She is a really skilled crafty Guard. She is a three level scorer and a playmaker. She is athletic, with a quick move off the crossover dribble. She is a tough defender and in the NEPSAC quarterfinals did well guarding a 6'4 center. A big time shot maker, with a strong upside. Payton is a three sport athlete, in the day and age where three sport athletes are less common.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["393246"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Cameron really started to breakout last high school and AAU season. She is a shooter with long range. She had many games last season with multiple three pointers made. She is  good at knowing when to roll off screens, when to reject, pop out or slip the screens. She has a quick first step, and can dribble and finish with both hands.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["374000"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Patel is a shooter, with a quick release. She can get her shot off in multiple ways.  She is good at creating separation from the defense. She had a few standout games last season. One game she had a double double with 12 rebounds. Despite her size, she still manages to rack up the boards.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["280691"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Leah had a strong season last year. She was a very good scoring guard, and had many high scoring games. She can step outside and shoot the three, but when her shot isn't falling she is still confident and finds other ways to score. She can get to the rim, and finish on both sides. A playmaker and high volume guard. She also rebounds the ball well and is a pesky defender.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["299401"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Sara could be in store for a breakout season and should see a bigger role in her Junior year. She is a Combo Guard, who can play on or off the ball. She has a nice jumper, and plays with high energy. She is a hustler and has a good attitude.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"edit"} /-->
