Continue ReadingGaQuincy McKinstry is one of the most electric athletes in the state. Thats right, I said the state. This kid is already widely recognized as the state’s best 2021 football prospect, but he is not too shabby on the hardwood either. Prep Hoops has him ranked as a 3 star prospect.
Strengths
Elite level athlete. Plays above the rim. Strong frame. Elite straight line speed. Finishes through contact. Knows how to use his body. Crafty handle. Has the ability to knock down midrange and 3 point jumpers. Very good on ball defender. Very good court awareness. Quick hands and feet. Competitive and confident.
Weaknesses
Shot selection can improve. Listed at 6’1, but probably closer to 5’11. Gets caught gambling and going after flashy plays. Has a tendency to over dribble in iso situations. Room to improve 3 point accuracy.
Overview
Kool-Aid is a special athlete. This kid is entertaining to watch and can do a lot on the hardwood. With his athleticism, McKinstry makes tough plays look easy. Let’s be honest though, it will be tough for this kid to pass on football with the scholarships he has already received. It may take a school giving Kool-Aid the opportunity to play both sports to land him.
