This season was her best yet averaging 18.2 points, 5.1 assists, 4.4 rebounds, and 3.9 steals per game which was good enough to carry her team to a Final 4 appearance. Although they can up short, Hailey ended her high school career with over 1,200 points and that is no easy feat.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["261774"],"_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":"Not every team has the luxury of having an elite defender that puts it all on the line every night to win games.
