Mandaquit Scouting Report

“JJ Mandaquit is a high IQ point guard. He is very cerebral, and he reads the game at an advanced level. The ball is on a strong, and he manipulates angles very well, creating both space and opportunity. While he is an average athlete, he gives good effort on the defensive end. Mandaquit has an array of paint finishes, with floaters and runners. Size may be a question; he plays with a great pace and attacks with great balance. Originally from Hawaii, he is young for his grade, and will not turn 18 until May of his senior year.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
