Notes

Pangos All-American Festival - Phoenix, AZ - 11/7 - 8/2020


He showcased the ability to create off the dribble, quickness i the open court and the ability to finish in traffic in limited minutes. He played stout defense applying on ball pressure disrupting the offensive flow. Also did a decent job playmaking for his teammate, had a nice pocket pass off the bounce with the left hand.
