<p>After introducing Prep Girls Hoops New Jersey's top 10 list of updated prospects for the 2024 class, it's time to further expand on that. There's well over 300 prospects on this current list to talk about, meaning great talent throughout, but it's time to really focus on the cream of the crop in this article, looking at the No. 11-20 prospects in the state.</p>

<p><strong>No. 11: [player_tooltip player_id='325209' first='Hope' last='Masonius'] - 5-9 PG, Manasquan</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Masonius has made a name for herself over the past three years of being an impact scorer and a leader at the top of the key. What a better place to demonstrate that at: Manasquan, one of the best girls basketball programs in the state. A smart player, a playmaker by all accounts and an all-around contributor, Masonius has done it all.</p>

<p><strong>No. 12: [player_tooltip player_id='325189' first='Cristina' last='Parrella'] - 5-9 SG, Saddle River Day</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Parrella's season began on Jan 14 and in eight games, she's showcased just why she deserves to be so high on this list. Definitely showing a great deal of improvement, much of that coming from the AAU season with Jersey Gemz, she's a downhill offensive talent with the ability to hit the three in bulk.</p>

<p><strong>No. 13: [player_tooltip player_id='325190' first='Abby' last='Misier'] - 6-4 C, Hightstown</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Hightstown has some fantastic players on its roster and Misier is the woman in the middle, making even more of a claim this year as the best forward in the state. Her height and size has made her a monster in the lane, hauling in rebounds and swatting away shots and it's showed, recording 13 double-doubles in 16 games as a junior while averaging 3.1 BPG.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>No. 14: [player_tooltip player_id='325168' first='Janasia' last='Wilson'] - 5-8 PG, Livingston</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the newest members of the 1,000 point club in New Jersey, Wilson has been on a tear for Livingston this season, averaging a career-high 25 points a game as a junior. Wilson has recorded five 30-point game so far. She's averaging over five rebounds a game, 3.5 APG, one block a game and nearly four steals a game.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>No. 15: [player_tooltip player_id='406948' first='Amarilis' last='Shubick'] - 5-5 PG, St. Thomas Aquinas</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Her junior season hasn't had the same level of offensive production as she did as a sophomore, but knowing what we've seen out of her during AAU ball, Shubick can put up a 20-piece any day of the week. What's been most impressive this season is her growth as a facilitator, averaging nearly five assists a game and 11 games of 5+ assists this season.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>No. 16: [player_tooltip player_id='325216' first='Zeynep' last='Ozel'] - 5-8 SG, Blair</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A limited amount of games to look at this season for Ozel doesn't really change how good of a player she's been in high school and how much she's developed. Another point guard who has found her calling as a facilitator, she can score in a plethora of ways, but it's how she gets her teammates involved and spreads the floor out that really shines in her game.</p>

<p><strong>No. 17: [player_tooltip player_id='325184' first='Joi' last='Johnson'] - 5-11 PF, Ewing</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The final piece of Ewing's three-headed monster from the 2024 class, Johnson has continued on a path of dominance this season similar to that of her sophomore campaign. We don't see many players as commanding on the boards as her and with eight double-doubles this season, the proof is in the pudding. Averaging 16/8.9 with 2.5 BPG and 1.4 SPG, her consistency has been fantastic.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>No. 18: [player_tooltip player_id='488637' first='Shariah' last='Baynes'] - 5-6 SG, Paul VI</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Baynes took a massive step forward this season for Paul VI and is playing with confidence as a scorer and a shooter while improving as a passer and getting in on rebounds more. Her defense has taken that same step, a pesky defender on the perimeter who's found immense success in causing turnovers.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>No. 19: [player_tooltip player_id='325170' first='Kylie' last='Cabana'] - 5-8 SG, Paramus Catholic</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Cabana continues to impress on the floor for Paramus Catholic and from fast beginnings in high school, she's found a way to hone in on her craft and continue to be an effective scorer while maintaining a stranglehold on the boards. Her defense, like last season, has created some significant trouble for opponents.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>No. 20: [player_tooltip player_id='325217' first='Julia' last='Karpell'] - 5-11 SG, St. John Vianney</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Karpell's best season by far is happening right now for St. John Vianney, one where her three-point shooting has improved and become more deadly and her passing has taken a big positive step forward. Looking at this season, with more than 1.5 made threes a game, 2.5 APG and nearly two steals a game, she's seeing the floor better and playing a more complete game overall.</p>
