Derkack Scouting Report
Rivals National Recruiting Analyst Jamie Shaw evaluated Derkack this summer:
“Derkack is a jack-of-all-trades type of wing,” Shaw wrote. “Someone who puts their fingerprints on many aspects of an outcome. For starters, the 6-foot-6 wing plays hard and has a natural feel. He is comfortable attacking from the wing, getting teammates involved, and also defending multiple positions. He will need to work on his shooting consistency, but he limits turnovers and puts the ball in advantageous situations.”
