Expert Analysis
Clayton Conover | Prep Hoops Scout
Lunsford has leapt into the conversation as one of the top shooting guards in the state, going into his final year with Green Mountain. Bringing great size at roughly 6’4, he has routinely provided knockdown shooting, taking what the defense gives him throughout each possession. His dramatic scoring production of late makes him a notable riser within this class. Steadily improving his handle since last season, the guard has become even more of a threat one on one. Lunsford posted 12.3 points and 3.9 rebounds per game while converting 39% of his three point attempts this past season with Green Mountain.

Lunsford is a talented name at roughly 6’4 or 6’5, bringing consistency knocking down shots along the perimeter. Effective off the catch, incoming closeouts rarely faze Lunsford on such attempts from distance. Continuing to show improvements with the ball, the guard has greater confidence leveraging multiple combo moves to break down his opponent. Should he get to the rim either from the drive or off-ball cut, Lunsford is a wiry strong finisher versus contact down low.

Lunsford adds shooting to their wing spot, adept at knocking down open shots or getting up a quick attempt past the closeout. Like any B and B team, they are not lacking in shooting among their top programs. Capable of handling the ball through traffic, the wing is not easy to stop with a head of steam.
