• Explosive guard who makes the rim pop in transition; terrific one-foot jumper

• Questionable decision making at the point guard spot; not a calm or poised point guard; can play out of control at times; takes risks 
• Poor outside shooter; must improve stroke from outside the paint

Latrell Jossell / 5’11″ / Keller Central / Level: Low Major

Strengths: 

• Lead guard with nice handles who can stroke it from deep
• Heats up from the perimeter; microwave scorer
• Gets into the lane and hits floaters

Weaknesses:

• A shooting guard in a point guards body; known for scoring but always in the position to run the offense
• Needs to improve as a facilitator; does not have the size to play the two at the next level
