Read EvaluationSpencer Christenson | Prep Hoops Scout
I’ve seen Zy a number of times already this offseason and he always performs for The Next Level Basketball Academy 14U-1 team. His 3-point shooting is a key ingredient to the team’s success and he can get them to drop in bunches, at times. He can pump-fake from three and get going and be a threat attacking the hoop as well. Messmer provides value for the squad and its success.
