8/03/23It is the scoring with Jalil Bethea that you walk away talking about. He scores it in an efficient manner at each level of the floor. He has a good frame, nice length, positional size, and a projectable frame. Bethea is a good athlete and has some quick-twitch and straight-line burst when he is heading toward the rim. His jump shot form is good - albeit his release can be inconsistent at times - he knocks down shots off the catch (off movement) and off the bounce. His handle is at its best when he plays within two or three dribbles, would like to see him tighten things up beyond that. He can be a good defender, with the length and the athleticism, would like to see him continue to stay engaged on that end. He plays with a lot of confidence and has a smooth demeanor about him. Shot 40.8% from three and averaged 1.17 point per possession for Team Final during Nike's EYBL Circuit.
