Personal Statement

I have a really good work ethic, when it comes to basketball and academics. I’m very determined and would love to have the opportunity to play basketball at any college level to help pay for school. My junior year I was a top 5 scorer in the state of Hawaii for D2.

Heres what my coach has to say about me: "Kaimana is an exemplary student and leader of the team. Was top 5 in division 2 for scoring in the state. Also grabbed more than 10 rebounds a game while having to bring the ball upcourt, create plays for teammates and become a defensive anchor. His effort this year is immeasurable."

Camp Evaluation on Me: Kaimana Baker, of Kihei (HI) St. Anthony HS, is a 6'1 170lb 2020 prospect from our Spring 2019 Orlando camp. College coaches on camp staff identified Kaimana as having college potential. Kaimana has a great wingspan that gives the player the potential to be a lock down defender and can be even more effective with active hands/feet. Additionally, the prospect appears to have very good size for position when used properly remains advantageous on both sides of the ball. The talented passer, distributes the ball well seeing the floor and anticipating when and where teammates will be open creating easy buckets. In terms of ball handling, the prospect showed a great handle and is on the way to being a primary ball handler. Basketball IQ was one of the player's greatest strengths routinely making the right play at the right time. There was a great emphasis on making the right play, which will be a big advantage in recruiting and separating from others. A big part of IQ is shot selection. Kaimana does a great job of understanding when there is enough time and space to shoot the ball and will continue to develop this knowledge by watching how this is done at various college levels. Making the extra pass and taking only open in-rhythm shots proved to be a reliable asset for the prospect. The prospect was able to consistently knock down shots during camp showing to be a reliable asset. Shooting will continue to develop with form shooting and made game speed repetitions. We recommend making at least 500 game speed shots a day off the screen(curl/fades), off the bounce, spot shooting, etc. The talent impressed finishing around the rim through contact and in traffic. With continued work finishing through traffic with either hand, adding even more finishing moves, the player will continue to be a grave threat around the basket. The talented player has good athletic ability for size and age. ScoutsFocus would like to see continued development in speed/agility and vertical development. Jump rope drills are great full body conditioning drill we highly recommend if not ready for a rigorous weight-training program. The prospect is very strong for their age. The college game is an entirely different beast so continued strength development is crucial to prepare going against 23-24 year-olds. Combined with the player's decent frame, we expect the player to really develop with continued work in the weight room. The talent showed a very good motor (highly coveted skill by college coaches) that remained mostly active on possessions and from what we saw, the player showed physical and mental toughness throughout camp. The player showed a great understanding and effort on the defensive side of the ball and should continue to focus on individual and team defensive concepts emphasized at camp. Kaimana has potential with continued hard work and development both in the classroom and on the hardwood. Can play the 1; 4. AAU Team: Sparks.

Through continued emphasis on making the right play through watching/learning the game, it can be a big advantage in recruiting. A big part of IQ is shot selection.
