Final Evaluation
Alexander Patlan, of Austin (TX) Stephen F. Austin Highschool, is a 5'4 109lb 2022 prospect from our Fall 2018 HOU camp. College coaches on camp staff identified Alexander as having college potential. Alexander has a decent wingspan, which can be even more effective with active hands/feet. Additionally, the prospect appears to have solid size for position and should use their size to be a pesky defender. The player does a pretty good job of distributing the basketball. With continued emphasis of seeing the whole floor at all times, that skill will become a valuable asset. In terms of ball handling, the prospect showed a great handle and is on the way to being a primary ball handler. The prospect displayed a good basketball IQ during camp that should continue to improve. Through continued emphasis on making the right play through watching/learning the game, it can be a big advantage in recruiting and separating from others. A big part of IQ is shot selection. Alexander knows when there is proper time and space to shoot the ball and should continue develop this knowledge through watching how this is done at various college levels. Making the extra pass and taking only open in-rhythm shots will make this player a joy to coach in college. The prospect displayed sound shooting mechanics that will continue to develop with form shooting and made game speed repetitions We recommend making at least 750 game speed shots a day off the screen(curl/fades), off the bounce, spot shooting, etc. The talent was a decent finisher around the rim. With continued work finishing through traffic with either hand, through contact, and developing more finishing moves, the player will become a threat at the rim. The talented player has solid athletic ability for size and age. ScoutsFocus would like to see continued development in speed/agility and vertical development. Jump rope drills are great full body conditioning drill we highly recommend if not ready for a rigorous weight-training program. We would like to see continued strength development whether it is via traditional strength training means or body weight military type development(pushups/pull-ups). Combined with the player's developing frame, the player will be physically competitive with continued work in the weight room. The talent has a decent motor(highly coveted skill by college coaches). We would like to see continued understanding that every possession is a priority and from what we saw, toughness from the player was shown some throughout camp. The player showed flashes on the defensive end of having the potential to be a reliable defender and should continue to focus on individual and team defensive concepts emphasized at camp. Alexander has college potential with continued hard work and development both in the classroom and on the hardwood. Can play the 1. AAU Team: Kyle Saints.
