These are some of the best shooters that I saw from the 2025 class. Look for them to have some stellar play throughout the next few circuit months.
Mattie Dollar 2025 Anson High School, TX (Texas Platinum 2024 Bruce)
Mattie is a sharp shooting guard who has the ability to catch fire at any given point in time on the game. She calmly knocks down shots from all around the arc, even with a defender coming out to contest. I was very impressed with her maturity with the ball in her hands, no player coming at her really affected her as she rose up to shoot. She always stays ready and has a very quick release to punish the defense for late coverage on the perimeter. I was very impressed with the speed in which she was able to consistently get her shot off coming off of swing passes or kickout drives.
She operated really well on the corners and has all the tools to become an effective guard at the next level. I loved watching her pass the ball as well, she made timely passes to cutting and slipping teammates and her passes always seemed to be put in the right spot. Where she truly makes her mark however is her confidence in getting her shot off with a live dribble. I was very impressed with her shot making ability off the dribble at all three levels of the floor.
Tristin Pierce Tristin Pierce 5'3" | PG MacArthur | 2025 State OK 2025 5’4 Lawtin MacArthur High School, OK (Oklahoma Aces 2024 Vick)
Tristin is an aware point guard guard who can operate out of all three levels of the floor. She can calmly initiate offense within the half court and find her teammates by making accurate reads out to the corners. I was very impressed by her unselfishness and ability to make the right decisions within the flow of her team’s offense. She showed an ability to calmly knock down shots on the perimeter, especially off the catch.
On the defensive end of the floor she has active hands that have a knack of poking the ball free. I was impressed with how well she moved her feet and forced her opponents to the sideline. She was great at using her teammates and the sideline as help defenders to force her opponents into tough spots. She rebounded the ball at a high level for a guard as well, and always kept her head up to make the right full court pass or finish on the other end for a coast to coast look.
Amari Hamer 2025 5’6 Broken Arrow High School, OK (Rebel Elite 2025)
Amari is a highly skilled guard with a real ability to control the tempo of the offense. Whether she was creating looks by firing high level one handed passes up the court or creating looks within the half court for her teammates, she always had her head up to make the right read within the flow of the offense. I was very impressed with her ability to score off the dribble as well, she had one play where she snatched a long rebound and got a shot off in the midrange to beat the first half buzzer. She consistently got to her spots within the midrange and rose up over her defenders.
I would like to see her work on her ability to attack defenses in the paint and finishing with more consistency at the rim. On the defensive end of the floor, she played in tense defense and had some jaw dropping defensive plays. I was blown away by the amount of chase down blocks she had in the paint, if her teammate was ever beat off the dribble she screamed in from the weak side to protect the rim.
Sariah Fuentes 2025 5’6 Klein Cain High School, TX (Houston Lady Nets 2024)
Sariah is a high level guard who thrives at all three levels of the floor. She is a good shooter from beyond the arc, especially off the dribble. It was fun watching her manipulate the defense with her eyes while calmly hitting shots in the midrange and from the three point line. She played well and got her teammates involved well, displaying some high level passes in the half court to find cutting teammates. I was very impressed for her ability to play big for her size and position on both ends of the floor. She is able to play with her back to the basket, and score in the paint from her work on the offensive glass. I was very impressed with her work on the defensive end of the floor, she had multiple chase down blocks on the fast break. She is a good help defender on the weak side, who knows the right time to come over to cut off her opponents options.
