  • Final Evaluation Jathen Ross, of Bossier City (LA) Benton H.S., is a 6'0 150lb 2021 prospect from our Spring 2019 Dallas camp. College coaches on camp staff identified Jathen as having division 1 potential. Jathen has a good wingspan, which can be 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's Basketball IQ definitely stood out at camp and proved to be really good. Through continued emphasis on making the right play through watching/learning the game, it can be a big advantage in recruiting. A big part of IQ is shot selection. Jathen does a great job of understanding when there is enough time and space to shoot the ball and will continue to develop this knowledge by watching how this is done at various college levels. Making the extra pass and taking only open in-rhythm shots proved to be a reliable asset for the prospect. The prospect was able to consistently knock down shots during camp showing to be a reliable asset. Shooting will continue to develop with form shooting and made game speed repetitions. We recommend making at least 500 game speed shots a day off the screen(curl/fades), off the bounce, spot shooting, etc. The talent did a tremendous job of finishing around the rim through various moves. The prospect showed great ability with both hands and has the potential to finish on any defense. The talented player has very good 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. The prospect is very strong for their age. The college game is an entirely different beast so continued strength development is crucial to prepare going against 23-24 year-olds. Combined with the player's decent frame, we expect the player to really develop with continued work in the weight room. The talent showed a very good motor (highly coveted skill by college coaches) that remained mostly active on possessions and from what we saw, toughness from the player was shown some throughout camp. The player showed a great understanding and effort on the defensive side of the ball and should continue to focus on individual and team defensive concepts emphasized at camp. Jathen has division 1 potential with continued hard work and development both in the classroom and on the hardwood. Can play the 2; 3. AAU Team: .
