Player Spotlight: 2009 Evan Gilliland

2009 G 5'11" Evan Gilliland is one of the better unsigned seniors in the Cen Tex/San Antonio area. He is a superior 3 point shooter, can get to the rack, and even more importantly can pull up for the mid range shot while maintaining good body control. In short he is a natural scorer who can fill it up. At 5'11" he will have to make a conscious transition to being a point. He handles the ball well enough and has good vision. Will need to work on defensive footspeed to handle smaller guards at the D-1 level. Nothing that won't be fixed with continued hard work though.
