Continue ReadingWe continue our Top 5 series with the Top 5 Shooting Guards in the class of 2020. These girls are shooting guards in the purest form of the position. In other words, they are basket getters! While some on the list can also play make, their main contributions come from scoring.
#1 Andrea Jovicevic Andrea Jovicevic 5'10" | CG Bella Vista | 2020 State AZ 5’10 2020 SG Bella Vista
Andrea is the ultimate scoring machine. She is very high energy and never stops moving in attempt to get open for the ball. She is really good off of cuts and just has an overall high IQ. This just adds to her scoring ability. One on one, she can also get a bucket at will due to her overall skill, speed, and size. Unstoppable.
#2 Victoria Mason Victoria Mason 5'7" | CG Chandler | 2020 State AZ 5’7 2020 SG Chandler
Mason is quite the scorer as well! She can really get hot in a hurry and run up the scoreboard for her team. She can shoot it from deep with great range and efficiency. She also is super quick and can get to the basket pretty easily and finishes well.
#3 Victoria Davis Victoria Davis 5'5" | CG Hamilton | 2020 State AZ 5’5 2020 SG Hamilton
Went back and forth on whether or not to include Davis on the PG’s list or the SG’s list. In the end, I decided to go with the shooting guard spot because I think that’s when she’s at her best. When Davis is solely focused on scoring, she can really turn it up! Great at finishing around the basket and had a great shot as well. Love her pull up mid-range game!
#4 Amayah Kirkman Amayah Kirkman 5'8" | CG Saguaro | 2020 State AZ 5’8 2020 SG Saguaro
Kirkman is a super smooth shooting guard who can play make as well as any guard in state. However, I think she’ll play more of the 2 guard at the college level. She is super strong and shifty, making it easy for her to get to the basket. She also has a silky smooth jumper and can knock it down from mid-range or the deep 3.
#5 Izzy Ortwine 6’0 2020 SG Northwest Christian
Ortwine has a ton of potential and I could see her really being a dominant force at the next level. She has great size, standing at 6’0. She is very long and is a really great shooter. The mix of her height, length, and shooting ability could really set her up for a ton of success at the college level. She is exactly what you want from your shooting guard position.
