Continue ReadingI stress over and over the importance of playing in the right showcases and tournaments in front of knowledgeable people who what a proven track record of knowing what they’re talking about and the first person who always comes to my mind, is myself because when I COVER an event as I did at PassThaBall’s #Super60, everyone will get looked at and this totally different from events where I evaluate players, based on my compensation, but I wanted to just name some players that if I formed a squad just from this event to compete on the circuit, these are my 12 I’d roll with some of the many future PGH Texas Watch List players I saw compete
2024
Rian Forestier Rian Forestier 5'11" | SG Brandeis | 2024 State TX -she sort of reminds me of a young Carleigh Wenzel Carleigh Wenzel 5'11" | SG O'Connor | 2022 State #51 Nation TX when I first caught her because that jump shot is picture perfect and consistent and will only get better
Kaelyn Hamilton Kaelyn Hamilton 5'10" | SF McKinney North | 2024 State TX -I wrote BEAST and BATTLES in caps so it’s embedded in my head as she goes for everything on the boards and floor, plus she attacks STRONGLY, huge upside
Taler Thornton Taler Thornton 5'9" | CG Bryan | 2024 State TX -creates her shot in traffic, battles on the boards and just for fun she throws pinpoint passes past defenders, on the money and watching her go C2C makes her a “highlight waiting to happen”
Grace Riggs Grace Riggs 5'9" | SG Harker Heights | 2024 State TX -I love seeing the hesitation and I really love seeing reverse lay-ups but the combination she showed has me speechless other than she has a nice jumper
2025
LA Sneed-one of the top 2025 players in the UNIVERSE, could play and start from many area high schools right and it would be easier to name what she can’t do and other than dunk, I can’t think of anything.
Milania Jordan -explosive scorer, the first step can be devastating and her desire to play defense is second to none. She’s long and athletic, plays passing lane and huge upside
Leajah Maddox-her timing caught my eyes immediately as she blocks and (or) alters but she can jump out of the gym and rebounds on both ends. She also can attack strongly from the wing
2026
Amari Byles- #sizedontmatter when you can play, she creates under pressure and has a nice jumper already but she mixes it up attacking the rim from wherever. Guess what else? She plays the passing lane
Mazira Palmer-creates her shot, rebounds and takes it the length of the court to finish or she just attacks from every spot on the court with ease
Rieyan Desouze-shows me something new every time I catch her and that crossover was one of the best yet she sees the floor, makes the right passes and can score
Delaney Arredondo-the abundance of small PG’s that will play somewhere at the next level sort of overwhelmed and her flair and skill set always has and will. A special player with a whole lot of tools
Morgan Davis-that fire has always burnt as she is a true leader that understands the game at a young age. She handles the ball, sees the floor and scores off the dribble or outside
