Austen Colon has a knack for scoring the ball. He scores off the dribble but can also makes shots coming off screens and pin-downs @ColtonAusten @EliteNewnan

Highlight Tape:
Potential:
Austen Colton has the potential to be an high level impact player at the collegiate level. Only standing 5’9″, Colton has proven his height is not any kind of deterrent for what he is able to do on the court. His shot making ability translates to the next level, without question. Colton’s IQ and court vision also projections very well in terms of him being an impactful lead guard with a very high ceiling.
