Summary
Hall displayed the ability to score in various ways whether it was as a roller in PnR, spotting up for C&S threes, shot creation off of post-ups, or attacking hard closeouts versus slower bigs and finishing at the basket. At his size and position, Hall has the ability to shoot the ball beyond the arc at a high level which can help him provide value to teams lacking in that department in their frontcourt. He also has an underrated ability as a screener on and away from the ball. In the low post, he displayed the ability to turn to both shoulders and finish with both hands, while drawing fouls consistently. Hall struggled throughout the season with his conditioning which primarily impacted his decision making and motor. At times, he has tunnel vision when attacking downhill, and he tends to play off-balance, while flopping for calls against stronger bigs. His slow lateral movement and poor footwork while defending the perimeter made him a liability when crossmatched against quicker guards. In isolation, he also struggled defending wings and guards. Against stronger, more skilled bigs he struggled defending the low post as they were able to constantly gain deep post position and finish either through or over the top of Hall.

Defensive Switch Metric:
Charting Sample Size - how many games were observed and charted
Total Active Possessions- total number of possessions where a player guarded the ball, forced a deflection or was involved in an off-ball action.
Total Switch Possessions- total number of possessions with a switch or cross-match where a wing player is guarding a lead ball handler or post player.
Total Shots Defended- number of shots where a player was the primary defender or directly contesting the opposing player’s shot.
Synergy Points Per Possession- points per possession for all defensive plays marked by Synergy.
Switch Points Per Possession- points per possession while a player was switched or cross-matched onto an opposing ball handler or big (post player).
Shot Contest Grade- rates a player’s shot contest on a scale of 1-4 under the following criteria
1. Wide Open- player was not within 8-10 feet of the scorer or no contest at all (1 Contest Point)
2. Open- hands down on a contest, within 8-10 feet of the shooter (2 Contest Points)
3. Light Contest- hands up on a contest and within 5-8 feet of a shooter (3 Contest Points)
4. Heavy Contest- close to the shooter and forcing an off-balance, fading, or double-clutch shot, or a light contest preceded by a non-fouling bump in the legal guarding position (4 Contest Points)
Switch Position Grade - rates a player’s positionality on a scale of 1-4 during the process of switching throughout a possession
Bad- out-of-control closeout, pinned in under the basket or fronting too far out from the basket on a post up, blow-by, or trailing heavily behind a play because of screen navigation, no ball pressure (1 SP Grade Point)
Neutral- on the side/slightly behind a player, flat-footed or with little ball pressure, not ready to move in a closeout situation, directly behind a post player on the block or on the side in a deny coverage (2 SP Grade Points)
Good- under control closeout and good on-ball defense, moderate ball pressure, close follow in trail position for a pick and roll or lock and trail scenario, fronting or keeping post player outside of the restricted area on a post-up (3 SP Grade Points)
Very Good- excellent closeout and on-ball defense, switching “into” a player with high ball pressure and intensity, strongly denying a post player in a post-up or pushing them out of the paint (4 SP Grade Points)
