On Friday I watched Westside vs Bellaire, which is a rival here in Houston.. Westside won the game 67-62. I have watched Bellaire play many times this season and they have some intriguing young kids. I just did an eval on Westside, nothing much has changed in 3 days for Westside-
2013 6’1 Darin Minnefield: plays within himself, doesn’t try to do anything he can’t do. Make simple decisions/simple plays. Good toughness, good motor, good athlete, can score in transition. Will defend. Needs to improve his perimeter shooting. Some Southland schools have showed interest.
2016 6’4 Joshua Hall: Has great upside, good skill set/long /versatile for his age/size. Looks like he’ll grow into at least 6’7. Playing Varsity as a freshman. Doesn’t get a lot done now, but shows flashes. Improving everyday, he’s definitely one to keep an eye on. Definitely a top 5 freshman in Houston
2015 5’11 Jarren Greenwood: Makes plays and big shots already. He’s not scared to take/make big shots. He can get to spots with the ball and finish at the rim. Good toughness. I really like him!
2015 6’4 Christian James: Powerful/athletic wing. Not a 3 ball shooter yet, but really effective from 15ft and in. Can really slash and draw fouls. It will b interesting to see if he can extend his game to more on the perimeter with improved ball skills & perimeter shooting..
2013 6’0 Calvin Dean: undersized 2 guard but really good shooter. Not athletic, can’t break you down off the dibble. But if he gets his feet set can consistently knock down perimeter shots.
