Overview

Kevin is a five-tool player (borrowing from the baseball lexicon) that came on toward the end of the season as an important player off the bench for the Chargers during their run to the Class B title game. He can do a little bit of everything: handle the ball, pass, shoot, run, and defend. His versatility allows him to play four positions, and his strength and quickness allows him to guard those same positions as well. He is markedly more athletic than last year, which will only help his game.

 

High School
Moved up to varsity during sophomore year. Played significant minutes as a junior on a team that won its district and region before falling in the state B championship final.
