Eddie Oakes '20 Recruiting Profile

I've always dreamed of playing in college and creating an opportunity for myself to be recognized and to show the potential I know I have. I am still young so I have yet to decide my proffesion but I will make sure I decide by 2020. I am only 5"8 and maybe still growing but do not want to jinx it, but for now I am willing to put in any kind of work there is to be done to become the player I want to be. I am a point guard and maintain a diverse range of skills in different areas of the game because of my work ethic. I can shoot the ball very aggressively from 3 point range, drive the lane with my ability to handle the ball with ease, I can pass the ball on the dime, there is no sloppiness in my game what so ever and that is why I am confident enough to post this and hopefully be recognized. I can also run the floor on fast breaks with my quick decision making and hustle. My defense is acceptable, I can lock defenders with my quickness and contest on taller defenders despite my current height. My rebound game is not that bad but also not good either do to my height but I have an acceptable vertical which allows me to jump where I need to jump to get a rebound. My basketball iq is fairly good and can be improved, but I always find time to study the game and learn new aspects about the game so really it comes with time. I can run pick and rolls good, I can get by a defender if I need to with excessive moves. I never show any kind of unsportmanship to the other team nor the fans and also never my teammates. I am very adaptable and a fast learner and have a tremendous amount of work ethic. I am committed to the fullest and if I am contacted I am certainly responding. My lay ups are very unpredictable because of my continuous work habits of practicing lay ups in different angles, spots on the backboard, foot work, and athleticism. I try to effect the game in any possible way I can and I am still a student of the game and I am still learning in the process. I want to be the best I can be and I am willing to put any kind of work in to be what I want to become. I will soon post videos etc.. in the future of 11th and 12th grade as I just finished my sophomore year.
