Coach Tim Walker has high expectations for Evans' career at Malone. "Ben brings a great skill set for a player of his size," stated Walker. "He has tremendous upside as he continues to grow his game, but his combination of size and skill is very difficult to get at our level. He will fit great into the way we like to play."
