  • Final Evaluation Reuben Woods, of Stone Mountain (GA) Redan HS, is a 6'2 175lb 2020 prospect from our Fall 2018 ATL camp. College coaches on camp staff identified Reuben as having scholarship potential. Reuben 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 decent job of distributing the basketball. With continued emphasis of seeing the whole floor at all times and basic passing practice drills; that skill will continue to improve. In terms of ball handling, the prospect showed promise and has the potential to develop strong handle with continued work through daily ball handling work. 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. Reuben In terms of shot selectiondoes a decent job of knowing 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 solid 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 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 showed a solid level of strength. 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 solid frame that should to continue to build year around, the player will be physically ready to play at the next level. 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 occasionally at camp. The player showed reliability on the defensive side of the ball and should continue to focus on individual and team defensive concepts emphasized at camp. Reuben has scholarship potential with continued hard work and development both in the classroom and on the hardwood. Can play the 1; 2. AAU Team: Ballin Blazers.
