Redding, the lone non-senior on the entire ALA roster, has really taken big strides with his game since I last saw them in the season opener. His length was a major presence defensively for the Patriots, racking up 10 rebounds and 6 blocks, but the jump shooting and ball handling were what I was most impressed by with Braxton. Not only has he developed a comfortable handle, but now he is also a knockdown mid-range shooter with more room for growth into a three-point shooter. This team doesn’t need him to be a high-volume offensive player because of their two elite guards, but when he adds double-figure scoring, it makes them a very difficult team to beat.
