P3050228.JPG


Small forward
Jamestown, Ohio
Greeneview
AAU: C-Biz

Ht:6'6"
Wt:195 lbs
Class:2013 (High School)


Strengths:
He always gives a great effort on the floor, often out hustling his opponents to loose balls and rebounds. Offensively Evan has solid skills. He is a solid shooter with range to 17 feet. When guarded by perimeter players he can be effective posting up down low or at the mid post. Evan is a good rebounder. He does a solid job of boxing out and then retrieving the ball.

Weaknesses:
He can put the ball on the floor a little to create, depending on who he is matched up against. He is much more successful moving off the dribble versus post players. He is a decent defender where he shows nice effort, he just struggles at times in space versus superior quickness.

Bottom Line:
Evan is a skilled combo forward right now. He definitely projects as a small forward down the road. Overall a solid prospect.

There were several young players who really stepped up and became big-time prospects. SF/PF Evan Bradds (Jamestown, Ohio/Greeneview) and PF/C Zach Garber (Vanlue, Ohio/Vanlue) are a couple of small-school players with big-time talent. Bradds is a versatile, multi-skilled forward who plays with toughness and skill.

Evan Bradds, 6-6, SF, CBIZ 16′s, 2013

While he?s not a household name amongst recruiting circles, Bradds outplayed many guys listed ahead of him in both state and national rankings. With a nice J and deceptive athleticism going to the rim, the sophomore often catches defenders off guard because he doesn?t necessarily look the part of a big time basketball player. Already rocking a handful of mid-major offers, expect that list to grow once July rolls around and more coaches get a glimpse of this sleeper from rural Ohio.

Another Bradds
Jamestown Greeneview?s Evan Bradds has been good thus far in the early AAU period, but this past weekend he took his game to a new level. Bradds helped lead Team CBIZ to the Final Four of the prestigious Bill Hensley Memorial Run-n-Slam All-Star Classic in Fort Wayne, Indiana by his outstanding offensive play.

The name Bradds rings loud and proud in the Buckeye state thanks to former Ohio State basketball great Gary Bradds. It appears the apple didn?t fall from the tree as Evan is the grandson of Gary.

This Bradds may not be as well known as his famous grandfather, but the inner basketball circle and most of the MAC schools know what Bradds is all about. The rest of the state will soon find out.

This past weekend Bradds went from a little known star in Jamestown, Ohio with a popular grandpa to a kid who had national scouts taking serious notice.? He did so by straight ?killin it? in CBIZ?s fantastic run to the Final Four.

Bradds helped CBIZ avenge a King James Shooting Stars Classic loss to the Michigan Mustangs by scoring 20 points and followed with a 16-point showing against a sound Spiece Mo-Kan squad.

The junior-to-be turned up his game a couple more notches on Sunday in a stunning defeat of highly regarded Mac Irvin Fire out of Chicago, Illinois. The lengthy 6-foot-6 sophomore dropped a game-high 21 points to help CBIZ reach the Final Four.

In the semifinal contest, CBIZ wasn?t able to overcome a talented Meanstreets outfit out of Chicago, but Bradds showed well with a team-high 16.

Bradds has the ability to be a big time shot maker on the perimeter and shows the toughness to drive the lane and score in the paint. He lacks strength at this point, but he possesses a terrific long and lean basketball body. Though, don?t be fooled by his frame he is wiry strong and if you fall asleep on defense he will dunk on you with his above average bounce.

?Evan has shot the ball really well this spring behind the arc,? said CBIZ head coach Brian Bishop. ?He has great bounce, but needs to work on his ball handling. Right now, he has trouble getting by shorter, quicker guards. He also needs to get a little stronger.?

The Greeneview sophomore currently holds offers from Ohio University, Akron, Toledo, and Miami (OH), but look for that number to quickly change.

Bradds averaged 17 points per game this past season earning him Division 3 Honorable Mention All-Ohio.
