She showed her post moves, with a couple of nice drop step moves to finish in the paint. She also played very tough defense as a rim protector down low. Something that really stood out was how she showcased her guard skills. She is 6'0 and has the ability to space the  floor and handle the ball. Her team trusted her to push the ball up in transition and play on the wing. She has added facets to her game, giving her a  high level of potential. She has a good skill set to go along with her length.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["413593"],"_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":"u003ca href=u0022https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/09/5F9531A3-923D-4B7D-B63B-C6EA4F4242E9.jpegu0022u003eu003cimg class=u0022alignnone size-medium wp-image-501111u0022 src=u0022https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/09/5F9531A3-923D-4B7D-B63B-C6EA4F4242E9-300x300.jpegu0022 alt=u0022u0022 width=u0022300u0022 height=u0022300u0022 /u003eu003c/au003eAva was lighting it up from three point range all day long. She is a guard who is fun to watch. She handles the ball well, is crafty and can get her shot off in multiple ways. She has a smooth shooting form with a quick release. She can also attack the close out and get to the rim. She is a tough defender, who won't make it easy on who she is guarding. She has good basketball instincts and knows when to attack the screen or give it to the post on the roll. A playmaking guard, who is definitely proving she is a college prospect that will do well at the next level.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["496182"],"_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":"u003ca href=u0022https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/09/6120CEC0-16E8-4579-A480-75C37DF26437.jpegu0022u003eu003cimg class=u0022alignnone size-medium wp-image-501156u0022 src=u0022https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/09/6120CEC0-16E8-4579-A480-75C37DF26437-300x300.jpegu0022 alt=u0022u0022 width=u0022300u0022 height=u0022300u0022 /u003eu003c/au003eRuby was one of the quickest players I saw play at the expo. She has a very quick first step off the dribble, and good explosiveness going to the rim. She really worked hard on the boards, and was able to rebound over players bigger in size. Ruby also made a number of good entry passes into the post. A lot of upside in Ruby's game.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["264332"],"_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":"u003ca href=u0022https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/A9D1EFA7-1B97-414D-A828-A3E0103559A6-scaled.jpegu0022u003eu003cimg class=u0022alignnone size-medium wp-image-363517u0022 src=u0022https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/A9D1EFA7-1B97-414D-A828-A3E0103559A6-225x300.jpegu0022 alt=u0022u0022 width=u0022225u0022 height=u0022300u0022 /u003eu003c/au003eNatalie is elite, and was one of the top players in attendance at the expo. She is one of the top player in New England for her class. She is a 6'0 Guard/Forward. She is very fundamental and does a number thing to impact the game. She has excellent footwork, and a lethal spin move to score in the paint. She used her spin move multiple times throughout the day. She was also firing shooting from the outside. She has a very good inside out game, with the ability to pull up or get to the rim. She is a playmaker. Not many players have her size and can do what she can. So much upside in her game, and I think  division 1 college level  potential.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["450198"],"_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":"u003ca href=u0022https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/09/D195086F-0D17-439E-87EA-B232E318E7BF.jpegu0022u003eu003cimg class=u0022alignnone size-medium wp-image-501259u0022 src=u0022https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/09/D195086F-0D17-439E-87EA-B232E318E7BF-300x300.jpegu0022 alt=u0022u0022 width=u0022300u0022 height=u0022300u0022 /u003eu003c/au003eCallie had a really good showing at the expo. She had some tough finishes at the rim with both hands. She also shot well from the outside. She was really tough on defense, especially when guarding ball screens. She also was switched a couple of times on to bigger players down low. She played good defense without fouling and proved that she can guard multiple positions. She was very active on defense jumping the passing lanes. Her steals lead to easy offense for her and her team. She manages to get in the paint and score off 1 or 2 feet. She is a quick player, with good lateral quickness. I liked how vocal she she was on the court. She was constantly communicating with her team and talking on the floor.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"edit"} /-->
