About Tristen
Expert Analysis
Ross Van De Griek | Prep Hoops Scout
The 6-1 sophomore combo guard has good length and is quick when he has the basketball in his hands. Payton can score on all three levels whether it’s around the rim, mid-range or shooting from the perimeter. On the defensive end, Payton can guard on-the-ball as well as off-the-ball at a high level where he applies good pressure and is active in the passing lanes. He can get steals and strips which lead to transition points on the offensive end where his ability to finish on both sides of the rim have continued to improve.
