Spalding has great size, length and skill at the position. He could very well become economics essays a 5-star caliber performer at the collegiate level before it’s all said and done. Spalding went toe-to-toe with Montverde’s Ben Simmons in this one.

Spalding is a bit of enigma when it comes to evaluations. He is 6-10 and runs the floor as any kid at his position. He jumped on loose balls and blocked 3 shots here versus Oak Ridge (FL). He has impeccable timing on the defensive end as he is able to deflect and change shots very well. He has been coached very well on his sealing technique as he shows his hands and gets in a stance to create angles to score. However, it appears that he does essay on my sweet home in hindi not like contact to play on the interior. He finished with a less than impressive 4 of 15 from the floor and was only 4 of 8 from the free throw line. He did grab 10 rebounds in the win. However, you just get the sense that he could produce more given his talent.

Spalding didn’t showcase a essay on my role model bill gates specific speciality in this eval but showed flashes of the all around game needed to excel at the forward position. He can play above the rim, shoot the outside jumper and handle well enough to serve as a secondary ball handler.
