Evaluator: Jonathan Hemingway
Location: Nike Elite 100 Camp (St. Louis, Mo.)
Mayer is a shooter, but he showed more to his game than just being a spot up kid. He flushed dunks on the break and showed some juice off the bounce. His quick release and accuracy are still the strong points to his game.

Evaluator: Brandon Clay
Location: Nike Elite 100 Camp (St. Louis, Mo.)
Mayer showed himself as a prep capable of shooting the ball with the best of them at the swing forward spot in the class. He was confident in letting it go with his feet throughout the camp.

Evaluator: Brandon Clay
Location: Nike EYBL Session IV (Suwanee, Ga.)
Mayer is an intriguing prospect given his length / willingness to run the floor. He’s a swing forward in size / skill. In 16 EYBL games, he’s shooting 28 percent from the 3-point line and 36 percent overall from the field.

Mayer is a wing shooting specialist. He has a great length and can hit the corner 3. He is not particularly athletic, but he can run in transition and finish. He did not realize all of his potential this year as he only averaged 4 points per game.
