Top Guards at SSG

This field was loaded with combo and point guards here are a few the shined last weekend! &nbsp; <b>[player_tooltip player_id="124109" first="Tanaja" last="Kennedy"] 5’4 PG 2023 Cardinal Newman </b> <img class="size-medium wp-image-332569 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/09/3-Tanaja-Kennedy-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" /> Even at 5’4 Tanaja is a relentless basketball player. She has an aggressive nature with her ball-handling as she attacks the rim. Strong fame at her size she can take the contact and finish as well. Only a Junior she has all the tools and it’s a lot more basketball to play! &nbsp; <b>Camri Hobbs 6’0 2026 CG 1 of 1 Prep</b> [caption id="attachment_376165" align="alignleft" width="186"]<img class="size-medium wp-image-376165" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/01/5521ED38-6DD5-4F4E-9AFB-3720C40D4D99-186x300.jpeg" alt="" width="186" height="300" /> Photo: David Kent, SSG[/caption] Arguably the best prospect with the most upside at SSG. Tall thick guard in the 8th grade that has a college frame already. She can play both positions at a high level. She still learning the nuances of the game. A starter in the 8th grade for a prep program it looks like she is on the right track! <b> Jasmine Brown 5’9 CG 2023 Example Academy </b> [caption id="attachment_376166" align="alignleft" width="200"]<img class="size-medium wp-image-376166" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/01/F4D77B6E-85BF-4303-946A-3B2AAC39949D-200x300.jpeg" alt="" width="200" height="300" /> Photo: David Kent, SSG[/caption] <span style="font-size: 1rem; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;">The tenacious guard has very good footwork and body control. She uses a settle stop and go hesitation to get to her midrange jumper. Deceptively quick she can get downhill in a hurry to get to the basket. Jasmine can pass off the dribble through traffic with good vision.</span> &nbsp; Hannah Miller 5’8 SG 2023 Valor Christian [caption id="attachment_376167" align="alignleft" width="169"]<img class="size-medium wp-image-376167" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/01/8C1E4F74-4A04-467B-8047-B9F4BE3C684D-169x300.jpeg" alt="" width="169" height="300" /> Photo: David Kent, SGG[/caption] The best pure shooter that I saw all weekend. Hannah fits perfectly in the school dribble drive offense. She moves without the ball very well. She recognition to understand to bait the defense to run her off the three-point line then attack the basket. Very versatile defender who can defend three positions. <b> [player_tooltip player_id="321683" first="Kennedy" last="Langham"] 5’9 SG 2023 Sparkman HS </b> <span style="font-size: 1rem; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;">Really good all-around player, a consistent three-point shooter. Has combo guard skills with her unselfish play. Kennedy lets the game come to her and she never sped up. A good defender and she can turn offense to defense in a hurry!</span> &nbsp; <b>[player_tooltip player_id="255913" first="Sierra" last="Johnson"] 5’9 CG 2022 TPLS Christian Academy</b> <img class="size-medium wp-image-376169 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/01/97D93AA6-C584-4ED3-B69A-4AE8525D72CA-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1642206028-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /> Strong guard that is no doubt a floor general for the loins! A versatile defender that can hit the open jumper at a high level. With her team up only one, she reeled off 8 straight points including two and 1 basket to secure the win and SGG player of the game! &nbsp; <b>Trinity Turner 5’7 PG 2024 Dr Phillips </b> <img class="size-medium wp-image-376171 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/01/ADEB2554-699F-42D1-895B-2A4CF7031557-crop-1285x844-1642206180-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /> Legit bucket! She received SGG honors in all three games! She a great 1 on 1 player when her team needed a bucket. Such a confident player only a sophomore she can definitely slide in the combo guard role if needed. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
