The spring and summer travel ball season is about to begin in high school basketball, and one young player to watch is junior to be Alex Copeland of Studio City Harvard-Westlake.

He was a second-team all-Mission League selection. He averaged 8.4 points and had high games of 23 points against Alemany and 19 against Loyola. He’s also very quick, which he needs to be just to keep pace in his family, because his twin sister, Shea, is a track star at Harvard-Westlake.

If he can improve the consistency of his outside shot, he can be a player to watch.
