Evaluation: Extraordinarily talented combo guard that can scores the ball at a high level. A good shooter with deep range when left open Moore is best when attacking the basket. Solid handles, an unlimited arsenal of dribble moves, and elite court vision make him unstoppable towards the rim. A big and strong body with speed, a strong first step, and good leaping ability allow him to finish plays in transition or through contact in traffic. Where Willy is undervalued is his ability to pass the ball, he often sees plays several steps ahead of the other players on the court; while he can be careless with the ball he is able to produce some “wow” plays with his passing skills and creativity. Tough minded and competitive, Willy often shines on big stages but needs to learn how to keep that intensity intact at all times on the court.
Bottom Line: Consistency is the name of the game for Moore as he tries to make his production equal his vast potential. While several high majors have been involved his play has been a little too erratic and he looks like a mid major steal at the moment. Possesses all the talent to be a star combo guard at the college level.
Notes: Moore will be attending Oregon next season.
