9. [player_tooltip player_id="445345" first="Emmah" last="McAmis"] Central HS   <figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/08/3AF4B1CA-0C5A-4F2C-8964-21349A44618D.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-471767" width="316" height="421"/><figcaption>WV Thunder UAA</figcaption></figure>   Hard nose basketball player with great athleticism. Emmah can turn defense into offense in a blink of an eye and can score in traffic at a high level. Plays at a fast pace into transition fast breaks. Seem to always make the right pass and is never sped up when the ball is in her hands and has a consistent three-point jump shot. A great defender and is not afraid to put her body in harm's way to pick up a charge. Good court vision and has a good show-and-go move from the three-point line.         26. [player_tooltip player_id="443607" first="Dynasti" last="Pierce"] 5'11 SF Smithfield HS   <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/08/564024F4-6C2F-4AF0-8776-65DC616838CA.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-471891"/></figure>   Great size and with a good wing span, Dynasti is a under the radar player that has a lot of raw ability that is all starting to come together! With her size she can slash and has a good drive dribble to the basket while wrapping up the basketball to protect the ball for layups. She is a legit threat from the three-point line I believe with more reps in time in the gym her three-point shot will and can get better. She has the potential to become an elite defender long arms make it easy for her to pick the pocket of her defenders. Dynasti upside is through the roof needs to build out her frame that will come from time in the weight room!       [player_tooltip player_id="468746" first="Thori" last="Woodley"] 6'0 PF Hermitage HS     Strong powerful throwback low post player that knows how to use her size in the paint. A physical defensive player that uses her frame to her advantage. In the age of positionless basketball, Thori who is still a young player and won't turn 15 until September. She will have to develop a midrange game or grow her game to become a stretch four. Right now she has all the defensive tools to be very successful, she just needs time to work on specific parts of her game to become more complete.     35 [player_tooltip player_id="445364" first="Payton" last="Dunbar"] 5'10 CG Jefferson Christian   <figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/08/94E32196-3604-44B9-9381-673A658B6540.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-471775" width="283" height="422"/></figure>   Listed as a combo guard but has the potential to become a full-time point guard. Long lanky player that looks to attack the rim! Has good court vision and with her size she can see over defenders. A smart defender that gets in the passing lanes to create turnovers, a capable shot blocker on the perimeter and inside the paint. Has a good set shot from three-point land with the combination of athletic potential interesting to see what this year of development will do for Payton!   [player_tooltip player_id="468696" first="Emma" last="Ritter"] 6'0 PF Pulaski HS   <figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/08/B9A5895F-0631-44A0-9119-ABC1A93D5363.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-471895" width="310" height="310"/><figcaption>Pulaski HS</figcaption></figure>   Emma is not a typical power forward she will definitely fall under the hybrid stretch four category. Runs the floor very well and does a good job catching passes in the lane against defenders. She has a knack of knowing where she's at around the basket for fast quick layups to avoid block shots. With her size and length, it looks like she can possibly make a transition to the small forward position as she has shown to have some range on her jump shot. Smart defender that can guard multiple front-court positions. Has great anticipation and timing when tracking down and getting block shots.
