2026 Top Performers #SouthwestShowcase pt 1

Just playing with the Top 2026 players for the watchlist I’ll be dropping and remember, if I haven’t seen the player, no need in sending me stats because numbers actually lie, my eyesight, not yet, so I’ll drop the Top 20 in a few months to try and give those who think they’re deserving to put themselves in front of me, I already have 10 of the 20 that I have been watching 3 or more years and 3 of those 10 made the trip from the Dallas area to help put on a show <strong>Jaycii Abii</strong> The progression from when I saw her to now is scary, she's stronger, more athletic, and showing she can play 3 or 4 positions effectively yet she's doing things instinctively on the offensive end and her ability to find ways to put the ball in the basket is definitely going to make her an instant hit in high school yet she's a NATIONAL kid, not only a #D1Lock but BCS <strong>Jaidyn Gunter</strong> Also continues to elevate her game, that first step is very impressive, so is her body control and as she defies gravity on her finishes but her ability to create her shot under pressure and nail the mid to long-range, with a hand in her face is going to create some problems for defenders and on the flip, she applies heat defensively <strong>Simone Richmond</strong> Smooth as silk, can score in the flow or just explode and score in droves yet I really like how she understands how and when to set the defender up because if you guard too tightly, she can go by you and finish after contact yet you give her room and she can drop the outside shot, wait, in transition that "stop and pop" is nice as well <strong>Mya Alston (OK)</strong> Long and athletic will always be the base and no matter what setting or PLATFORM I catch her in, she finds ways to stand out, this time her defense, yeah she plays the passing lane and can go coast to coast to score after rebounding but her court vision coupled with ballhandling in the open court gave a different view of what she screen names <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="392661" first="Endia" last="Stigall"]</strong> An athletic guard that just goes hard on both ends, but watching her create her shot is very nice, the pull-up is consistent, the finishes after contact, yes that first step will create issues but peep this, she showed me the floata, smh, and if that wasn't enough, her passing off the dribble was effective yet her on the ball defense ain't bad either <strong>Rosanelly Pastrano</strong> The game has and will always start at the 1 and when you're heady, under control, and understand how to control the tempo, you're ahead of the  game yet she also threads the needle like a master seamstress, meaning she blisters the ball to teammates on the money for assists but she also can score off the dribble and the jumper <strong>Britteny Anderson</strong> Athletic and SWB, speed with the ball, yet factor in she dribbles with her head up and sees the floor, makes the right passes and showed she could score off the dribble, as well as using the jumper yet I knew all of that but her range is getting deeper, her finishing after contact is even stronger than what it was and her upside is really good <strong>Jhanae Nickerson </strong> Long and athletic is still the base, that EURO in transition definitely got my adrenaline going but she attacks the basket so strongly and finishes the same way strong, but her court vision is definitely taken a jump, not to leave out her jumper is nice as she elevates over the defender to get it off, on the other end her timing is really nice as she blocks, deflects and (or) alters shots &nbsp;
