quick twitch to deflect passes, jump passing lanes, as well as alter shots on the perimeter. Harbin has great body control, a plethora of moves to create off the bounce, and is accurate with the jumper, along with the creativity to score around the basket and evade shot blockers.

The 6-foot-3 lead guard is a physical and skilled player that can score from 3 levels, create scoring opportunities for teammates, and a high-level two-way player that can turn the tide of the game in an instant. Harbin had a huge first game in a win over Clovis North, going for a game-high 24 points, connecting on 3 threes, as well as 6 steals and 4 assists, and controlled the flow of the game from start to finish. Harbin followed his strong first game with a 17 point, 4 assist, and 3 steal showing in a win over Franklin, and showed he is one of the top seniors in the Section and is primed for a big senior season. Harbin has a strong handle on the ball, keeps the dribble alive to survey the floor, has a variety of moves to get his defender off balance, using the various crossover combos, hesitation, step-back, fadeaway, and spin-move to create space from his opponent, changes pace and direction with the ball to keep his defender guessing, is accurate with the jumper from the mid-range to the 3-point line off the bounce, and is a crafty scorer around the basket, using the euro-step, up-and-under, spin-move, and reverse lay-ups to score in tight windows around the basket. Harbin is an elite on-ball perimeter defender with active hands, timing, and lateral footspeed to stay in front of his opponent, poke the ball out, deflect entry passes, or jump passing lanes to generate steals and turn defense to offense.
