Evaluation
July, 2009: Scott is an outstanding floor general. Scott pushes the ball in transition and finds open teammates for easy baskets. His excellent handle makes him difficult to defend as he can go right or left to beat you off the dribble. Scott uses a rhythm dribble to set up the defender before he makes his move to the basket. Scott likes to turn the corner off the high ball screen and looks to finish or kick out to an open teammate for the shot. He handles the ball well with both hands and has great control of his body. He does not put himself or his teammates in bad positions on the floor. He does not wow you with incredible quickness but gets by his man and makes the right pass or finishes the play himself. The cerebral guard is constantly communicating with his teammates and is the established leader on a talented team.
May, 2009: Scott is a great athlete with great blood lines (Former NBA player Charlie Scott is his father). Scott understands how to play and is a good decision maker in both transition and half court settings. He is a good communicator who is an extension of the coach on the floor. He's got great ball quickness and a quick first step that he uses to get by his defender. He can get into the paint at will and understands how to penetrate and pitch. He is patient in feeding the post waiting for his teammate to seal his defender before delivering the ball. He consistently made free throws at the end of games and is difficult to press. Defensively he has great lateral quickness, is tough on the ball defender, and is fundamentally sound away from the ball. He can shoot it from three and is great in transition at getting to the rim and finishing.
Notes
Travel Team: King James Southern Kings...
Another visitor this weekend, according to Scout.com, is 2011 point guard Shannon Scott of Alpharetta, Ga. (Milton), son of former North Carolina and NBA guard Charlie Scott. Scott, 6-1, has offers from at least a dozen major programs but not one yet from his father's alma mater. He is described as the type of quick, pass-first point that coach Thad Matta prefers for his offense.
