Scout Report

When you're running with a future Maryland big man and a Siena-bound floor general, you better bring something special to the table.

Background

David Flores John runs in elite circles for good reason, suiting up alongside highly-ranked teammates who've already secured Division I commitments. The 2027 wing has gotten valuable experience competing at a high level, learning what it takes to play with and against top-tier talent. That exposure has accelerated his development in ways that show up on film.

Playing Style

At 6-6, John has the frame to create problems on both ends of the floor. He moves well for his size and shows good court awareness when working off his more heralded teammates. His length allows him to affect shots defensively and grab rebounds in traffic. The shooting stroke needs refinement, but the mechanics suggest upside with proper coaching. What catches your eye is his basketball IQ - he makes the right read more often than not and doesn't force situations. Still developing his handle and needs to get stronger, but the foundation is solid for a 2027 prospect.

Recruitment

No reported offers yet, but that's not uncommon for a player in the 2027 class still finding his footing. The fact that he's holding his own with committed Division I players tells you college coaches will start paying attention. His development trajectory over the next year will determine whether he lands at the mid-major or high-major level.
