He may have been one of the quickest players in attendance, not to mention a solid jump shot. White finished well at the rim and he could be even more effective if he learns to change speeds.

• #12: 5’7 ’18 Matthew White (Danville, VA) Starting things off, we look at a player that knew his role and made every effort to help his team on both sides of the ball, Matthew White. He’s a true point guard that is always looking to create for others, whether in the half-court or transition. White is unselfish and frequently passed up good shots for great ones, a valuable skill that shows his overall feel for the game. He showed the makings of a strong pull-up jumper, but still needs to work on his overall shot consistency from outside the paint. Defensively, White did a solid job of controlling his matchup and made a concerted effort to be the first man back in transition. Next in his development process is continuing to polish his scoring ability, as it will make him a multi-threat player on the offensive end. Coach Robinson on White: “Matthew has a great attitude and sees the floor well, however, he needs to get a better understanding of the game to properly utilize his passing ability. He can handle the ball and is a great passer, but needs to keep better security of the ball when setting the offense.” White has upside and ample time to reach his ceiling; it’ll be interesting to see how much he expands his game going forward.
