Notes
Nike EYBL Peach Jam - 7/2021 - N. Augusta, SC
Offensively, he's a pretty good shooter off the catch coming off screens and in transition from behind the 3pt line. He also does a good job using his size in the mid-post, where he can shoot over the top of defenders. Defensively, he can guard the 2, 3 & 4; he's strong and long enough to mix it up on the interior and quick enough to defend on the perimeter. He also has quick hands, which leads to him getting his hands on the ball. Areas of improvement would be, improving his handle so that he can create his own shot off the dribble; that way, he won't have to rely on his teammates to create shots for him.
