Rob Lawson has the versatility that many coaches covet. He
has the scoring ability and offensive game to play as a scoring guard, but he
can also distribute the ball and facilitate the offensive in the mode of a
point guard.
He has a very well-rounded game, deserving of high marks in
many areas. He can stroke it from the perimeter in addition to being a very
effective penetrator. He passes the ball well also, which allows him to swing
to the point guard slot for significant minutes. He also has good athleticism
and the quickness that most coaches look for in guards. Lawson is also a good
defender, using his good foot speed and lateral quickness to stay with most
guards on the perimeter. He played
solidly for the USA National Select squad in their recent appearance in the
Atlantic City Showcase.
Kamal Francis is budding wing with a lot of raw talent and
ability, Francis has the type of long and athletic frame that makes his upside
easy to see. He's very rangy with a good nose for the ball. He can cover the
court, be a major factor in transition, and a weak-side shot-blocker.
He has a solid foundation on his jumper to continue to
develop and is gradually expanding the rest of his ball skills as well.
Long-term, he could be the type of versatile scorer who could not only thrive
in transition but also from various spots in a half-court game. Long athletic
attacking wing scorer that rebounds on both ends and plays with great energy
and urgency. Just getting his feet wet
on the national stage Francis had a solid weekend alongside some of the nation’s
best as a member of USA National Select.
Gionne Swann has all of the tools that coaches love to see
in point guards. He is quickly developing size and strength for a point guard while
using a method we have seen many time, playing off the ball against bigger
stronger guards – where he can knockdown his jump shot . He showed well in at the AC Showcase playing with
USA National Select.
Despite being slight of build, he has the quickness to
penetrate past defenders and get to the paint. He is one of the best shooters
with range extending out to three-point land. He has a good feel and
understanding of the game that point guards have to possess to be successful
and when his body catches up with his mind and shooting ability you will see a
huge jump in his overall production.
Currently he has the ability to give you buckets from anywhere inside
half court when he get his shot off.
Mark Pharos’s length and mobility is very in intriguing. He
runs, has rebounding and shot blocking ability. He is still raw offensively and
more effective as a face up then back to the basket. We like his overall strength and will be
looking for increased aggression – as when active he has the tools to impact
the game. A true big, those that know they have immense value and traditionally
are developed late; as a younger player he has very good upside and could be a
great reclass candidate.
