Woodson does most of her work as a stationary shooter and has some of the most impressive range on this list. She's made the most 3s at 69 three-pointers and shooting 37%. Woodson also gets to the line and makes them at a 78% clip, even though 3-point shooting is probably the most impactful. It's important to stress that being a good shooter at all three levels is important.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["238886"],"_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":"Briar Woods Forward [player_tooltip player_id='238886' first='Hope' last='Drake'] is your prototypical stretch big. If you give her time to set her feet and shoot, she's lethal. The best chance you have is running her off the 3-point line with a hard closeout because if you close out late and give her time, it's money. She scored her 1000th point on a clutch dagger three last night, so congratulations to her on that.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"Madison McKenzie ","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"12123","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Gainesville ","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Gainesville is a team loaded with talent and shooting, and Junior guard Madison Mckenzie stands out the most in both aspects.

[player_tooltip player_id='149858' first='Kymora' last='Johnson'] can catch and shoot if need be, but what makes her unique is her ability to create her shot. She creates her shot from range and does it super efficiently. She's made 45 threes at a staggering 47% clip. That is a remarkable number, especially from someone who demands as much attention as she does. She also shoots 88% from the line, and if that were two percentage points up, she'd have shooting splits of 60/40/90.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["568268"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"An essential part of maturing as a shooter and player is being able to pick your shots. [player_tooltip player_id='568268' first='Amyah' last='Robinson'] does that well. She's made 41 threes at an unbelievable 53%.

She shoots the ball at around 33%, the lowest on this list. But I think this one will look much better over time because [player_tooltip player_id='239414' first='Kayla' last='Washington']'s shot is as smooth as it comes. When she gets good looks and her feet set, she's a great shooter. She made 25 threes this year on a team where she's the 3rd or 4th option. She's only a sophomore, so over time, I see her getting that percentage up as her shot IQ improves.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_player":["379583"],"_player_evaluations_7_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"If you've watched basketball long enough, you can tell if someone can shoot a basketball by just looking at them shoot a few times.
