Erianna Gooden (Pro Skills National)
Gooden did a good job running the 1 at #WinterJam yet played both the 2 and 3 equally as well. She’s a big guard that can shoot or a small forward that can create and score on the inside nevertheless, she has plenty of offensive tools to choose from. She’s also heady, she doesn’t force anything and truly understands the game on both ends yet her rebounding and defending sum it up
Brynn Hargrove (NM Zias 2025)
Hargrove attacked the rim, handled the ball under pressure, and saw the floor yet she also created her shot n the perimeter and showed she could knock it down. I love watching players that understand how to get theirs in the flow and would rather get others involved yet I also love players that can just take over when they need to, she first both and that’s pretty neat
Jazman Bailey ( Team Jordan)
Bailey played a couple of years up, you’d never know, I didn’t and I’m a genius at this but her POISE just jumped out at me when she stepped on the court, not to mention her demeanor, aka swag because she will not back down, she’s vocal on the court and showed she could handle the double team while seeing the floor as well getting out of traps with good ball-handling. She also showed she could knock it down from outside, big things are coming from her
Jaidyn Gunter (Lady Jets Adidas 2)
Gunter is so explosive off the dribble in the half-court set yet her speed with the ball in the open court overshadows it somewhat because she’s under control and can make the tight passes yet she also understands how to run the 1 and showed she could control the tempo if needed but she plays the passing lane, she also defends well and on top of attacking the rim strongly and finishing, she has a nice outside shot as well
Iyana Golden (Drive Nation Oklahoma)
Golden sees the floor well plus she can handle the ball under pressure, that was evident as she was being manned up baseline to baseline and managed to get by defenders with ease to attack and finish or attack and dish yet I enjoyed watching her push the ball, under control and understands when to set it up. She also created her shot nicely and showed she could shoot it
A’Nyieza Crawford (OK Lady Lions)
Crawford did some impressive things at #WinterJam and showed me a few others this time around like she understands how to control the tempo, she doesn’t force plays nor shots, and her ability to get the defender to lean so she can attack is high schoolish but she also has a nice pull-up jumper, that’s from mid to long-range and she applied plenty of pressure on the defensive end
