Silver Fox: Day Two
January 16, 2011 by Barry Hayes
Even though he was recognized on Day 1 as well, Kevin is just a joy to watch as a basketball fan. With all the departures of Ontario prospects from their high schools, this is a time to savour the elite that chose to stay. In the Joe Raso Final, he used his excellent vision to find open teammates with better scoring opportunities. Despite starters Brayden Gohn (6’5” F, Gr.12) and Zac Marcelline (5’10” G, Gr.12) hobbled with injuries accumulated in their earlier battles, the duo helped keep Cardinal Newman from sagging their defensive spotlight on Kevin. Brayden went for 15 in the first half, while Zac netted 13 in the second half (including 3 treys).
Silver Fox: Day One
January 15, 2011 by Barry Hayes
What could he do in an encore from last weekend’s 48-point MVP performance? Up against another opponent with strong defensive guards (Oakwood), Kevin pushed the ball with great speed, finding ways to elude the constant double-teaming he was drawn into, and finished with a tournament-high 39 points (according to the stats I took). He also dropped 21 three-pointers in the one minute 3-point Challenge at halftime, giving him a second straight award, while setting a tournament-record 43 over two rounds.
St.Michael's Tournament: Day One
January 7, 2011 by Nolan Shulman
We labeled Kevin the top dog in this tournament in our preview, and his day one performance certainly set the tone. If layup lines were an accurate indicator of outcomes, Dr.Denison would never win a game. They certainly don't look like a team capable of hanging with the athletes of Carr. But with Kevin in your lineup, you've always got a punchers chance. It's interesting to watch him in his high school setting because he has to take on the role of scorer for the Huskies. Despite Carr knowing this, Kevin scored 28 points and had a 3rd quarter outburst which was the difference in the game. He got in the gaps, made tough shots in the paint, and proved he could create scoring opportunities for himself. He played a different style then we're used to, but it was refreshing to see and fun to watch. Denison may not have athletes, but their team takes on the identity of their leader. They move the basketball, play unselfish, and value each possession.
Adidas Super 64
July 27, 2010 by Nolan Shulman
In front of head coaches from Michigan, Gonzaga, Cincy, Colorado, and more, Kevin proved he would be a dynamite fit for any team who likes to bring their point guard off ball screens. He made shots from mid range, from three, off the dribble, and with his feet set. He also proved he could play at any tempo, doing a terrific job in transition and in the half court. Not only is he capable of playing at any speed but he also has a terrific feel for when to push and when to slow it down. He plays hard, is a leader of men, and would be a terrific get for any school lucky enough to have Kevin play for them.
All-Canada Classic
June 15, 2010 by Nolan Shulman
Kevin is a floor general who doesn't neccesarily excel in helter skelter offensive all-star games. He's at his best running a system, directing traffic, and playing mistake free basketball. That said, Kevin showed his excellent vision, didn't force the action, and showed he's a terrific shooter. The one area Kevin struggled was keeping Myck Kabongo in front of him. Myck is so quick and has such an explosive first step that it exposed Kevin's biggest weakness; his lateral foot speed. Having to guard electric guards who change speeds like Myck is something Kevin will have to improve on as a high major prospect if he hopes to be successful defensively at the next level.
Battle of the Boards
May 3, 2010 by Tariq Sbiet
I would have to say that Pangos was the top prospect in this event and arguably in the country. This floor general makes everything look very easy and natural, frequently being compared to Steve Nash. It was the first time in over a year that I got to witness KP in action. He has put on muscle mass and has good size. Pangos has a great understanding of the game and analyzes the floor extremely well. He picks his spots and is patient, rarely turning over the ball which is very impressive considering the fact that he looks to push it every chance he gets. I can’t imagine any of his teammates being dissatisfied when Kevin is on the floor as he gets the ball to where it needs to be, moving very vast with the rock in his hands and basically coasting by the defense time after time. Pangos has also improved defensively showing that he can pick up his man full court on several possessions. I can go on and on about KP but I must save some room for the rest of these prospects. Almost forgot to mention, Pangos dished out at least 10 assists in this game.
