Expert Analysis
Tom Keller | Prep Hoops Scout
Rajkovich flashed for his ESF team in both their games on Saturday. He made plays for his teammates. He scored in complimentary roles for his team. Rajkovich had no issue being the glue guy for his team. I like how he found different ways to make plays. He is tracking a scholarship prospect.

Stanley showed that he could connect on difficult shots from behind the arc on a handful of occasions throughout the game. He also scored through contact and got to the foul line. I wish he was more assertive on the glass on defense and found ways be more active on that side of floor due to his length and size advantage.

Returning after a breakout sophomore year, Rajkovich has picked up where he left off, averaging nearly 22 points per game while leading Derry to a 12-6 record so far this season. Coming off a buzzer-beating game-winner and having recently scored his 1,000th career point, Rajkovich thrives as a consistent mismatch with a blend of size, skill, and athleticism. He’s a highlight waiting to happen as a dunker in the halfcourt or transition while posing a steady threat as a floor-spacer to the perimeter and flashing as a playmaker off the bounce. Though still a bit inexperienced against players who can match his overall talent level, Rajkovich has a clear upside to move on to the D1 level as he continues to come into his own.

Rajkovich impressed with his scoring versatility and did a nice job of finishing in different ways around the bucket. He was able to finish through contact and traffic. Rajkovich went to the foul line on several occasions and converted most of his chances there even though he left some points on the board. He had a game high 24 points. It took him awhile to get in the groove to rebound I want to see him be more active on the boards and should be a walking double-double due to his size and length. He still tends to settle and times and can be clung to the invisible magnet on the 3 point line.

Rajkovich showcased his ability to score off the bounce early and often for Derry. He converted on a fair share of difficult shots throughout the game. He finished with three 3 pointers. He plays with an energetic motor and is always moving on the defensive end. I really liked the way Stanley found others for scoring chances with his passing and racked up several assists. Rajkovich did a nice job as a screen assister I felt like when the game was starting to get out of hand he tried to play hero ball too much and tried to do things he is not comfortable doing. Stanley had 20 points in the loss. I wish he tried to play down low more at times because he has a nice set of moves on the interior. I thought he could have been more active on the glass.

Despite a slow offensive start Rajkovich came alive in the second half showcasing his offensive dexterity. He was able to score at the charity stripe. Rajkovich found ways to be active on the glass and secured rebounds. If he is left out on the perimeter and his feet are set there is a good chance he will make you pay.

Pepperdine, Lafayette, & Mercyhurst all contacted Rajkovich who had an impressive showing when I evaluated him during the spring. He was a frequent threat to convert shots from behind the arc. His length and size allowed him to get rebounds. Rajkovich can also put the ball on the deck. Very intrigued by him long-term and has a great mindset about himself as a player.
