Crowe Jr has been compared to Los Angeles Clippers’ shooting guard James Harden due to his similar style of play. “James harden with more athleticism and defensive potential”, a social media user commented.
Crowe shot 42.3% from the field, including 56.6% on two-pointers and 22.2% from the three-point range. He was efficient at the free-throw line, hitting 51 out of his 57 attempts (89.5%). However, he had 27 turnovers and 12 fouls. His all-around impact is obvious with an overall efficiency rating of 127.
Crowe is undecided about his college option yet, as he has multiple offers, although he is leaning towards Kentucky due to the relationship between assistant coach Jason Hart and Crowe Sr. (High School teammates). According to On3’s Joe Tipton, Kentucky is highly favored to land him.
