"Noah is a hair under 6-foot-5 and around 200 pounds, he grew from around 6-foot-2 and a half to near 6-foot-5 in the last year or so. He is one of the top stand still shooters on the West Coast and also has a point guard background and plays club ball on and off the ball. Noah can create off the dribble but he'll most likely be a catch and shoot or 1-2 dribble pull-up type of college player. He has good length and court vision and he can find open teammates plus use his length well in the passing lanes for defense.
The crazy thing is he has never started a game on varsity yet! Honestly just bad luck. When he finally was going to get his chance (last year)--he got injured. He played a little at the end of the year but was slowly getting back and wasn't truly a factor.
When April rolled around in the Live Period--he came out firing! He hit 15 3's in one weekend and all of a sudden was the talk of the town. Noah continued on that tear of shooting in high school June ball and the July live periods.
He has the luxury of playing off of point guard stand out Saben Lee--a Vandy commit. Lee gave him the open looks he needed and he cashed it in with some monster games vs higher tier talent."
What's fascinating is that Baumann had an incredible game against Jake Wojcik's AAU team down in an April tournament in Anaheim, even with Lee injured and not playing. That was the moment the Spartans as well as a number of other teams 'discovered' him.
