Assistant coaches from Michigan and Louisville joined Tennessee courtside to watch 2024 four-star Isaiah Evans last night. The star wing at Huntersville (NC) North Mecklenburg has been a hot commodity since the Fall live recruiting period started.

Evans is the 2024 On3 Consensus No. 55 overall player in his class. The wing averaged 9.9 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 1.4 steals per game this summer for the TSF program on Nike’s 16u EYBL Circuit.

Evans has already added offers from Florida State, St. John’s, West Virginia, and Pittsburgh during the Fall live evaluation period. He does not currently claim offers from Louisville and Michigan, so watch for that in the coming weeks.

Evans scouting report

Isaiah Evans is a lengthy prospect, all arms, and legs right now. He moves fluidly and is comfortable handling the ball in the open floor. He is good in the passing lanes; his length and anticipation help deflections. Evans is very thin and will need to continue adding weight. The jump shot comes across his face and is inconsistent. A good off-ball cutter seems to have a high basketball IQ. Inconsistent in creating in the half-court, re-tooling the jump shot will also help here. He has a lot of tools and a natural basketball IQ; he also competes and does a lot of the little things.
