Columbia Central)</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147747" first="Brooke" last="Daniels"] (2022, G, L’Anse Creuse North)</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="178886" first="Deyonce" last="Thompson"] (2022, G, East Kentwood)</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147742" first="Alaila" last="Walker"] (2022, G, Kalamazoo Central)</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147717" first="Madisen" last="Wardell"] (2022, F, Detroit Edison)</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147713" first="Ruby" last="Whitehorn"] (2022, G, Detroit Edison)</strong> <h2>PLAYERS TO WATCH</h2> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147713" first="Ruby" last="Whitehorn"]</strong> Did you expect to not see her here? She’s regarded as a top notch prospect nationwide, but in all honesty, I think she’s still underrated. DEPSA grads keep shining at the next level and I’m willing to bet that Whitehorn will as well. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147769" first="Tadessa" last="Brown"]</strong> Brown was recently one of the biggest risers in the Prep Girls Hoops Michigan class of 2022 rankings. She’s really putting it all together in the paint and is primed for a big July and a huge senior season. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147725" first="Lexus" last="Bargesser"] </strong> Bargesser has captured the attention of the state of Michigan after her memorable performance and speech to her team in the state championship game. But don’t forget, she was one of the top grassroots performers in the state last year. Bargesser plays big in big moments, so this might be the week for her.
