Levan Alston – (Philadelphia, Penn.), – Team Final– 2015
Height: 6’4″
Position:  Shooting Guard
Committed College: Temple

Date: July 18, 2014
Evaluator: Jonathan Hemingway
Location: Nike EYBL Peach Jam (North Augusta, S.C.)
Alston is a wing player with a quick trigger in the midrange. He showed nice footwork in the lane as he stepped through defenders to hit floaters above taller defenders. He can run the point as a second option for a team. His jumper from essay on my pet monkey the arc appeared to have a bit of hitch in it today.

Evaluator: Brandon Clay
Location: NBPA Top 100 Camp (Charlottesville, Va.)
Like the eval in May, Alston showed himself to be a solid slashing option at the off guard position. His slender frame made it tough for him to get all the way to the rim in this setting and he struggled a bit to get his jump shot going.

Alston played a wing position here at camp. He played hard, but he help with writing essays for free had trouble exerting his will upon the game. He did not have a definable specialty in the viewing that I had of him.

Alston is a slender off the ball option capable of scoring from the wing. He didn’t showcase himself as a shooting or slashing specialist like classmate Malik Beasley (GA) has but was solid in both areas. Strength will be an area of emphasis for Alston early in his career.
