Evaluator: Brandon Clay
Location: NBPA Top 100 Camp (Charlottesville, Va.)
Evans was flat awesome here on one of the biggest stages on the circuit. He finished with either hand in transition and is lightning fast. Evans showed himself to be one of the top 3 to 5 point guards in the camp in 2015. His handle allowed him to create and get downhill. Defensively, he was able to get multiple on ball essay on my house in french language steals and convert at the other end.

Evans turned heads this weekend with his presence on the floor. Perhaps the turning point moment occurred when he got out into transition and was challenged by Kobi Simmons (GA-16) at the rim. Evans bodied the long, athletic Simmons and finished for a 3 point play. His strength and skill give a perfect complement to his high IQ game.

Evans is a play-making point guard who uses the freeze dribble to create space for himself. He is a perfect complement for this Team Texas Elite team as he is surrounded essay on business ethics by shooters and there are gaps for him to penetrate.

Location: Bob Gibbons Tournament of Champions (Suwanee, Ga.)
Evans reminds me of Jordan McLaughlin (CA-14), who signed with USC out of HS, in stature and energy burst. This weekend he led his team to a Gibbons championship with the SC Raptors without another top 100 player alongside of him. He is an aggressive scorer, especially in transition. He attacks the defense and puts the defender at a decision. He does a great job of finishing around the rim.

Evans was good here hitting a tough right-handed floater in traffic. He essay on service quality likes to attack despite possessing a slender frame. Evans was reluctant to shoot the open 3-pointer here but showed himself to be one of the top 8-10 point guards nationally in the class.
