About Xavier
Expert Analysis
Will Armishaw | Prep Hoops Scout
Howell, a guard out of Phillips Andover Academy, checks in at #120 overall and #20 among the combo guards. Howell is a dynamic ball handler with twitchy movements off the bounce. He’s elite at creating space with dribble moves, getting into his scoring package or creating plays for teammates when he gets a piece of the paint. He’s comfortable playing off the ball as a shooter and also does a nice job of operating out of ball screens, where he’s able to turn the corner at will. Defensively, he’s a point of the attack defender that creates plenty of turnovers by getting his hands on the ball in space.
