We&#8217;re on our third season. At a superficial level you may not be impressed by Beekman&#8217;s stats, but when you dig into his game and see how he plays, it&#8217;s easy to see why he&#8217;s his future NBA prospect. you can see.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\"\/>\n<p>The Cavalier is simply one of the best in the country because it is associated with creating for others without turning the ball over. is even more impressive.<\/p>\n<p>The Scotlandville High School product can attack defenses in multiple ways to attract defenders and create an open look.  NBA teams will love the amount of ball screens he&#8217;s played for Virginia and his ability to create from them for his teammates.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<p>Beekman isn&#8217;t the most explosive athlete, but his combination of functional handles and good start-stop abruptness can create an advantage on his own.<\/p>\n<p>When playing off the ball, it&#8217;s something he can do and is asked to do at the next level.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\"\/>\n<p>He&#8217;s a solid defender and a quality 3-point shooter. Along with Beekman&#8217;s facilitation, it&#8217;s rare to see a point guard with his 3-and-D impact.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"\/>\n<p>Turn on Virginia&#8217;s game and you can watch him draw the opposing team&#8217;s best perimeter offensive player allocation.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-3\"\/>\n<p>He has an amazing ability to simply mirror the movements of attacking players, allowing him to stay ahead. There are very few situations where Beekman can be beaten, but Beekman is incredibly active and accurately swiping the ball, generating steals or forcing turnovers.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-3\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-3\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\"\/>\n<p>Beekman&#8217;s contribution on defense goes beyond his ball acumen. He has a high basketball IQ, which he uses to run rotations without being overly helpful, predicting passes and gaining steals and deflections, contributing significantly to the team&#8217;s overall defense. can do.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-4\"\/>\n<p>His ultimate value lies in passing and defense, but shooting is a key skill for nearly every prospect. Although the amount is small, the junior guard has shown great improvement year after year while in Virginia. His efficiency continues to rise as his jumper improves, which is very promising.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-4\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-4\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-3\"\/>\n<h2 id=\"highlights\">highlight<\/h2>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-5\"\/>\n<h2 id=\"draft-projection\">draft projection<\/h2>\n<p>2nd round pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"mm-horizontal-rule mm-horizontal-rule--hr1\"\/>\n<h2 id=\"2023-big-board\">2023 big board<\/h2>\n<p>Want to learn more about other potential prospects in the 2023 NBA Draft?
